cant tell if im spacey still from depression or lack of slee

[fra22]

i been feeling spacey for a few months now. the program is helping also though. i have tinnitus in my right ear that is making it impossible to sleep some nights. and i dont want to take anymore sleeping pills. i feel like my body is sleeping but my mind isnt. i wake up 3 o 4 times a night. can someone relate to this and give me some examples of how to deal with it. thank you so much

I was wondering. what if you slept with a sound machine or put a cd with a soothing music on. that'd distract you from ringing in your ears. and maybe you can get some peaceful sleep. sometimes when I have racing thoughts and can't relax i fall asleep to my fave music. Try it.
And sleeping pills would only make you feel drowsy in the morning (and possibly throughout the day). i hate them. I try to avoid them at all times.
Do you know what could be causing your tinnitus? Maybe there is a good reason and it could be eliminated.
Good luck.

I find using the relaxation cd before bed really helps me sleep more soundly....I also sleep with a fan to block out other noise. Remember, too, when your body needs to sleep it will. Best to you.
