Best Sleep Med You've Used?
I have terrible Insomnia/Sleep Apnea. I take a combination of Diphenhydramine, Melatonin, and recently a prescribed med Doxipen. I still only get 3-5 hours sleep, then wake up for hours, trying to go back to sleep. Usually end up taking another Melatonin gummy, a 25 miligram Diphenhydramine , and a sip of liquid Diphenhydramine to wash it down. Still takes me hours to go back to sleep.
A full nights sleep, is extremely rare. (I know you have the same problem @Ditch-Runner.)
Anyone have anything you rely on/use.
I'm so exhausted all the time. (Even upon waking up.) I'd love to be able to sleep.
Input appreciated and solicited.

No, seriously, I used to go to bed and be asleep before I finished my prayers. It seems after the prostate surgery, I don't sleep as well. I can't take drugs as I have to drive a school bus and am subject to pee in the cup at any time.

I wish.
I take multiple meds in order to fall asleep.
I will (maybe) sleep 3-5 hours and then wake up.
It will take me hours to go back to sleep. I usually give up and go take another round of meds, around 3-4 am. (I usually work the late shift [11-8, 12-9] and try and sleep in, until 9-10 am.)
I spend hours, in bed trying to go to sleep.
Sleep has been elusive, for years.
My Cardiologist, (on very good terms with,) recently told me, "It's your Sleep Apnea, Stupid. Your body is telling you not to go to sleep, because you can not breathe."
Me - "Yeah, I know."
