For anyone struggling with insomnia in Psychology ·
Hey everyone!😁 I wanted to check in and see if anyone else here struggles with sleep issues or actual sleep disorders. If you do, could you please walk me through what your symptoms look like and how you’ve been tackling the treatment side of things?
For the last three months, my sleep schedule has been an absolute train wreck. It all started when I began pulling all-nighters to study until 3 or 4 in the morning. Since I didn't have any early morning classes back then, I’d just sleep until noon... and honestly, it worked perfectly fine. I crushed all my exams and was doing great. But this semester, everything changed because I actually have morning lectures. I'm still stuck in that habit of studying through the night, and I can't even remember if I passed out at 4:00 or 5:00 AM. 😢 Then I'll sleep until 8:00, drag myself to campus where I'm basically a zombie, and then end up crashing for the entire afternoon... it's just this endless, exhausting cycle. 😢 How on earth do I break this loop? 😕
I desperately need some help! I just got my lab results back today, and honestly, I’m freaking out a little 😢 Could someone please take a look at these? I'll just list the stuff that fell outside the normal range
Hematology:
-leukocyte 10.2 (3.4-9.7)
-Eo, Mono, Baso 0.092 (0.020-0.190)
-W-SCC 4.7 (1.0-4.0)
-W-MCC 0.9 (0.1-0.8)

Urinalysis: cloudy (instead of clear), yellow (instead of pale yellow), leukocyte 25

Microscopic sediment exam:
-leukocyte 20-25 (0-2)
squamous epithelium—quite a lot
bacteria—a little
mucus—a little

Coagulation Panel:
-bleeding time 0.06 (0.18)

My OBGYN sent me in for these tests just to check in since I've been on Yasmin for a year now. I struggle with anemia, so I was taking iron supplements for a while too. What’s really eating at me is that elevated leukocyte count 😢 Could that be because I had blood drawn yesterday, and then woke up this morning with a bright red, inflamed throat? It feels like I'm coming down with a fever... I'm thinking maybe I should just redo all these tests once I'm actually healthy?
