What is the best medication for you for insomnia?

Olanzapine works best for me but it makes me eat all grocery store empty

trazodone knocks me out in 15min if i take it on an empty stomach.

olanzapine made me gain 15kg. my psych said you can gain up to 2kg/week. he, himself, used olanzapine and gained 20kg in 2 months.
but it's a great crisis med. never heard about it being used to insomnia, great to know!
also, quetiapine is another knock out but it also gives a lot of hunger, and you wake up dizzy, basically dizzy all day long. i took 50mg and 25mg and it was basically the same effect.

Lemborexant has started to be effective for me after a week.
I can get enough sleep, but I do experience weirdly realistic nightmares.

For me, I use Hydroxyzine. It is a powerful antihistamine, that in the U.S. can be prescribed "off label" for sleep issues.
