Elmtree57✘ Not a client
That sounds like a plan. I just have to focused on not being focused.
September 29, 2021 at 4:08 am in reply to: Does Sleep Restriction Therapy work with an underlying Anxiety/Depression cond. #46643Elmtree57✘ Not a clientHi Zac. My situation is a bit like yours with respect to meds. I have anxiety and of course insomnia. They go hand in hand! Doc put me on anti depressants and a day time anxiety pill along with a sleeping pill! So! I was on meds! Hated every minute of it. I discussed this with my doc and I told him I’m going off of them. I had only given them approx 21 days (I know that’s not long), but the fact that I hated it (bad attitude) made the side effects seems worse. It hasn’t been easy for sure. Been off the AD and daytime anxiety for approximately 3 weeks. Still on the sleeping pill. Have started weaning. I have also looked into Medical Cannibis to help instead of meds, feeling it’s a more natural way and definitely no side effects. I have some in the day time and then another prescription for at night while I am weaning off the sleeping pills. Eventually will stop the cannibis also. My sleep hasn’t been very good but am hoping my journey stabilizes soon. I think a lot of the healing is having a better attitude towards your condition and of course understanding what is happening to your body which Martin explains very well. I hope your journey sees a light!

I’ve been put on sleeping pills which I have found out are addictive so want to stop them. Thing is I have to wean and apparently side effects go with it. The pills aren’t working as well either like at the beginning. I’ve contacted a medical cannabis program here, in Canada, and have just started taking cbd/thc at night, along with the pills. Once cbd/thc kicks in I’m weaning off pills. It was recommended I do it that way. Also, insomnia has now triggered anxiety!! I’m a mess!
