I've had sleep onset insomnia for over 20 years. It got really bad about 7 years ago. I took Ambien for years - starting out, 1/2 of a 5mg pill worked great, by the end I was taking 20mg each night and still not going to sleep. (I used to leave myself post-it notes of what I watched on TV since I didn't remember anything - fortunately I was never one of those people who take it then eat or drive or whatever. I'm a boring zombie, apparently.) I switched to diphenhydramine, that worked for a while but not well. Now I take 10mg melatonin and 25mg doxylamine and it's working better than anything I've taken in years.
I don't think I feel groggy the next day compared to other things I've taken, but then you have to consider my quandary - if I don't get sleep I'm USELESS the next day, so what's groggy for you might be normal for me.

I have spent less on ebooks than I did on pbooks and I still buy some pbooks.

I was thinking about this after I saw that post. In my case, I am more likely to go ahead and buy something than I was with pbooks, but my threshold for price is lower so I'm not
spending more.
