No I dont mean regular insomnia, I mean it feels like I literally am incapable of sleeping, as if my brain is being "blocked" from producing it or something. I am diagnosed with a dissociative disorder but im beginning to question that diagnosis as I have researched what Im feeling and came across brain encephalitis and many other similar serious things that need attention immediately, which is why im considering going to the ER. Before I consider going to the hospital, has anyone else experienced this with psychosis or dissociation? Or does anyone know what this is?

I did have some bouts with this a couple years back where I didn't sleep anywhere from 1-3 days at a time... I did end up going to the ER /hospital and they changed my meds. Now I sleep fine so if you need you feel like you have to go then by all means go.
Googling your symptoms is probably the worst thing you can do , although it can be informative on some level they will also list everything from a tiny broken toenail to a tumor and it doesn't mean you have any of that , I use to google every symptom and learned my lesson because I was causing myself much unneeded anxiety Going to the Dr. helped me get my peace of mind .
There are lots of great people on here to listen to you and talk . Good luck to you and I hope you feel better soon
