Insomnia. I can't sleep.

Recommended Posts

I'm getting so little sleep that it's scaring me. Some nights I can't sleep at all. Nothing seems to help me. ☹️

Have you tried melatonin?  There are products you can get a t the pharmacy.  Melatonin is a supplement of what helps get you to sleep.

Yes, ordered a lot last year during the lockdowns. No appetite either. Just nothing. 😭

You might need to talk to your doctor about this one.  The next step would be over-the-counter sleeping aids.  The "Nytol", "Sominex" brands comes to mind  in the States.

I had this same issue during my 2004-2005 episode (A bad church experience led to severe SA and near nervous breakdown due to spiritual abuse).  I was actually put on an antipsychotic called Geodon for a couple of months to help me sleep.  I would be up all night worrying to the point where I would get less than four hours of sleep a night, some nights none at all.  I would then have a full day of work.   I was only on it for about three months because it was too strong for me.  Even I didn't need it all that long and I was a nervous wreck.
