I f*cking hate the concept of sleep
Hey im a 21 yo guy suffering from severe insomnia. I sleep about 10-15 hours per 5 days due to the irrational fear of getting jumpscared irl from hallucinations or real things. I also work every day from 8-4 with often a 2 hour lunchbreak where i get my sleep back. I hate it, definitely. I get really angry if it happens. I cant do nothing about it. Meds barely help. I dont wanna take benzos. The only real thing what helps is getting hammered with strong booze. It reduces fear and makes an easy sleep with amazing dreams. In addition im stressed about my work. Im hella not focused obv. I often sleep in homeoffice while work and hope that nobody calls me. I dont wanna take a day off every 2 days. Got any tricks to make yourself unconscious without pain and the chance of hurting yourself/dying? Pls tell me. Im not here to listen to the same old stuff like: have a routine, dont eat before sleep, do sports, take a cup of hot milk with honey. No. Cause its not about not being tired. I am unbelievably tired. Its just the fear.

Hi there Placid.. Sorry to hear that you are dealing with sleep issues and concerns. I'm sure its been really challenging and difficult. I'm not here to offer advice, or suggestions that you've may have already had enough of.
However, if you feel that its become a great issue and concern, first and foremost I would surely advice and recommend reaching out to your Healthcare Provider to discuss the seriousness of what you are dealing with. So that they can advise you further.
Theres many things that can be going on, and they would be able to advise you in the best way.
I have currently moved your post to our "SLEEPING WELL" Section here in the subcom in that perhaps you will get much better support there from others who may be dealing with or going through the same or similar issues. And hopefully get more support. Good Luck to you.
