This has been going on for about 10 weeks. At first I went to the docs about insomnia as I thought it was just that (although now looking back it wasn't just that)
She gave me Zopiclone up to 2 a night. Sometimes they worked, sometimes they didn't
Went back last week, in state of anxiety...awful thoughts, feel like I am being strangled all the time, and overwhelemed by smallest task.
She gave me AD Trazadone, which is fantastic for insomnia apparently {hmm}, but not for me.
Still not sleeping, am a teacher, currently on 1/2 term, and am dreading nxt week. Woke up at 2.45am, and never went back to sleep last night...this is pretty normal.
Really feel as if I just cannot function like this. I know a lot of it is due to anxiety, but am falling apart.
Can anyone help? I also have small dd 2 who is lovely, but incredibly hard work, and v demanding....want to run away really...
