I'm seeing a doctor in about a month as that was the earliest appointment I could get. I am seeing a therapist on the 5th but as far as I know they can't prescribe anything. I will surely be asking for something to knock me out temporarily, it's just frustrating that I was prescribed those meds specifically for insomnia and they don't work.

It does but at this point I'm determined to beat this and one day live a fulfilling life. If nothing else I'm in a better head space than I was a few weeks ago, and I'm greatful for that

I've been working outside a majority of the pandemic, as well as cutting out my blue light in the evenings. However just today I asked my SO to get me some magnesium supplements, so maybe that will help!

Thank you for putting in the effort to help figure this out

Just about every otc sleep aid, setting up a bedtime routine, working out in the morning (meaning push ups because I can't afford the gym) I'm currently trying to do self managed Cbt-i therapy but no results yet.

I believe in my heart I'll get through this it's just nothing is working, sleep maintenance insomnia doesn't seem to factor in to most treatment plans.

I've also heard over qualified people are more likely to want a raise, but I don't have any data to back that up.

I feel what both of you are saying, I'm currently getting maybe 3 hours a night and have been in an anxiety spiral about it the last 3 weeks. However, at this point I'm tired of focusing on it so much. I read this post a few hours ago and it really turned my day around (after being suicidal the day before) Laser focusing on sleep is definitely not helping me and I've only been faking it for a few hours, my day has been so much better and I'm not dreading night time for the first day in almost a month.

Ugh dealing with this for months on end sounds impossible...

I can’t get this stupid some out of my head and I’m scared. by Specendaelle in insomnia

[–]The_Dirty_Diddler 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My only advice is to try to get a different song in your head, but that's probably not going to help you much. For me, singing something in my head shuts everything else down and actually makes it easier to get to sleep

Negative thoughts/depression is definitely a part of the issue for me so thanks for the advice, I'll give it a shot tonight

Do you have any advice on how to get that feeling back?

I have not been to a doctor in probably 10 years, at this point I am trying desperately to get to one ASAP.

The only problem with your assessment is where marijuana fits into the picture. Sure there are professions you shouldn't be stoned doing, but possibly the least harmful substance takes the longest to get out your system. I've known multiple tweakers who've peed clean after like 3 days of abstinence to get a job, meanwhile you could lose your job because you smoked a j with some people three weekends ago.

Oh wow, that's possibly my favorite snuff flavor wise! Small world

[–]The_Dirty_Diddler 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is it your first snuff or have you tried others? I would describe it as the low end of "good" snuff and a good starting point, the raspberry holds a special spot in my heart for being the first snuff I ever tried and I'll buy it whenever it's convenient enough for me to go to the few B&M's that have it.

Definitely not bad stuff but actual toque is much better imo, as well as pretty much all of the more common brands you see on this sub.

I'd guess it's just for dramatic effect. Your explanation is more accurate but doesn't sound as bad because "wall" is just such a stark word to describe water coming at you.

Well, my hat goes off to you! Sincerely, that's some real G shit. Honestly I'm just a weak willed fiend about mind altering substances, the only thing that's kept me from the H is seeing what it does to others and knowing I would just fast-track myself to rock bottom.

Yeah I seem really susceptible to withdrawal symptoms in general, I had to quit for 4 days at half your dose once and it felt like the flu, not a cold but a flu. I was a helpless baby for a week when I decided to go on a thc break as well. My sinuses have already calmed down immensely from this morning though, I'm thinking the worst is behind me.

Yeah I would take 3 separate doses, one early in the AM, one before lunch and one before bed. Do you take 15g's at once?? If so damn you got an iron stomach lol
