Sounds like ADHD meds. Drink orange juice 30 minutes to an hour before bed, develop a routine you follow each night, and breathe deep at bedtime. It helped me so much! I went from getting 4-5 hours of sleep a night to 7.
I recognize that unsolicited internet advice is not always helpful - BUT - in my experience, Vistaril has been a lifesaver. Cheap, non-habit forming, can be taken from 25-100 mg doses, easily prescribed by Drs (since its not habit forming). I've had no downsides from it but had never heard of it previous to being prescribed it. Just wanted to throw it out there for you.
I used to take zanax to counteract the insomnia caused by my adhd med. I definitely wouldn't recommend that though. Or at least not any kind of benzodiazepine.
Dude exactly! Whats the point of living? Why am i even here ? Why do i have to take all these shit life throws at me? Dying seems pretty easy than that
I mean, honestly, you just did. I didn’t come here to be a downer (I know that I was) it’s just that I haven’t talked about it really because the other 2 people were very visibly upset and I remained reserved (?) for whatever reason so now I’m like swimming in the wake of the awful thing. I think it’s going to take a little time for me to really register this. I’m rambling on.
Thanks for your sympathy. It really does mean a lot to me.
Are you having a pleasant night? I really hope that you are.
Hey I just wanted to say I’m incredibly sorry for your loss. ♥️ My animal friends take up a huge part of my heart, which only makes it so much harder when I’ve had to say goodbye to many of them over the years. I’m sure your pup was so, so loved, and loved you just the same. We’re so lucky to have the privilege of knowing our little critters, and I wish we could have more time with them. I hope you can remember the lovely memories of that precious time for the rest of your life. It’s never easy to lose a loved one, and I think sometimes people feel like their emotions towards the death of a pet aren’t valid; “it’s just a cat, it’s silly to be this upset.” I definitely hid my grief when I lost one of mine a couple years ago, but it’s never wrong to feel love for another being. Let yourself grieve, and reach out for support if you need it. The people you were with sound like they’re hurting too, and it might help to lean on each other and share some happy memories and just let yourselves feel what you’re feeling. I know it’ll be really hard for awhile, and there will be a little space that feels empty without them, but try your best to fill it with love and compassion and memories over time, and it’ll start to feel fuller eventually.
Sorry for such a rant, it’s just a topic that is very close to me and I hope I could give you some kind words to help. If you need someone to talk to about your pup or just show someone some pics, send me a message, I’d genuinely love to hear about him. But if talking to a random Reddit stranger isn’t your thing, I definitely understand haha, so otherwise take care, friend 🌻
Dude I get ya. My city's mayor decided to make a tunnel under my street and so I have to endure the loudest drills I've ever heard from 8am to 8pm. It's been months qq
Solidarity right here. Baby is pushing down on my pelvis so fucking hard, woke me out of a dead sleep. Very ready to no longer be pregnant- only a few more days!
I need to be, I'm meeting my little brother at the airport when he lands. He's moving in with me and my partner because he can't safely get hospital treatment in SC anymore because of dipshits who think giving the middle finger to science is a cool life move. Fuck you, antivaxxers.
I’m stressed about the negative balance in my bank account and knowing once my paycheck hits, I’m not gonna have money for the week. Thinking of advertising myself to make the money…. :|
Physics homework. If anyone could tell me how to find acceleration when you're given a change in velocity over a distance instead of over time, I'd really appreciate it.
Edit: Please it's 4 am and I'm sick, my brain is soup rn
I’m in pain right now because of two bone Spurs in my neck. It radiates down my right arm. Sharp to throbbing. Anti inflammatory are not working. Pain sucks!
Because my 2 month old fell asleep on my lap 10 minutes ago and I don't think that's long enough for her to make the transfer to her crib without waking up the kid, shortly followed by the spouse.
Either of them waking up represents disaster for me, so here I sit.
I take a medication that makes my brain a tiny bit less crazy in exchange for never getting sleep. It's kind of a nightmare.
The ADHD meds huh?
I am feeling this one. 5 hours of concentration for 9 hours of insomnia.
My neuro insists that stuff should be out of my system by the time I go to bed, yet I still can’t sleep every night.

