After writing my op, I was thinking and realized that my not being able to sleep stems from abuse I suffered from my now ex-husband. I have gotten my new med and will be taking it this evening with the hopes that it will work.
I saw my t today and we talked about this. We talked about how my mom is more than likely just wanting for me to be getting into a routine for when I am able to go back to work. (I've been off 3mths for a broken foot.) However it is her tone that is condensending. We also discussed how she has reacted to other big issues in my life, and decided that talking to her about my sleep problems would cause me more stress and anxiety.
I use 2 different alarm clocks set for 2 different times, and these normally wake me. I need to work on getting a good bedtime routine down so that I can be a more functional member of society. Baby steps right? I think that once I get on a better sleep schedule, my issues with my mom will get better. Once I start working again, I will feel like I have a purpose to need to sleep.
