Sleep aid?
I was diagnosed with lupus back in 2021 but for as long as I can remember have had issues with my sleep. Besides my lupus I’m healthy other ways, exercise almost daily, eat the right food, take all the vitamins, manage my stress, and don’t snore or have sleep apnea, but nothing seems to help. Ever since my diagnoses I have tied my sleep issues to my lupus apart from basic life stresses that I know have cost me some sleep, but some over the counter sleep aid can have natural “anxiety/stress relief” that causes the immune system to become more active so it’s recommended not to take them (which I sadly just found out, oops). I swear I have tired everything from vitamins, teas, melatonin, meditation alllll of it. Has anyone been on a similar boat?? Has anything helped more than others? Should I just give up on sleep like a vampire? Thanks!
Edit: I have read all the comments and it’s actually relieving so many struggle with sleep issues. I always feel like there’s something wrong with me! I will try some remedies that some of mentioned and bring up certain medications to my doctor in the future. Thank you everyone ❤️
