Me too! Up seven times last night due to tossing ad turning. I am an opposite reactor to most meds, so don't take any. One doc gave me Ritalin as it was thought I had ADHD. i turned into a zombie so quit taking it. Based on the experience of a stimulant making me sleepy, I bought some No Doz, but have been afraid to try it. Apparently some of this is in my DNA according to a blood test run by my doc. I remember my mother making up a very destroyed bed by my father. Unfortunately, we never talked about this. I do not feel sleepy, but am anxious and depressed. Isolation due to Covid has not helped. I eat a very clean diet and exercise. What is going on?

No Doz is a stimulant to keep you awake. It’s not used for sleep

Oh my gosh, you sound exactly like me! I have never talked to anyone else that experienced this issue. It is so awful isn’t it? And no one ever believes that someone could have the opposite effect to drugs. I have tried Olly sleep gummies and also a parch that goes on your wrist called “Dream” which sort of work? I have also tried various drugs lately from a doctor and they have been awful! I am in the process of quitting them! Good luck to you.❤️
