It's 5 in the morning...

I can't sleep and I'm so hungry I feel I could eat a pig. I feel like such a failure for not being asleep and wanting to eat at this ridiculous hour.

Hi Sapphire I have the same problem when I first starting taking citropram 5 weeks ago if I was awake I was very hungry I used to get up and do a sandwich but that has wore of. Take care xx

Hi

You are not a failure , so many of us have problems with our sleeping patterns but in time they do get better

Not sure but are you raking any medication as sometimes that can interfere with sleep

Also you could have a word with your doctor if this is not improving even if you have spoken to them already

Do you make sure you have eaten not just before you go to bed but some where before going as I know if I have gone without food that can make me wake up & I cant get back to sleep before I have eaten something but then I can look back & think well I went to bed feeling hungry so there is no wonder !

Hope you did get some sleep eventually :-)

Love

Hope you finally managed to get some sleep. Make sure you eat regularly. And if it happens again, where you're up and hungry. Have something to eat.

Your body requires energy to digest food so it might help you feel more sleepy.
