Someone answered a Chubbyemu comment. This is how he get to the emergency room.

The hallucinations are talking to me, telling me to lay off the caffeine.

Im going on 25 yrs. Record is 15 days on 10hrs of sleep.

@@currentriver4951 I have severe anxiety, schizoaffective disorder bipolar type, chronic depression, and sleeping is often very difficult for me. I might sleep one hour and wake back up, and typically sleep no longer than two hours at a time, wake up for awhile, drink a strong cup of coffee which makes me sleepy, then fall asleep again. I was found disabled because of it because it`s impossible for me to function as a normal person and be able to work. I struggle most days just trying to feel better and control the emotional pain and the feeling like all my nerves including my brain are on fire and I suffer horribly from it all most times. The only time I feel good or normal if when I drink or do drugs and I can`t do that because the temporary relief I get just stores up all the bad things I momentarily escaped and all of it gets released at once after I sober up. This is usually so exhausting that I can finally sleep though but stay in bed for days. The drugs they give me in an attempt to control the symptoms make me feel terrible. I can knock myself out with them and wake up later feeling extremely tired and sleepy but can`t sleep, so it`s trading one horrible feeling for another one. I could drink every day and feel a lot better but it would kill me. So does it make sense to not drink, live longer, and feel like crap, or should I drink, improve my quality of life, and suddenly find myself very ill one day from alcohol abuse with only hours or days left to live?

Honestly the closest experience i've had to the pit of hell is probably lying in bed not being able to sleep for 12 hours straight

It is hell like no other. But oddly enough it has it's unique positive moments. There are the occasional moments when you feel like you are sitting on clouds, your mind is empty, your body feels comfortable, all is well. Then you fall face first on the floor because you were actually falling asleep at work while sitting on the edge of a table.

It's been a few months now I've been sleeping max 4 hours a day and I'm hating it

Lawyers need lawyers Doctors for the most part are very ego driven

@@OliveMule cant the same be said for lawyers?

Kind of unrelated but this thread reminded me of that surgeon who removed his own appendix, Leonid Rogozov. It's an interesting story.

@@allanpeter7700 even more so for lawyers. But lawyers have learned the lesson the hard way, representing yourself doesn't go well.

I have hemiplegic migraines. My neurologist (who is actually an epileptoligist) told me "you should try CBT" I knew she didn't know to help, so this was all she could give me. Said my body had anxiety manifesting and I didn't even know it. I'm chronically ill and have been for years so I can smell bullshit. Since I have struggled with anxiety and depression in the past (which I have managed, I'm less anxious than the average person) I'm sick of hearing it. I did go to a therapist though, and she explained CBT to me, but only with hypotheticals relating to situations I had told her. How she described it, it would not help me because I have rational and realistic thought. All of this medical gaslighting and people not taking you seriously is truly frustrating. And the worst part is, we know there's very little that we can do about it except advocate for ourself. Stay strong 💪

Good psychologist refer people to (neuro) psychiatrist or neurologists as well. Really depends on where you get your care...

@@OxyPox I have hemiplegic migraines too. They're terrible. You're right. CBT will not help with that at all!

Which is weird because, as a mental health professional, my first instinct if someone is showing neurological symptoms is to ask them to talk to their GP about a neurology consult.

@@DahVoozel you can assess by yourself and than discuss in multi-disciplinairy team, if you assume it. So basically still referening yes. It is not either, but both.

Definitely. We are trained to observe things in other people, and it's not nearly the same as observing them in ourselves. And that's only physical stuff, psychologists can just fall into a pit of dangerous misdiagnosis if they try to work on themselves with the training to work on others

I had really bad insomnia for years as well and it stopped the moment I quit consuming wheat.

Dude, how did you fix anxiety? Just by two days mirtazapine? I have also doctor described mirtazapin for sleep. I have chronic insomnia for all my adult life. I just cant shut off my thoughts at night. And when I wake up in the middle of the night, my mind is offering me a hundred scenarios, topics in a second.

@organ iced I wish I could just tell you a way to shut it off. And no, it wasn't just two days. I still worried constantly about everything for months. Being able to sleep just made it a lot easier to deal with. At around the same time, I found I had a passion for theology and linguistics. So instead of feeling aimless and empty I felt like I had something worth living for. So I just kept on struggling. I'd make the phone calls I'd been putting off, clean my apartment, go out in public, and get out of my comfort zone. As I did more stuff like that, I was able to gradually build confidence. At the end of the day, I could tell myself, "You did that, and it's over. You don't need to worry about it anymore. " Over the next year or two, those things became pretty easy. That was in 2016. It's been 7 years and I'm still picking up the pieces. Building a career path, trying to get back in shape, and dealing with various health problems. But life is good, and it feels good to make progress on those things. And I've gone from having a panic attack every time my phone rang to 3 years and counting without one.

@@justafrog5641 thank you for the reply. I forgot to say that mirtazapine(15mg which I halve) is the only thing that help me to sleep. But I dont take it regularly, just when I'm in vicious cycle and nothing else help. But I'm scared it mess up my head(even more) so I have trie to find alternative, more natural medicine. So far, I have tried everything what you can imagine to get proper sleep. I do exercise and eat pretty clean. But there is no cure.

I remember in last five years or more I have one night that I remember I went to sleep and woke up in the morning. Every other night I wake up atleast few times. Some times I'm awake fifteen minutes sometimes three hours. Then back to sleep again and awake. People who have not suffered from insomnia can not understand what you are dealing with. I would give all my money all my savings (some 80000 euros) instantly if some one cure my insomnia forever so that I would sleep when I go to sleep and wake up in the morning. I know I would be completely different person.

