Im suffering from stress and anxiety and going out of my mind symptoms have included crying, tension headachs whenever I cry or drink too much acohol. Sharp head pains, spotty skin, lack of energy and motvation etc etc the thing is I can handle all of these but for the past 4 weeks i've started to suffer from insomnia and when I do fall asleep my sleep is broken and plauged by exteremly weird or upsetting nightmares whitch seem so real i'm actually scared to go to sleep. I don't want to go the the doctors and have him put me on drugs as in the past i've had a drug problem which I have now overcome, but im at university with early classes and need o be able to get a good nights sleep. Is anyone experiencing this or know a way to combat it without prescription drugs? Im very gratful for any feedback.
