Hmm, maybe stop taking St John Worts for a while and see if it helps. If so, perhaps there's something else you can take that has the same beneift for which you first started taking it for in the first place.

I can't stop repeating the same 2 lines of a song I heard during the day. Or I can't stop dwelling on the information I took in during the day, just kind of repeating it over and over in my head like a broken record.
On top of that I have anxiety during the night as well as very active dreams. Not bad, just unceasing. I can't remember the last dreamless sleep I had.
I used to sleep very peacefully but my nights have been so unsound that I don't even feel like going to sleep.
I have been going over a lot of hard stuff in therapy lately and just started an AlAnon group so I was wondering if it's all like "psychological fallout."
Maybe I should try meditation. I've been pretty bad at it in the past, though I could try again.
I have tried a low dose of trazadone and it made it worse (almost passed out upon standing) so I'm so hesitant to try meds. But maybe a different one is the way to go.
Just wanna sleep soundly.
