What night time sleep aids work for you? I'm struggling to find one that works. I've tried hydroxyzine, trazadone and now Xanax.

Ok, this whole counting sheep thing is for the birds! I have painsomnia + anxietysomnia (I am pretty sure I just made that word up lol) followed up by nauseasomnia....gonna be a long night.... I hope everyone here is either comfortably in their 3rd dream by now or just about there.

I’m not sleeping well..hardly in fact I might get anywhere between 1-3 hours of sleep and I definitely need more. I work 12 hour shifts at work and like literally right now I feel absolutely horrible I feel as if I have not slept at all I went to the er last night got discharged around 4 am this morning they even told me to tell my psychiatrist that she needs to do something I am tired of hurting in my chest and it radiates to my back sometimes my legs makes me feel as if I can’t breathe right God please please allow me to start sleeping better I’ll do anything you want me to

Sleep is for the well.... #Insomnia #Fibromyaliga #PTSD

Ugh I cannot get to sleep!!!

The last week or so I’ve been awake until at least 4am, it’s driving me insane. I’ve tried loads of stuff, not sleeping, going through the day no naps, meditating, rain sounds, forest sounds (too many sounds) and I tried the ‘Calm’ app sleep stories which didn’t help either.

Who said when you’re ill all you do is rest/sleep?! LIES.

Anyone else struggle to sleep but feel like you've tried everything? Partner put up new bed with new comfort support mattress, I was so excited to finally sleep.
3am woke as usual with intense pain, took 20 minutes to get out of bed due to the pain and now downstairs.
