A small amount of hope.
So, I finally got a bit of my insurance junk taken care of. Had a doctor's appointment yesterday. Good and bad news. The good news is they are almost certain what the problem is with my sleep. And now for the bad news. My tonsils are the size of golf balls (and I'm not even sick). They're going to have to remove them, which means I'll have to take like a week off work(which I can't afford). Apparently my tontils are so big, they're blocking my throat while I sleep and I'm not getting enough oxygen. So... they're setting me up with a specialist. They also put me on a medication called Paroxetine. Never heard of it, but it's supposed to help with anxiety. I hate being on pills, but I'm fairly desperate at this point. Hoping all of this gets resolved quickly. I really need a positive change in my life. These sleeping problems have made me depressed over the past few weeks, and I hate feeling this way. I used to have so much energy all the time. I miss that. I want to be who I was before. I used to love that person. Wish me luck, friends. I need it. I'll update as necessary. Hope you all are doing well. You all deserve it.

Wow, at least you found out what was going on. Will the Dr remove the adnoids too?
Hope everything goes well for you!!

What a mixed bag... but at least you know what\'s happening with your sleep! I hope this helps with the anxiety too. Sleep is a fickle bitch and plays nasty games with our emotions if we don\'t get enough or too much. Best of luck and let me know if you need anything since we\'re neighbors! ;o)
I certainly will. Thank you. :)
And Andra, I have no idea. Maybe?
