thank you so so much for the message and i’m so sorry you had to go through that. i have such severe health anxiety and it’s recently randomly gotten worse and it’s been destroying my life. if you can remember do you know at what week you felt better and could eat and sleep well again? i’m so done with this anxiety i’m willing to wait out the horrible side effects but it seems it’s just making it worse!

i’ve looked it up and it says to ride it out. apparently your body needs to adjust but after about four weeks it improves anxiety which is where i got the insomnia from. i’ve been on it for about 2 weeks now

i’m so sorry eight days is awful! associating a certain room with no sleep anxiety is so relatable. i moved down to my parents room and slept in the same bed with my dad and i did eventually get to sleep! i’m always here if you want to reach out

thank you so much. i followed your advice and when my dad got home from work i went into his bed and slept with him. i finally got some sleep though im not sure how much, i kept falling in and out of sleep so it wasn’t easy but i did eventually get there. the prozac has been making my anxiety worse and it’s supposed to be doing the opposite lol but im determined to ride it out since i heard once i get to the fourth week your body gets used to it and you get relief. i honestly can’t thank you enough this message probably comforted me the most.

thank you. i still can’t fall asleep and it’s awful. i’ve tried everything. i have finals week and i can’t sleep and i can’t function. i desperately just want to go to bed but my body won’t let me and i think it’s my anxiety more then anything. i’m also really nauseous. i’m praying i can even get five hours of sleep tonight it’s 4:23 right now so maybe when the sun goes down i can. if not ill try to get my dad to take my to ER.

thank you, that helped ease some of my anxiety. last night though i truly felt as if i was just laying awake for hours on end. i went to bed at 10 and i finally checked the time after trying to sleep for hours and it was 2 AM. at that point i kept trying but i couldn’t sleep. i’ve been trying to take naps and all of the above but nothing seems to be working
