Hello thanks for asking from HCM for your health related queries

I can understand your concern. You have depression and have been prescribed Trazodone for sleep. If you are not able to sleep on Trazodon then you can discuss with your psychiatrist to increase the doses of Trazodon and this will help you in sleep. Alternatively you can discuss with your doctor to prescribed Valium or Diazepam as this drug was causing good sleep in your case for some time. Try to avoid using the Valium for long time because the drug is know to cause dependence and it has high abuse potential. Please visit your doctor for prescription.

Hope this helps you. Thanks and Take care
