GAD and Insomnia
Anxiety Support / by Steve71

...See more I'm 71. GAD has been a problem most of my adult life. Psychologists and psychiatristst not helped. talk therapy never helped. Antidepressants never helped, but I probably didn’t give them an adequate chance because I know the side effects of SSRI and what it takes to get off of them. It was a no thank you. So I get to suffer the way the anxiety has manifested itself throughout my entire life has been insomnia. I have not had a natural night sleeps in 40 years. I take meds nightly to sleep, and I’m OK with that now because the most important thing in life is that I get some sleep. My biggest fear is not dying, it’s not sleeping. It has been brutal. But I’ve also had good luck throughout life in pursuing difficult careers. All while running on no sleep. The problemcame about as a result of school bullying, and parents that didn’t know how to take care of it. It went on for year. I had to handle it all on my own and it left me like this. So I take the meds and I’m happy I have those.

This was a really helpful conversation. The listener was very understading.
The most attentive and empathetic listener I ever found on this platform.
