    Thank you. We need to just let go . Whatever happens, happens. Have to keep reminding ourselves. F*** it.

    Hi. I have the same where my mind goes off on its own without me paying attention, but I’m still up. Then I notice it, and am like ‘ did I stop thinking ‘ ? Then I get frustrated, and realize I stopped thinking but didn’t fall asleep and then I start thinking again

    You would have to taper off right?
    How bad is your sleep and how did the ambien work for you?

    I feel your pain. I have sleep apnea and COPD as well. I’ve had severe sleep issues before the sleep apnea and COPD, but obviously way worse with these .

    I also, will, what it seems like cat naps throughout the night. Constantly waking up. No air flow. Cpat machine sometimes feel worse.

    All I’ve ever been prescribed for sleep is trazadone mirtazapene and gabapentin. They think I’ll sleep. Nothing at all. I’ve had 2 sleep studies and an MRI on my brain last week. My chest is always tight and that is just making me want to get drunk. But , I really don’t want to, as I’m a cold stone alcoholic.

    I’m so jealous of ppl that can just lay down and sleep.

    My mind can go on for hours until my mind gets tired of thinking, then I’m able to dose of.

    For me, sometimes I’m just happy with being in a comfortable position and just let it happen. Also, maybe try thinking about everything else that you are grateful for.

    Sue- great point on not trying. Sucks when you need to do things the next day tho.
