Everyone agrees that prescription drugs is not a first choice decision for insomnia. However, I found that sleeping only three hours for 3-4 consecutive nights led to depression. My social worker shared that lack of sleep is a primary factor in depression. Not only was it a few hours, it was not the deep, restorative sleep that I need. Sleep determines my quality of life in terms of energy-fatigue as well as daily out-look on life. I have the sleep med next to my bed. I do all the other cognitive behavioral approaches to sleep- if I am having a bad night, I take the drug. Not needed every night but as needed.
Thanks for your note. I do the same as you. I need some sleep at night to function the next day. Predicting what will happen at bedtime is impossible. Every evening and every day are a new day! Wish you the best on your recovery journey.
If your in a state that has legalized marijuana, try some indica strain edibles. I don’t recommend smoking it. It’s to hard on the lungs. Ask your doctor if medical marijuana is right for you. Stay away from Sativa strains and stick to indica. Works great for my brother. Also any medical marijuana dispensary will be very helpful in steering you in the right direction. Go natural!
@deeburke I received the Moderna vaccine and exactly one year later, I suddenly developed severe insomnia. Literally could not sleep. I’ve tried everything, including the Mayo CBT-I. After the CBT, they would not help me further. I’m on meds and medical marijuana, however, fatigue is horrible. It’s difficult to find anyone to diagnose or treat. I believe this is the result of the vaccine and found a test that can be ordered to test your spike protein. I plan to order the test and do further research to help myself since no professional seems to have knowledge on the subject.

I had a similar problem. 4 shot of vaccine and 2 months later could sleep. Also my balance and coordination have been affected. Wrecked my career and still not resolved.

Seems a lot of folks want to blame Covid on every ailment they have. I suggest you look for another reason for your ailments and thank God you didn’t die !