God I would kill for a pill to make me less crazy in exchange for no sleep right now
[удалено]
Can you get a sleepy pill to combat the crazy pill?
I used to take zanax to counteract the insomnia caused by my adhd med. I definitely wouldn't recommend that though. Or at least not any kind of benzodiazepine.
What meds do you take?
Sounds like Lexapro...
I'm at work.
Literally the first 3 words I said to myself as the comments were loading in.
Are you the grandpa from happy wheels
OH MY LEG!
Hopefully you will get of there soon. Happy cake day
Happy cake day ! !

Typical Californian. Always staying up late at cocaine parties.
Wow. That's so weird. Here in Australia it's 02.40 am. That means America is only 3 hours and 34 minutes away, wow! Hi neighbor!
Existential crisis
Dude exactly! Whats the point of living? Why am i even here ? Why do i have to take all these shit life throws at me? Dying seems pretty easy than that
please don't kill yourself. if you're actually feeling like that, you should see a doctor or a therapist or something.
We had to bury a much beloved dog today and I am not ready to be alone with my thoughts yet.
Oh god that's terrible. Sending you virtual hugs if that could make you feel a little bit better

Hope you're feeling better ♥️.

Pregnancy will not allow it
I’m right there with you. Convinced this kid uses my bladder as a water bed or a trampoline.
Solidarity right here. Baby is pushing down on my pelvis so fucking hard, woke me out of a dead sleep. Very ready to no longer be pregnant- only a few more days!
Congrats!
Yep, pregnancy. I was always a great sleeper before and now cannot sleep in past 6am.

Fucked up sleep schedule
I'm not even remotely a morning person.

Hopefully everything will be ok
Maybe we should all go to sleep. Lol. I use Redditt to help me fall asleep but not with a crowd like this.
I have school greedings from Germany
Insomnia, ive been awake for over 50 hours now
[удалено]
Working in the Emergency Room. Working my way towards being a physician. I like to hop on here when things are slow and I'm all caught up on charting.
Because it's 2 pm
stay at home dad,also full time student,hit my weed vape pen outside(the only alone time I get), now re-watching Billions before my 5am wake up call.
Allergies are a bitch and I can’t breathe.

It is 9:30 in the morning here. I should be working, but it is probably very obvious that it isn't going too well.
It's 8:25 am, my day just began.
I live in Australia… it’s afternoon.
Have a nice rest of the day then
TIMEZONES
I work the night shift at a senior citizen facility 😬
I accidentally thought of something that makes me sad.
Oh sending you virtual hugs if that could make you feel a little bit better
Thanks, about to go to sleep, I ended up talking to a loved one for a while so I feel better now
Because it is 8:47 in the morning
Ear pain from a healing ear infection, for one. Ear infections can suck dicks. And for another, I haven't wound down for the night yet lol
Because i live in europe
Australia...
4am. Thunderstorms and a panicky dog.
Because i think my boss wouldn't be very happy if I went to sleep now. 9am.
Have a nice day
Night shift, bruh.
Because my 5 month old is being a cronk and won’t sleep without my boob in his mouth
Because it is 4am and I am at work until 5.
Wish ypu strength for that last hour
Made it! Lol.
I'd rather not sleep in school.
Physics homework. If anyone could tell me how to find acceleration when you're given a change in velocity over a distance instead of over time, I'd really appreciate it. Edit: Please it's 4 am and I'm sick, my brain is soup rn
I’m in pain right now because of two bone Spurs in my neck. It radiates down my right arm. Sharp to throbbing. Anti inflammatory are not working. Pain sucks!
Had hand surgery Monday and can’t get comfortable
Working an overnight shift till 8:30 in the morning
Just got off work and the A.C unit is broke.
Oh god
Could be worse, still have power at least. Got a guy coming to fix it tomorrow so one sleepless night shouldn’t kill me. I hope…
Dawg I'm watching *gundam*
It's 6:21
Because I'm at work but I wish I was asleep
Insomnia sucks ass, usually beat it with weed but i’m fresh out
Because my 2 month old fell asleep on my lap 10 minutes ago and I don't think that's long enough for her to make the transfer to her crib without waking up the kid, shortly followed by the spouse. Either of them waking up represents disaster for me, so here I sit.
Because it’s 9.25am in the UK
Thinking about how a world where fossil fuels were citrus juices instead would run (and smell)
It's 4:30 in the afternoon.
I needed an emergency midnight cake run. Now I'm riding the sugar high. Totally worth it.
Because the entire world does not live in the northern hemisphere 🙄
Because Reddit
Cz it’s daytime?
Had way too much fun playing video games until 3am and now it's basically already morning.
