Not sure if I will make it because I am not sleeping right now. I will not go back on remeron, only to restart this process at a later date. I have some lorazepam I can take if things get real bad, but that too is not a long term option. Medication helped me once, but after years of searching I have finally realized that for me it will never work again. Time to move on and try to heal in some other way. I read a CBT book on sleep and anxiety recently...didn't really help. Not sure if seeing a CBT expert would help (as Scott suggested), but may try that next.
I'm about to go to bed now...I've got a long night ahead of me. When I can't sleep the anxiety builds and I just don't know how to stop it. Sometimes I get up and read, but once the anxiety is out I'm done for and won't sleep. I'm just looking at my dog sleeping right now. Man, I would trade my brains for his zzzs anytime.
