@nightops you should see a sleep specialist to check for underlying issues. Improving your sleep process is healthier than meds which should be a last resort. You should get this under control now before you develop bad habits.

@jenatsky I'm happy to report that, while I occasionally still have very mild vibrations, they are far from what they were. My sleep has gotten better - but I still think there's room for improvement. Unfortunately at this point I cannot financially afford any additional costs at this point - mid-June I had a relapse with 6 new lesions (the prior 4 luckily were no longer active), so I was put on a 3-day run of SoluMedrol, and then switched from Copaxone to Tecfidera (after some considerable prompting by myself to go to a stronger med other than one that has similar efficacy to Copaxone).

As for mentality, it's mostly gotten significantly better. I still have dark moments, and when sleep hasn't been as good are days when I know I'm going to struggle... but expecting the battle and mentally preparing for it are vastly better for me than not knowing what to expect. There are still plenty of unknowns, but I feel like I'm starting to make some good traction.
