Sure Chee2308. Everything you said makes so much sense. Let me try that approach. Going out of the forum for sometime .
Thank you very much for lifting up my confidence . I know sleep can’t be controlled , its body’s core biological mechanism . If we have a bad night or two, subsequent night ll be a night with better sleep . I understand all the logic behind it but somehow I am not having the courage to move away from meds.
When you say you saw things improve, did you see any cues ? Or just trusted your system and came off meds ?Hello,
I know it’s an old post but wanted to check how you are doing now ? I am going through the phase now. I am 5 months postpartum and I started sleep problems around 3.5 months. It spiraled so bad that I had to start the sleep aid . I am getting consistent sleep but have lot of sleep anxiety and hyping jerks . Trying to get some confidence reading through this postI am in the same boat right now . Experienced some sleep disruption at 6 weeks postpartum , tried several supplements and sleep hygiene and nothing worked . Finally I was prescribed mirtazapine 7.5mg which is off label sedative. Took it for a month and stopped it as gained some confidence and wanted to come off of the medication to sleep. insomnia came back and I started back on the meds. Now my sleep is not that great, waking up too early and tough to fall back to sleep even if I do it’s a fragmented sleep afterwards.
I am asked to take mirtazapine for minimum 3 months , I am doing meditation regularly and did few therapy sessions.also planning to take insomnia course . Hoping I will gain full confidence on my sleep system someday and be able to come off of med.
