How Is Your Sleep?

Not very good. I tend to nap in the middle of the day and then not sleep very well at night. Even when I do sleep well at night I can't seem to make it through the day. I think my meds have been making me over-tired and it hasn't been helping. My doctor knows but she says there's nothing else for me to take.
 
I have a normal sleep pattern, when I go to bet I get to sleep within 10 minutes. However, in the past, I had sleeping problems and I had to seek medical help. If you are having problems with sleeping, try listening to ASMR

Glad you are managing to sleep well!

My sleep isn't very good at the moment unfortunately. :(
 
Have you tried lavender essential oils? A few drops of lavender oils on your pillow when you go to sleep can help you sleep fast and sleep well. You can also take a lavender bath before going to bed.
 
I've tried pretty much everything, short of asking for a referral for a sleep study. The only thing that worked in the end was medication.

I'm gonna give it a couple of days and see if it gets better before taking any medicine.
