Can't sleep... Might be struggling

[Twialine]

I can’t sleep tonight and I haven’t been able to have any CBD for my anxiety and I feel kinda like I’m going to have a panic attack I’m trying to breath I’m having a hard time and I really don’t know what to do since pretty much the only thing I can take for my anxiety is bared from me and my nurse practitioner doesn’t take calls on Sundays I’m trying to hang in there.

Hang in there @Twialine. Sorry you are going through this. Maybe try some deep breathing and think of good things in your life.

Lie down, take deep breaths, slowly. The feeling will go away, just try to relax.

@eighteyedspy23 @Speedy I tried deep breathing but in the end I ended up going to my old go to of eating… Unhealthy food… I ate a Snickers brownie bar and peanut m&ms… Without teeth… Not very pleasant feeling but eating sweets seemed more important

I had the same issue. I get panic- attacks when I go grocery shopping.

I used to load the cart with unhealthy foods, candy, treats and potato- chips. Which I binged when I got home.

Now I try to eat healthy and I only eat treats once a week. Even if I have a panic attack.

I’m going to see my doc at the end of this month to discuss my meds. I want to try something new for panic- attacks. My current med regimen doesn’t work.

@Speedy I usually use CBD for my anxiety but I can’t until I see my surgeon Wednesday and I can’t take anything else really

[Speedy]

I’m allergic to CBD. I’ve heard it to be good for anxiety though.

Seriously, if it gets bad talk to your doc. You could try a med for your panic- attacks?

[Twialine]

@Speedy maybe but the most common anxiety med I’m allergic to and it makes it rough. I’m sorry you’re allergic to to CBD I find CBD to be amazing for me and it’s one of the few things I’m not allergic to since I have a low metabolism making it hard to find anything I’m NOT allergic to, even my new bipolar med causes migraines and maybe the reason I couldn’t sleep

[Speedy]

Yeah, I was hoping CBD to be a miracle drug when it came out. Instead of positive effects I became nauseas, started vomiting and felt really bad. I know people had their anxiety’s cured from CBD.
