Hi My name is Wenchester from the Philippines. I work in a ship before and I experience insomnia whilw workimg onboard because I work at night or graveyard shift. When it start I was so drunk a day before it happens and I could not put myself to sleep then after a day I visited the doctor and he gave me 3 valium. After 3 days he gave me valeriana viti a kind of supplememt that promotes good sleep. And then I went home for vacation but still have this insomnia. I could not sleep so I indulge myself from drinking alcohol but when i got home I let myself drink no more alcohol but I thought i was progressing from my insomnia because I can sleep faster but disrupted in the middle of the night but can sleep again fast. After a few weeks. It happens again that i couldnt sleep faster it is already 4 nights now

it sounds like you’re going through a tough time with your sleep. Working the graveyard shift on a ship can really mess with your body’s natural rhythms. It’s understandable that you turned to alcohol for relief, but it seems like that might have made things worse in the long run.

It’s good that you visited the doctor and got some help, but relying solely on medication or supplements might not address the root cause of your insomnia. Have you considered other lifestyle changes or relaxation techniques to help improve your sleep? Things like establishing a bedtime routine, creating a comfortable sleep environment, and managing stress can make a big difference.

It’s also important to address any underlying issues that might be contributing to your sleep troubles. If you’re still struggling, it might be worth seeing a doctor again to explore other treatment options or rule out any medical conditions.

Hang in there, Wenchester. Insomnia can be tough, but with the right support and strategies, you can improve your sleep and start feeling better…
