The title kind of says it all, but does it ever go away and if so, when? I basically feel like I haven't really slept in almost a month. I toss and turn all night long and am increasingly getting up earlier and earlier because I don't want to lay there and try to go back to sleep. I'm obviously sleeping more than I think because I don't really feel tired or groggy during the night, but I'm so much longing for a long night of uninterrupted sleep.

Hi Lance

I think it varies for people - mine was only a week or so - if it's really impacting your life, maybe it's time to consider seeing a Dr?

It took me quite awhile prolly cause a drank alot! Many sleepless nights .My withdrawals were pretty bad! It will pass! Bare with it! I stay up late now for some reason but I'm sleeping good! Crazy dreams but I like weird dreams! 80 days tomorrow!

Ive always had insomnia and restless sleep, although drinking always made it worse. I either slept so deeply for 3 hours and nothing could wake me up or I slept for 5-10 mins every now and then.

This week I've been sleeping more though still broken but waking up feeling more refreshed. Hopefully it will settle down for you soon

I'm experiencing the opposite problem. All I want to do is sleep. It's so bad I'm going to see the doc about it. I could sleep 12hrs and still need a nap.

the problem probably isn't related to my sobriety but a part of me wonders if it is
