Hey guys!

Just starting week 6 of Prozac and I haven't been sleeping well at all. The doctor thinks its just my anxiety not the medication and gave me some tips to try to get myself into a sleeping habit.

What do you guys do to combat the anxiety and the insomnia it causes? Im so tired which is making me more anxious and panicky today! I find that when Im really tired, my thoughts are more anxious and negative than if I get a good night sleep. Does anyone else feel that way?

When I was taking Citalopram, I was is a similar situation, I have always struggled to get to sleep though, even when I was a child. I took Valerian for nearly 10 years and it helped immensely. You can get it from the pharmacy or health food stores. It works!
