    Lucky you wish I could sleep better

    In the beginning felt a bit hung over first thing. now providing I take it 9 ish in the evening Im ok.

    I take 50mg in morn and 50mg at night.

    Try changing the times you take it.

    Good Luck

    I also have the same sleep issues I need to sleep every 5 or so hours for 20 mins to an hour the more I fight it the worse it gets and i develop a headache until I sleep.

    Also at night I sleep about 6 or so hours and it is very broken.

    Other side effects i am having is memory issues I find myself forgetting many things and now keep toes no ensure I do not.

    I also have ringing in my ears of varying loudness from a minor ring to loud enough to be unable to hear others.

    I also have balance issues at times.

    While I know I have no answer to fix these things rest assured that you are not alone in these side effects but I feel they are much better then the cursed anxiety that was plaguing my life.

      I sleep with great difficulty I have to sleep/nap atleast 2 times a day for a duration of 20mins to an hour then the main night sleep which is only 6 hours or so.

      Hope that explains it a bit better for you.
