Besides all the other problems my husband has had. He has sleep apnea the doctor had him on pain meds for his arm and shoulder like vicadine, morphine, ultrim. The dr. stopped giving him morphine after a year because it interfered with his sleep apnea if that was the case why did he give it to him in the first place and should they have weined him off of it.
I felt there has been something wrong I know morphine is a powerful drug. You take a person who has sleep apnea, sugar, stent in heart, constant in pain, high blood presure, The dr. told my husband hes a walking time bomb and it scares me. Everytime I try talking to the dr they blow me off I just dont know how to get there attention. Thanks for all the info.

Can depression be attributed to insomnia?

Ever since I hit my teens, I haven’t been able to sleep all through the night. I’ve taken OTC sleeping pills, sometimes they work, other times they don’t. It’s as if my brain just will not go into “sleep mode” and just keeps racing through things.
I’ve had symptoms of depression for just about as long, and I went to see my doctor recently as these symptoms have worsened over the last 6 months.
I wrote him a list of symptoms, which included insomnia as one of the big ones, and he just seemed to shrug it off and perscribed Welbutrin XL for me.
Could me not sleeping well at night affect my overall well-being, even emotionally? Can someone offer some help or send me some information on this subject if the two tie together, please?

Waking Up From Sleep Paralysis?
05
Jun
I’m currently enrolled in a psychology course in my university, and the topic was on sleep.
After reading through certain types of sleep disorders I was bit curious about the sleep paralysis.
Throughout my life I’ve experienced some sort of unusual events during my sleep.
The most common abnormal sleep event is when I’m awake during sleep.
I can open my eyes a little bit just to see my surroundings, but my body can’t move.
I’ve did some research before posting this question, but nothing mentions about this occurrence during the sleep paralysis. This might sound silly, but whenever this happens I quickly try to get out of this state by jerking my neck side to side or just completely turn my neck to one side. And my goodness, sometimes I just don’t have enough stamina to keep doing this 
and it scares me sometimes.
I always wanted to record myself sleeping, but it’s rare nowadays for me at least.
I’ve never had hallucination but I did hear a loud noise once during this, which I quickly did my “escape method” by jerking my neck. Which I woke up everyone asking if they heard a noise.
For those who uses this “Escape Method” are we actually movie our neck, or is it just a feeling of the neck movement. I’m so curious about this.
