oh gosh i am so sorry this is happening for you. i've been through this and still do from time to time. in fact currently i cannot let myself fall off to sleep. even with the max dose of my sleeping meds i fight to keep my eyelids open. it's terrible. i agree, that for me somewhere after 4:30 or so it's ok. i went for months and months on 2-3 hours of sleep. i also have 3 children.
do you have a therapist that you are talking to? or a trusted friend? i would guess there's a good reason why you are afraid, but i think if you can get in a trusted relationship with a helping professional that they can help you with this.
i don't know if medicine will make it go away. it may or may not. it's likely to help you, though. are you afraid or are you also panicking?
write more. you are not alone.
