Morning @SmilingGecko . Did you have a bad night again? If so I’m sorry to hear that, it is nice and cool here this morning. I’ve actually got a jumper on. Rang psych trying to get them to charge my private health so I only pay the gap but they issue a receipt and I have to claim what a pain.

Thankyou @SmilingGecko. I'm not coping with the lack of sleep, I've rang my doctors surgery today in the hopes I can talk to my doctor before my next appointment which is still a week away. I'm doing my best to take care of myself but it's hard when I'm so exhausted.

Annoying for you @GezzaP it would be nice if life just flowed yeah? Oh well you will sort it out I guess. It shouldnt be such a messy process. Paying the gap on the day is far more convenient than going to your insurer. My ex-sister-in-law was a psychologist and worked in mental health. I think she may have moved to Sydney and is now working in counselling gamblers if its the same person
I realise I cant take a certain vitamin as it causes insomnia in some people. I followed the advice taking it earlier on in the day but I still had insomnia so am no longer taking it. I think that is what is causing it as I had some good nights sleep I think when I forgot to take it - we shall see. I'll stop taking my supps today and will see

I can sympathise @MissGremlin do you know why you are not getting sleep? I dont want to quiz you in your present state as it may be hard to take things in. Has it been a long period or sudden onset? Even if your doctor can give you melatonin or sleeping tablets to knock you out that would be good.
Another thing I do is go to a GP that does bulk billing acupuncture. I tried seeing a traditional chinese medical doctor but did not have the funds. It was $120 a session. The bulk billing GP gives me acupuncture at no cost but I will say its limited in terms of if you want something more.
But what he offers is enough to knock me out. I go later on in the day around 3-4pm and have a session for 20 minutes and by the time I get home I'm so dozy I just want to sleep. I've found it more powerful than sleeping tablets or melatonin
