Need supportive words

I got some broken sleep Monday night and now nothing again last night.  How long will this cycle last.  I am off 4.5 months and have had poor sleep for almost 6 months.  Can't take this any longer.  When will it change?  I was only on benzos for 11 weeks.  WTF

I just replied to your PM, but I thought i would reply here too because I posted a thread with the exact same subject, and it brought me back to a time when I was going through what sounds exactly like what you're saying.

 

At almost 2.5 years off, I can recall that struggle, but not vividly. I guess that goes to show that time healed, and I moved on with my life.

 

I remember the missed nights of sleep, the early jolting awakenings, and the constant obsession with sleep. It was a really rough time, as I know it is for you. But you're going to get through this, and you're going to get to a really good place in life where you have a greater sense of appreciation.

 

Go for walks. Meditate. Do things for yourself. And believe that you will get past this, because you will!

 

Stay strong
