After a viral infection and so much stress/anxiety. A night of no sleep turned into this hell.
I've been taking Ativan for a few days out of the week to sleep but I'm fearful
I'll become dependent and scared of withdrawal symptoms .so I don't really want to take that anymore .
My sleep is so light and fragmented I literally wake up every 1 hr the whole night with vivid dreams . I feel like I'm a half wake /half asleep state and never get deep sleep. Im really scared but don't let anxiety consume me all day . I also stop trying to focus on the issue all day
I see a sleep therapist for CBT , do meditation, take a hot bath, hot yoga, chamomile tea and try to relax .
However, no matter what I do My sleep pattern isn't shifting .
What else can I do . I feel like I'm
Not going to ever get any restful sleep .this is killing me and there's days that I cry . I try telling myself this will pass, I will sleep well again , and try to be positive . I just feel like this isn't going away it's been over 1 month .
I'm a try sleep restriction and have been doing sleep hygiene the best I can
I can't keep living like this . Help me
