Hey Noah ! Very sorry for you, feeling this way is very hard… 2 tips that may help you : - take Melatonine at night, about 30 mn before bed : your GP can explain this to you, but I don’t think you need a prescription for it - here in France we don’t. - have you tried ASMR ? It really helps me calm down : I put my phone right next to my ear (when I’m in bed, it’s better this way, earpods don’t feel good when falling asleep), and I let myself drift gently to the sounds of the ASMR video. There are lots and lots and lots of different kinds of ASMR so you have to figure out what you prefer. I love tapping, hair brushing or washing, quiet whispering. Hope you find a way to get better 🫶🏻

Meditation apps helped me more than anything else. I also started using an eye mask that heats up which for some reason helps me sleep faster.

Which kind of meditation do you prefer? I like Somatic for forcefully resting my entire body and mind. I also like Tapping to reassure myself/site affirmations to myself.

Thanx! But isnt like meditation superboring? 🙈😜 just joking. Dad have told me to test everything that not is dangerous or illegal. Do you have some special app you recommend? I’m only 13 so not to adult would be nice 😬👦🏼🙏 I have never used a eyemask but is it something like this? Sorry for joking about it. It’s just that it sounds so reeeeeeeally grown up to go to bed with like an eyemask and meditation 🤓🥸 but i will. Try! At least medition. I have to ask dad i he can buy a eyemask for me. 💙❤️🙏

awww Noah, I’m sorry you go through this. I don’t have any tips, as it sounds like you already do a lot to try anything that may work. If you’re on medication (sorry, can’t remember if you said you are or not, previously), talk to your GP or whoever prescribed your meds, and tell them exactly what’s going on. And on that note, I think you should show your teachers and principal exactly what’s you wrote here, to us. It’s very important that they understand you’re going through something you have no control over. Hugs!! 🫂
