I never sleep well, but when my mood goes, so does sleep. It's taking its toll on me. I'm so exhausted and easily overwhelmed that I burst into tears at the slightest thing.
To top it off my partner snores making sleep harder. That is taking its toll too because he feels responsible for me not sleeping, but it's not like he's doing it on purpose.
I've tried white noise, self-hypnosis/guided meditation, ear plugs, Lorazepam. . . . Gravol and Benadryl don't make me drowsy anymore and I've developed a tolerance to Imovane (I think the US name is Ambien) so that doesn't work.
I work shift work so getting into a nighttime routine is a challenge. My partner doesn't get home from work until late so I've been eating dinner late. I'm also not getting enough exercise.
What do I do until I can fix any of these things? It's 3 am right now and the alarm goes off in 2.5 hours.
