Well firstly ending it all isnt the answer and may well not bring you peace at all.

Secondly there a re a few good things for sleep, warm baths, or drinks, reading in a quite room or putting something familiar on the tv quietly, these work for me. If not try writing down some of your anxieties or bad thoughts before bedtime so theyre out of your head a little.

hello my friend,

Running on less than 3 hours sleep right now my friend.

Death may seem to offer some comforting options, but it doesn't. If you want any rewards, you need to keep yourself alive. Have you seen a doctor about your feelings?

For sleeping, I have found keeping a journal helpful. I try to write in it before I go to bed, get my anxieties out and noting things I want to remember. Makes sleeping easier.

Also, I find the journaling, helps me get things out. Allows me to "do" things in a safe way to get them out of my system.

Also, I find loud music helps for the pain inside. Scream it out to your fears & demons.

I agree with sleepy. Also please remember that many of us have been through what you are feeling at this moment. We are all glad that we survived. I want you to survive this. Things will get better. See your doctor please, tell them how you feel. Please get professional help and lean on us for support. Hugs.

I am so understanding of this nod sleeping and not staying asleep.... I get racing thoughts.

PLEASE try this. RADIO prefferably talk. TV ON even if it is an infomercial.

Get lost in the content...

HONEY that is the ony way I can get a few hours at a time of some kind of sleep.

BEST of luck to you.

Thank you for your help. I have been getting professional help...in fact Im going to my psychologist in four hours. I hope that she can add to all of your help.

Glad that you are talking to someone about how you feel. As for sleeping, when i used to have trouble sleeping my therapist told me about a sleeping aid called melatonin..its herbal and it helped me a lot. Maybe give that a try. Hang in there!
