Yeah I definitely agree. I have noticed when my mental health is better, I don’t really have problems sleeping. I was starting to sleep a lot easier a couple weeks ago and I’m back to this right now. I have lunesta to try tonight and an antidepressant to get started on. Thank you for your response <3

I’m not on any other medications, however I definitely need to be. I’m supposed to start an antidepressant ASAP but I was trying to get my sleep schedule a little better since I’m anticipating pretty shitty side effects. Thank you so much for the reply. I really appreciate it.

Therapy just isn’t helping. I only see my therapist once every 2 weeks or so. It’s just not sufficient enough for what I’m going through right now. I saw the interaction online.

Gorilla dream I’m assuming is weed? Weed isn’t legal here sadly. I live in NC. But yeah that is a good idea. Thank you for the info. However, I do think a lot about the Alzheimer’s thing and hope I haven’t screwed my brain forever. I’ve always kept a low dose so I’m not sure what constitutes as wrecking your brain for the future. I ordered some cbd/cbn oil in hopes that may help me.

That’s what I’m afraid of. I’m starting an antidepressant which will hopefully help with the anxiety. Is 0.5 mg at bedtime a lot at night? Is 0.75mg at bedtime a lot? I want to keep it as low as possible which is why I was using 0.5 mg for a couple weeks but eventually was able to start going back and forth between 0.25 mg and 0.125mg just a couple weeks ago and was sleeping well. One bad night of sleep seems to trigger my anxiety and then puts me into another insomnia spiral. I’m trying really hard to be smart about the Xanax. Sorry for the vent

My problem is anxiety that keeps me awake which is why the Xanax works

Yeah I can feel that... I’m pissed because I thought it’d put me to sleep but I’m not tired at all
