SuperElectric,
Thank you for your reply and helpful advice. I tried the complex carb and slept until 8am! The best gift I could have asked for on my birthday today!!

I also take a liquid magnesium and calcium remedy before bed, about a tablespoon. I started that when these strange muscle twitches and restless leg symptoms came about. I could do more physical activity during the day. I'll make that a goal this week.

Did you ever take the mirtazapine for sleep by chance? I have been on a low dose and it really seems to help with sleep. I was very hesitant as you are. I never took meds before I hit my head and the thought of taking them to regulate my mood and sleep was bringing tons of anxiety on its own. I'm trying to wean off of it now so I'll keep you updated on how it goes. I'm scared about the rebound insomnia.

Like you, I have found through this board that the sleep disturbances are usually one of the last to resolve. I am very thankful that my anxiety has resolved. It was like a chicken and egg situation, I never knew what came first...the insomnia or the anxiety.

Hope everyone has a wonderful Sunday!
