"early morning hours" , Thu 10 Oct 08:12


I have been using SJW for about 3wks now with good results but today I seem to have had a relapse. Does anyone find that your anxieties are worse in the early hours of the morning like between 3-5am? Because of this I find it difficult to get a good night sleep? This is the first time in about a week and a half since taking SJW that I have experienced this and the feeling has stayed with me a good part of the late morning. I am in my late 40's and I am blaming my depression/anxiety on "the change of life". SJW has given me my life back. Even with the relapses I am still better off than I was 3 wks ago. I didnt realize there were so many others out there like me. I am out in the country and dont have much interaction with others. This web site is wonderful. elizabethe

Yes, I think the early morning wakings and disturbed sleep are in fact a midlife hormonal problem and I find the anxiety much worse in the morning. Sometimes I wonder about whether the disturbed sleep leads to anxiety and depression or whether depression and anxiety leads to disturbed sleep. In any event, the hormonal roller coaster makes you feel very very crazy. Soooo, you are definitely not alone. I found myself in the shower and swearing that if this didn't stop soon I was going to have my ovaries removed ;-).

Dear Elizabeth:
Hang in there...Don't feel discouraged. I too had what I thought was a bit of a relapse after thinking I was getting better, but those bad days will come and go...If you've improved this much in 3 weeks, that's a very good sign. From what I've read on this website, you should experience the the maximum good results from SJW in 4 to 6 weeks. If you're isolated, or living alone that in itself can be depressing, but the people here on Kelly's SJW Pages are all here as a SUPPORT GROUP, so you needn't feel alone. I'm alone here in New York City, and I've been greatly encouraged and comforted by posting letters here which so many kind people have answered. Don't give up. You have a VERY good chance of feeling a LOT better in another few weeks.
Jeanette
