Re: anyone else anxiety ridden and can't sleep?
I sleep just fine, just can't get to bed early enough.... that's how my stress and anxiety affects me. I try to sit and make lists and make myself 'feel better!!!'
Although, there was a while when I just coudln't fall asleep at all.... I took myself off coffee for a week (still drank soda, but not coffee) and then tried to sleep with the tv or the radio on... it totally helped bc even though I wasn't WATCHING tv (i'm so blind without my glasses or contacts), I wasn't listening to my own head, either!!!
Try valerian root too it stinks, but you can take it whenever. it's not a sleeping pill, but will help you sleep if you take it regularly.....

Re: anyone else anxiety ridden and can't sleep?
i've always had problems falling asleep and staying asleep throughout the night, and melatonin 3mg does the trick! i work at a pharmacy and my pharmacist recommended it to me. it's over the counter. i cut them in half, so even 1.5mg helps a lot. after 30-45 minutes, i'm passed out. it's like $7.99 for a bottle of 120 of the nature's bounty ones. you can get them at any supermarket or walgreens or something like that.

Re: anyone else anxiety ridden and can't sleep?
OMG -- me too -- i'm 38 days 5 hours and . . ..
can't even type the rest. my stomach crunched up.
I'm so stressed and I feel so behind!
My invitations are late -- crazy late. I just don't know what happened. I was so on top of things and then life crept in.
Also -- I'm worried that by not sleeping I'm going to sabotage myself weight wise . . .Just another anxiety to heap on the pile.

Re: anyone else anxiety ridden and can't sleep?
I've actually be oversleeping...no matter how much sleep I get I still could sleep like 6 more hours.
Obviously not good for productivity.
Example: Last night I slept from 12-7:30 (like a freakin rock)...I got up to put FSD on the bus, got back into bed at 9am and slept until noon and I swear I could have slept like 3 hours more.

I second this. I have had insomnia on and off my whole life, and melatonin does the trick!!!!!!!! FH and I live by this :)

I work nights so if I don't take any of my wonderful ambien, xanax, or valium I can't sleep. And that's when I CLEAN!!!!!!!
