I've been having lots of trouble sleeping for the past few months. it's gotten to the point where i have to take 4+ benadryl to sleep at all.

Dangerous: High doses of Benadryl at bedtime can cause severe cognitive problems the next day. Good sleep habits, melatonin, or prescription trazdone may be helpful. Avoid benzo prescription meds.
