Horrible.
I suffer from severe insomnia as a result from depression and anxiety disorders and I can't really sleep. My psychiatrist didn't want to prescribe me an actual sleeping medication (probably because he's afraid I'll try to CTB with it), and has just prescribed me Doxepin alongside my other anti-depressant, cause it's supposed to also help with sleep.
It works a bit, but not really that well.
A weighted blanket has helped me somewhat, but again, not that much.
I often go for walks at night, cause at some point my anxiety just gets worse and worse if I just lay in bed and stare at the ceiling, especially if my bf is over, cause I can't even watch something.
I do like sleeping next to them though. Them holding me, while I put my head on their chest is really calming.
