I wanted off methadone (prescribed for chronic pain by doctor and the longest withdrawls symptoms were experienced) as I had been on for almost 4 years straight and after getting off I swear I could not sleep and I mean maybe 1 hour a night sleep if lucky. The doctor gave me seroquel and worked AWESOME!! The only thing was he said it could cause type 2 diabetes but only if used for long periods of time.What you want in order to stay asleep is Seroquel. It's actually a psych med, but given in WAY lower doses for insomnia. Psych dose is 200mg or above. Insomnia dose is typically 25mg. It doesn't really put me to sleep, but it sure keeps me asleep.
Be aware that it will make you extremely hungry. I used to sleep walk and eat on it. One night I woke up in front of the fridge eating a stick of butter hahaha. I got off of it after that. But don't let that scare you away from it. I was on a psych dose when that happened (200mg). For insomnia you're taking about 1/10th of that.
