Once per day
Question:
OK…Approximately once per day, I get really tired…Is this from the Xanax (I take regularly) or the Zoloft…It never seems to last very long, just 30-45 minutes…But what in the heck…I guess it could just be me from lack of sleep at night (I wake up frequently with the anxiety)… Later, — Charles Phipps

– Hide quoted text — Show quoted text – Hi Charles, I had never (after toddlerhood) been able to take a nap during the day until I started on xanax. I get through the days ok if I have something constructive to do but if I am just sitting around the house, I find that I need an hour or so nap every day. Sometimes I just fall into it without even realizing it..scary huh? This is together with a good nights sleep–which I am guaranteed these days with .5mgs around 9pm. So I suspect it’s the xanax but of course YMMV. I have never been on Zoloft so I can’t speak to that. I’m sorry to hear you are awakened during the night–my pre-xanax nights were filled with insomnia/anxiety for several years. Have you considered a bit higher dose just before bed? Maybe you could check with your doctor on that–it may help. little bear
Well, I awake without anxiety most times…Except toward when I have to get up, them I am really anxious…I expect it is the Zoloft doing a number on me a bit…I really do think it is the Xanax causing my sudden sleep urges… — Charles Phipps
