Massive issues with sleep and desperate for a solution.
Massive issues with sleep and desperate for a solution.
I’ve been struggling with sleep issues for over a decade now. My Doctor has prescribed me all sorts of medication, all of which has had many adverse side effects. What I do know that works, is Xanax. My wife was prescribed it for some stress issues and occasionally will give me one so I can finally sleep. Obviously asking my Doctor, “can I have Xanax” Will not go well. I’ve eluded to it in ways and the response has always been along the lines of “that’s habit forming, I’d rather you try this”. Of the many medications prescribed, none have worked. Resorting to the dark web is something I’d really rather not do. Fentanyl laced drugs took my sister and it’s a road I hope to not have to explore. Any suggestions?

I have had frequent problems with sleep too. Due to trauma I have no memories up that come up when I'm about to sleep.
Suggestion from me is fine a good therapist, not for medication but to understand why exactly ots happening, if it's physical or mental. It's ok and completely understandable to deal a therapist and talk to your doctor more to not try to necessarily solve it. But to figure why it happing in the first place.
Get a therapist that doesn't try to fix you or try to make you fit into mold. Therapist are supposed to help you discover things about yourself and understand your self better.
This is from my decade's long experience with mental and physical health problems.
As a pessimistic introvert who generally avoids people at all costs, it seems so against my grain. But what I’ve been doing has obviously not been working. Hoping I can find someone genuine out there.
I love that some douche downvoted this. What a miserable slob you’d need to be.
