Feeling So Overwhelmed...

[Shady_99']

My husband has been sick for like the past week with extremely bad stomach cramps and has been waking me up around 7-8 in the morning. I don't sleep well because my pain has been all over the place and I can't stop the night terrors. I think I have been only getting like 4 hrs of sleep a night since he's been sick. It's wearing on my nerves and I feel like I'ma break. :(:banghead::unsure::inpain:

Any idea at all what is up with his tummy? Is this normal for him or does it seem to growing worse? Is he feverish or anything? Has he seen a doctor?

Do you have any therapist you can talk to about the night terrors? I'm sorry about your pain too, that is a lot to cope with. :(

Ditto @WildMermaid about a therapist. But also, do you have a doctor aware of the pain? A few flexeril help me sleep well and lessens pain but I know some people hate that med.

Can you talk to your husband about letting you sleep a little extra so you don't fall apart?

Hang in there. I fall apart on sleep deprivation quite quickly, so am pretty picky about sleep. I need meds but hope that someday I don't.

Could you or he sleep in another room, the couch? Lack of sleep really wears you down, and if you already suffer from several pains, you need sleep. I am glad you have such nice dogs with you on the avatar with you :-) Take care so much.

@WildMermaid & @Chava yes I have a therapist but I don't go see her until next month. @Born to Run no there isn't another room I can sleep in. we live with family so we just have our bedroom
