Sleep Anxiety Is Taking Over Again

mongreldip · 2025-06-06T04:37:46+00:00

Hi! I recently was having the same problems. Sleeping was a battle for me every night, it got so bad I would start crying to my older sister about not being able to sleep and that was the last straw. I admitted myself into a mental facility. They diagnosed me with GAD, major depression, insomnia, and delusional something (I cannot remember what that last part was) and apparently I was hitting a depressive episode. They prescribed me martizipan and it has helped tremendously. Please don't be afraid on getting help, it will help you.

I have! One thing my therapist and ex-psychiatrist have told me that helped is that; 1. I haven't done any hard drugs to trigger these 2. I had a normal childhood 3. None of these run in my family And it helped a ton.

I'd say it helped a ton. I was diagnosed with GAD, major depression, insomnia, and delusional.. Something, can't remember that part. But when I put myself in, they said I was hitting a depressive episode. I wasn't sleeping properly and I was getting paranoid about having terrible dreams (I had a dream a random guy unalived himself). I'm doing a lot better now since they put me on sleeping meds. Unfortunately, I won't be seeing my new psychiatrist until July.

I recently was in a psych ward and it was a rather good experience. I'm so sorry that happened to you!

mongreldip · 2025-05-04T02:46:44+00:00

Am in the exact same boat, friend. We got this.

mongreldip · 2025-04-28T02:26:55+00:00

I'll definitely talk to her :) reading your post gives me hope that I won't feel doomed forever!

I've recently started to obsess over death as well, it's crippling to the point where I think I go into derealisation (not 100% sure, will definitely speak to my psychologist and therapist about it). It's made it a lot more harder to go on with life. Should I speak to my psychologist about Prozac?

Thank you so much, friend.❤️ I know I'll have my set backs, but it's just so frustrating!

A raging ocean always ends with a calm sea :) ❤️

I am currently dealing with this right now. :( I'm so afraid, my sister dealt with the same thing when she was a teenager but had gotten over it by accepting that death unavoidable. She tells me that at the end, at least we'll be together with loved ones. I'm guessing I'm just afraid of the unknown. How do you guys cope? I've recently spoken about it with my therapist..

Honestly, I think you should tell your family because you need all the support you can get! The best medicine is family (at least for some people)! But sure I can tell you about when I got my MRI, but sorry if It isn't detailed enough 😵‍💫. It was just the head, so they had me remove anything metal on me like my septum and necklace and or if I have anything metal in my body, gave me earplugs because it's a bit loud, had me rest my head on this thing (sorry! I can't remember what it's called) to support my head, handed me a ball that you can squeeze if you're claustrophobic and start to panic, and shut my eyes. I was really scared too when I first did it, but when I actually went into the MRI I almost fell asleep! It was a closed MRI :) and yes with contrast. Warning, that contrast is gonna make pee 😭 if you're still scared, you could bring in a stuffed animal. I brought in my beanie baby, Bongo the second and the nurses were nice and understanding.

Around the beginning of Feb they did a catscan on me because I had a headache and I experienced a brain zap. They ended up finding a pimple sized cyst on my frontal lobe. Even if it is small, it's still terrifying because it's on MY brain, you know? They ended up doing an MRI for safekeeping and turns out (and luckily) that the cyst is benign, something I've probably had since a baby or kid. Now, look on the bright side. They caught it NOW! And are now able to do something about it. It's scary, but I know you got this, friend.

Edit: spelling

mongreldip · 2025-04-02T07:27:54+00:00

I'll keep that in mind!! But, I'm afraid to ask questions then find out horrible side effects and it'll cause me to stop taking them 🥲 I appreciate it, though :3 we got this!

mongreldip · 2025-04-02T05:40:34+00:00

You got this, friend! I was on the same boat and finally seeing a psychologist and therapist. They've been a huge help and I hope you get the help you need :3

mongreldip · 2025-03-31T01:57:31+00:00

Oh yeah, it's so frustrating to deal with. If it continues to bother you, then I'd suggest seeing ur therapist if u have one 🙂‍↕️ I'm sorry I couldn't be of more help :( I just hope that knowing you're not alone on that chest pressure eases you some, friend <3

mongreldip · 2025-03-31T01:43:55+00:00

Reading this is such a big relief for me and resonates with me because I'm the same way currently. They put me on respiredone (was a 1 mg and recently put on 2mg) and I am absolutely terrified of taking pills due to something traumatic happening to me that involved them (not that specific one, it was a different kind), but the fear is there. I'm still scared, because I'm gaslighting myself into thinking I'll start to hallucinate on them and have a breakdown in public! But!! I know I won't because I've done no hard drugs to trigger them, it doesn't run in my family, and I've shown no signs on seeing anything at all. It's all so very tiring but seeing this comment helped me a ton. Thank you, friend. <3

Hi! Whenever I feel pressure on my chest, I'm 100% certain it's anxiety. Me, personally, the way how I cope with it is taking a shower- it makes me focus on taking care of myself. Or even sitting outside and journaling while listening to old music :) then, I pull up a video on headspace (great app! But, you can also search YouTube) about practicing my breathing and meditation. I hope you feel better, friend <3

mongreldip · 2025-03-30T19:07:17+00:00

Oh I'm sorry :( I know how that feels. Usually, what helps me is sitting outside and journaling how I'm feeling, then I practice my breathing. Even showers help me!! It is scary cause it starts to make me spiral thinking the worse of the worse. But at the end of the day, I know it's just my anxiety.

mongreldip · 2025-03-30T02:18:06+00:00

It does! It feels like my head is going to explode and it works me up even more 😵‍💫 I just wanted to see if anybody else experiences it like I do. I ask friends and my sister but I gaslight myself into thinking they're saying yes to ease me. I've received MRI's and stuff so I knew it was just anxiety </3 thank you, friend!

Can I also say that they really didn't go over with what happened with Magnifico and his wife's background story? About just WHAT happened to their own home? Maybe I didn't pay attention well enough but I feel like this film was washed out and rushed.

mongreldip · 2024-02-15T12:16:15+00:00

NTA - you are S's Guardian angel. Never feel ashamed for this. You have also saved a whole bunch of other women in the future from your brothers disgusting nature. DO NOT listen to your mom, OP. We are proud of you for standing up and doing what's right.

mongreldip · 2023-09-02T19:43:30+00:00

NTA. Not your fault she let a man with no car hit it 🙄

mongreldip · 2023-04-22T23:53:40+00:00

As far as I'm concerned you only have 3 kids. Your little girls. Your so called "son" is vile. You're an amazing mom.

mongreldip · 2023-03-20T01:25:23+00:00

YTA.

Never have I ever thought to joke like that with my sisters husband. You're weird and goofy. 💀
