Ambien puts me to sleep but makes me feel more anxious.

Bummer. Every person really does react to these medications so differently. It’s quite fascinating. It’s that variability that leads to controversies like the one over whether Prozac is the right med for anxiety/panic/depressive disorder or not….it wouldn’t hurt to go up to the 40 mg/day dose to see if it helps. If it doesn’t, you just reduce back to 30.

It sounds like you have a good doc who is willing to work with you, which is great!
