Tinnitus and Sleep - how much rest are you get... - Tinnitus UK
Hi Pat i never sleep the whole night I wake up several times I take Amitrypalyn which helps and Boots Sleepease which is the same as Kalms
Use white noise and crackling vinyl to get to sleep, "T" goes mad when I wake up and its pot luck whether it settles down or not. Have 3 or 4 really bad days a week. Extreme high pitched scream in head
I listen to a audio book on low so I concentrate on that instead of the screeching noise in my head. It seems to help distract me long enough to be able to fall asleep.
I have a fan going which helps me get to sleep,unfortunately when I wake up in the middle of the night,no matter what,I struggle to get back to sleep,sick of this incessant loud buzzing ☹️
It's pretty rough trying to sleep when your brain is rattling.
I try to sleep without extra sound, and concentrate on natural, external sounds like clock ticking or/and have the window open. Nice listening to the rain. I really miss silence.
Hi Pat I have to have meds to sleep otherwise I would go crazy. I alternate -zopiclone and Amitriptyline. Sometimes I sleep well about 7 hours sleep and other times - like last night about 4 hours. Lack of sleep does affect my well being the next day and I feel quite depressed the next day as I have really loud tinnitus.
