Thanks for the post. You mentioned that using Benzo’s are not a good idea for treating insomnia when compared to antidepressants. What is your opinion about hypnotics like Ambien, Sonata and Lunesta? Ambien CR and Lunesta are approved for the longterm treatment of insomnia. What is your usual first line treatment in individuals that present with insomnia as part of their depressive disorder?

For the past year or so, I’ve been having very restless sleeping habits. I don’t have a problem falling asleep but I tend to wake up 2-3 times a night. I just figured it was typical, but I didn’t know it was related to my depression.
