Insomnia? Wired!

I've been very on edge for two months now. I actually forgot what it feels like to be calm. My family tells me I've been a bit loco online too. I feel like I'm here, there, and everywhere. Not to sound too Dr. Suess. I'm actually having trouble sleeping at night (again! I had trouble when I was a child as well.) Luckily, I have more resources to help with the sleep issue but it doesn't feel like enough. No matter how tired I am, no matter how busy/overwhelming my day is, I'm back to listening to ASMR or ocean sounds, completely tense with no sleep. The latest I've been up is 2 am. Right now, it's 12:30, nothing. I've cut down on caffeine, tried different lullabies, ASMR (as mentioned before) along with ocean sounds. I have an appointment with my shrink after he comes back from his vacation. Any advice to hold me over until then is appreciated. #Autism #Anxiety #Wired #Insomina #adviceishelpful
