I started using light therapy in the mornings about a month ago and I take a Vitamin D3 supplement. We were trying that out to see if it helped with depressive symptoms.

I take Clonazopam at night before bed to help with anxiety and I always sleep like a rock. I started taking fish oil a few days ago and the last few nights I've woken up numerous times unable to go back to sleep. I'm wide awake in the middle of the night and my mind is racing. I googled "fish oil insomnia" and found this forum. The fact that others seem to have had the same problem as I have had and coupled with the fact that I'm still taking the Clonazaam and never wake up like this leads me to believe there is a correlation between fish oil and insomnia.
