Welcome. I have loads of pillows and fluffy throws and tea always brewing in hopes it will help lull us to sleep..

years ago I tried the " I dont care if i sleep or now" mentality .. If i can go to bed and sleep YAY , If I go to bed and just lie there letting my physically body at least rest then FINE .. Of course after 4-5 days of no actualy sleep I start to lose rational thought..

What else has your Doctor tried ???

Welcome again, Hope you find comfort here knowing you are not alone
