It's getting really bad and taking a toll on me physically (mentally I'm doing well, thankfully).
I drink so much caffeine to cope but I am guessing that's just messing me up more later.
I take melatonin but I don't think it's working anymore. Benadryl makes me depressed the next day for some reason? CBD doesn't really work. A hot shower doesn't help. I have a weighted blanket 🧩 and weighted eye mask.
I am thinking of doing CBT for insomnia (really strict rules around sleep hygiene) but am scared bc it does involve a bit of sleep deprivation while adjusting (no naps allowed). I haven't been exercising much lately but maybe that will help.
Does anyone have any advice? Or something that will help me fall asleep tonight? :/ 100dc for each real suggestion.
Edit: wtf

How bout you go to your doctor and then get him to send you to a sleep study and go from there.
Like a normal sane person should do when they have a medical condition.

I am a high deductible-cel but that's a good idea 👍

So am I bb, but unlike other "people" on this site I trust the experts that I pay for.
Get some sleep (in a clinic)!

how about waste several months listening to some overpaid quack who won't have better advice than rdrama, and if that doesn't work go sleep in a lab so some other overpaid quacks can pitch in as well? that's what a "normal sane" person would do, after all.

This is (yet another great example of) why poors have such a short life expectancy.

i'm most likely richer than you.
there are things for which going to a doctor is helpful, and things for which it's not.

I don't have to make up (unfounded and uninformed) reasons in order to not go see an expert, because I'm not poor.
I just go see them. Crazy I know!

sounds like visiting doctors is your hobby. in europe lots of poors have this hobby, so to me it's not the flex you think it is.
