Hello @somers and welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect. Sleep health is so important to mental health! In addition to other medications you are exploring, I wonder if you've heard about cold plunging? It has become popular recently, as some people have experienced an improvement in their depression/mental health, and others have shared improvements in sleep. If you want to try this via a cold bath or shower, it may be worth exploring to see if you experience any improvements over time.
Is this something you've heard of or ever tried?
