I’ve been struggling with sleep issues for over a decade now. My Doctor has prescribed me all sorts of medication, all of which has had many adverse side effects. What I do know that works, is Xanax. My wife was prescribed it for some stress issues and occasionally will give me one so I can finally sleep. Obviously asking my Doctor, “can I have Xanax” Will not go well. I’ve eluded to it in ways and the response has always been along the lines of “that’s habit forming, I’d rather you try this”. Of the many medications prescribed, none have worked. Resorting to the dark web is something I’d really rather not do. Fentanyl laced drugs took my sister and it’s a road I hope to not have to explore. Any suggestions?

    maybe make a list of 20 places you’d rather work and reach out to them. and set some boundaries with your crazy family members.

      I understand where you’re coming from but it’s not that simple. I’m freelance, it’s all gig based.

        Reality shows tend to be lower paying than average, and are harder to edit because they are loosely scripted at best. theres lots of other things you could be editing.
