Wake Up Too Early

Posted by Jim on May 02, 1998 at 06:37:28:
I have no problem falling asleep, or staying asleep, until early morning. But invariably I'll wake up almost precisely at 4 am, unable to return to sleep. I'm then sleep deprived for the entire day. My doctor prescribed amitriptyline, but even a fraction of a tablet makes me feel _under water_ the following day. (I have to admit, I'm not keen on taking drugs anyway.) Anyone have success with similar symptoms?
