    • About Me

      I have dealt with anxiety, depression, and insomnia for the las few years. What a miserable experience. I find that few people really understand how devastating lack of sleep can be.

      From SarahMS May 28

      I'm sorry to hear you're having such a hard day. I've suffered from bad anxiety and insomnia twice in my life (5 yrs ago and recently). Do you take any meds to help you sleep? I know my biggest fear was not being able to function if I didn't sleep at night, so my doctor had me take Ambien. I also was put on Zoloft for Anxiety, so once the Zoloft kicked in I was able to eventually (after a few weeks) stop taking the Ambien. Hang in there...I know how hard it is to get through the days when you're exhausted from lack of sleep. If you haven't seen a doctor yet about the insomnia, it might be a good idea to do so. Good luck!

      Thanks for the support! What is a doctors note?What does it mean for a doctor to promise something on a doctors note?

      Thanks for your kind words. It's somewhat comforting to know there are others out there, but I also grieve for all of us because I know what we go through. :(
