Sleeping is such a huge component of my mental health that I would look at trying to take care of that first. There's a type of nightmare called hypnagogic hallucination where the person is conciously awake but the brain is still dreaming. It's closely linked with panic and anxiety disorders. Do you think you culd possibly be suffering from that? Missing sleep screws up hormones and affective states and just slides down from there. No wonder you're feeling so bad. I don't know what your med regime is like or if you try to keep some kind of sleep hygeine, but for me getting sleep helps all my other symptoms. Just 7.5mg of remeron will put me to sleep, have you ever tried that? Holidays are stressful all by themselves, I hope you feel better so you can enjoy them- judy
