No sleep HELP

Tonight day 2 no sleep. Took .5 mg ativan. Dozed off for an hour wide awake but very tired. Just took 5 mg ambien tired but no sleep. Help. will call psychiatrist in morning. Thought I would post again. Up at 4:30 for work at 6 am. Taking my zoloft before going to work has helped during day but by mid afternoon the shakes of being tired set in go to lunch in car to try taking nap, a no go. I am only on 12.5 Zoloft. How long insomnia last.

5-HTP works well in such situations. It supports positive mood and provide sleep support.

Can't take melatonin as that does keep me awake. Tried it at first and didn't sleep either.
