Does anyone here suffer from chronic or occasional insomnia? I've been having a lot of trouble sleeping lately and it's giving me anxiety while I'm awake.

Yes, it happens sometimes. I need about 50 Ambien a year. So it's not terrible, but it's more times than I'd like.

Yes *hugs* I have to take a prescription sleep pill about once a week.

Yes and no. It's bad for me in the summer because the air is suffocating. I need to feel cool when I sleep. Also, anxiety will keep me up. So, it depends on what's going on in my life.

Not all the time. I wasn't diagnosed with insomnia per say, but I was given medicine to help me sleep to use as needed, not every day.

I really wish OTC things would help me. But Melatonin and all those herbs are USELESS!

Last night was one of those nights. I tried falling asleep for 5 hours on my own, and then had to take a prescription, only to get 4 hours of sleep after that.

Once in a while, but when I do, I know it's the most helpless feeling in the world.

I slept, but it's still before sunrise on a Monday morning.

Insomnia is the worst thing I've ever experienced. I wouldn't wish sleep problems on my worst enemy.

I normally can fall asleep just fine, but then if it's a bad night, I'll wake up every 2 hours.

Sometimes I do. I know how defeating it feels. I wish no one ever had to experience this feeling

I do badly in the summer until the AC starts working. Heat for some reason gives me anxiety and I can't breathe normally.

I've been through it, the night sweats, the panic, being hot and cold at the same time, the anxiety, looking at the clock every 22.5 minutes. Couting sheep doesn't work. Being tired doesn't work. It's horrible.
