Insomnia and Lexapro

[mel-waukee]

I’ve started taken 10mg Lexapro three nights ago and staying asleep has been so difficult...constant tossing and turning with racing thoughts. I’ve tried taking some Melatonin to get me back to sleep and it seemed to work last night but no luck tonight so here I am. /:

So sorry for what you going through,I recently went through that for over a week,try exercising and taking some herbal sleepy tea minutes before bedtime,it actually helped me!

I definitely had that plight of insomnia for a long time. One of those things that you have to find what works for you to get you relaxed. And don't force the sleep. If you are tossing and turning and can't sleep, do something that will turn your attention away from it until you feel yourself getting sleepy again. 😊
