Sleep!

For the last few years I’ve struggled to fall asleep however the last few months leading up to my diagnosis it’s just gotten worse which is awful as I’m starting a new job and the hours are longer with earlier starts.

Sleep

Hello!! Does anyone else have NO problem falling asleep at night, but an annoying habit of waking up several times a night. ...for no reason? I go back to sleep just fine afterwards, till I do it again, usually 2-3 times a night.

Sleep

I’m sure this is already been discussed but for those of you who do not sleep what do you use? What have you been prescribed? I can’t have marijuana or anything with CBD because of my job function. I take magnesium every day and I used to try Benadryl but that stopped working. I also used to take va...
