Never ending nightmares yesterday and couldn't sleep at all last night because of them. Still can't. I had to full on drug induce myself into getting an hour and half power nap in when I meant for it to be longer. I lay my head down to sleep and I'm out for a few minutes and wake up scared because I'm falling back into the nightmares. I've been doing good about not having these as often but now I can't seem to control them at all. I don't take prazosin anymore, so that's not really an option. Is there any natural option to take here? I smoke but it has never helped me sleep unless baked into granola. The caffeine isn't helping me sleep, either (just makes me groggy). Alcohol isn't even working here and it usually gets me a couple hours, now I can't even get a minute. I don't know if my anxiety is just that high lately because of moving and having to leave my job or what. I've also felt sick non-stop for over a month now and the doctor still hasn't figured out what's wrong. He wants to do a PET scan to see if my cancer's relapsed. Could all of this be making the nightmares/insomnia worse?
