Sleep and anxiety

I am currently on Prozac .. 6 weeks now. My sleep gas not been good for years since a trauma. Could the Prozac vibe hindering the sleep? My dr says it should eventually help as my anxiety decreases sleep should come. Thanks...

I have had a anxiety sleep issues for years and have been able to manage ok through natural means i.e. meditation( guided meditations especially) breathing exercises , healthy diet . I have tried Prozac and lexipro per doctors orders and and my anxiety was through the roof. Once size does not fit all. I hate drugs in my system but I did finally find some relief with Trazadone. It is an older antidepressant used in larger doses but they are now prescribing it in smaller doses as a sleep aid. A small dose would be 50 mg. Do not go any more than that when you are new to it. At that dose it is considered safe and non addictive except in your head maybe. Because of the drug crisis, doctors hand it out like candy. I have been doing it off and on for quite a few years . My goal is always to get off of it when I am ready. I recently had a major trigger. So that and therapy has helped a great deal. I am in a much better place.