Thanks for doing what you do! My wife is a lawyer in NC, but she's having a terrible time finding work at a practice, and is stuck in a dead end job doing document review...... For TWO YEARS

Yeah, washing dishes is the lowliest restaurant job, and you probably work the hardest. Then at night you have to finish the dishes, AND clean the sinks AND sweep and mop the floors. Some fellow employee sits at the bar drinking until you finish and you both can go home. And I never worked in a restaurant where the wait staff shared ANY of the tip money with dishwashers. Zero.

@@Tenskwatawa4U I've literally never worked anywhere like that and I've been cooking for like 10+ years now. You'll be shamed for leaving early while there's still closing to do, the line cooks are the ones helping finish up dishes and cleaning the kitchen. Dishwashers get tipouts. Must be the shitty American restaurant culture. Also the idea of "you probably work the hardest" is complete bullshit. Just- absolute shit. It's honestly insulting to how hard cooks and chefs have to work, and we're usually not even paid as well as you think we are. Is dishwashing a shitty, hard job? Sure. But it's absolutely nowhere NEAR being "the hardest job in the kitchen" by any stretch of the imagination, and it just shows that you've never been food staff if you think that it is. Unskilled labour that a teenager can do competently will NEVER be as "hard of work" as a trained linecook working 12-15 hours a day.

@@robbiirvine1038 I certainly did enjoy your opinion. I've done 14-hour shifts as a dishwasher. And I'm a college grad, my friend. No sir - never one cent tip. Ever. And yes, I always did most of the cleanup and did it alone, while another member of kitchen staff sat at the bar, drinking, and waited until I finished so he could lock up. All were relatively "upscale" restaurants, not greasy spoon joints. I worked one place where I was cook AND dishwasher. Never one speck of help in the kitchen. Ever. No tips there, either. One day, after my prep work was done (we still hadn't opened) I took out a sandwich I HAD BOUGHT ELSEWHERE and took a five-minute meal break. There were no official breaks at all in this place. So I took a minute to have a bit to eat - the entire 9-hour shift had no breaks or relief whatsoever. The owner came in and told me to eat on my own time from then on. I nodded and said, "okay." As soon as he left the kitchen I slipped out the back door and went home. Never even collected the pay I was due. I guess he came in a bit later to find out why orders were backing up as dinner rush got rolling. I ran into him year later in public and he wouldn't even look at me. Cool!

It might sound weird, but have you ever been diagnosed or suspected to have ADHD?

@@mikeylagarcia1176 I actually do have a confirmed ADHD and autism diagnosis.

@@CylitheraGreywolf it's the adhd! Caffeine stimulates the part of the brain that's understimulated in Adhd, just like Adderall and Ritalin! Being able to focus better on caffeine is a common indicator of Adhd, and it's helped a lot of people get diagnosed as adults

It's a good thing to pee. If it's an excessive amount then see your doctor even if Dr. Bernard has covered this in his videos.

@@LadyAnuB It's not excessive excessive, but I do notice I pee more. Otherwise though stimulants do calm me down quite a bit.

I've been searching for a cure for my mom online she had insomnia issues, I was referred to dr moses on KZfaq who finally cure her using his natural remedies which he sent to me where I am in California now my mom is doing just fine thanks to dr moses

An injection would have been more efficient.

@@fmartin59 Probably true, but it wasn't necessary so I went the route that my Irish ancestors went. Eat large amounts of animal organs and shell fish. It fixed the problem real quick. Clams are essentially a vitamin b12 supplement. They contain 3500% the daily recommended value of vitamin B12.

@@jackneals5585 animal organs are underrated super foods

@@r3born206 100%

You might want to cut down on the liver, mate, or you may well be on your way to develop vitamin A toxicity. A mere 100 grams of beef liver provides well over 5000 mcg of vitamin A, and the daily allowed maximum is 3000 mcg (even that is too much on a daily basis), so eating it more than once a week is really not sensible at all. Please stop.

What medicine you on, if you don't mind me asking? I've had terrible insomnia for years 😟

@@basskitten808. I think melatonin might help, but I just picked this up somewhere.

Also interested in what meds you are on ?

Indeed. I grew up with this, and in my teens it was bad enough that it was a major reason for switching to night school, just because it was so hopeless getting any sleep at correct hours (also started to hate birds). Now I've found a medicine that really helps (agomelatine), and it is ridiculous how different life is when you don't have to be anxious about not being able to sleep. (Many different things tried between finding this med and starting my search: old style antidepressant: good, but the side-effects make them impractical, melatonin: almost as good, but my ability to stay asleep goes to

Melatonin is for people without a real insomnia issue. Benzos, or benzo like drugs like ambien, are the only true panacea.

how would that help?

@@teaja211 It wouldn't help, that's my point. Did you watch the video?

He probably took the description of circulating thoughts and anxiety over previous sleepness nights as an indicator that the insomnia wasn't organic and could be treated with cbt.

@@olenickel6013 I agree that's probably what happened, but the point is that he was wrong. The doctor coming to the incorrect conclusion that this was a psychological problem without checking for a physical cause meant that a serious medical problem went untreated.

@@SomeoneBeginingWithI and misdiagnosis this massive could've lead to death. CBT... Lol..

Cats_shall_rise Except I had both too, and replenishing my B12 status did nothing for my insomnia. The only thing that has shown some promise is to have enough sugar/insulin in my diet. I know these have become the outcasts of the nutrition world, but not having enough in my diet seems to be what's causing/contributing to insomnia. I'm assuming it's because it allows more tryptophan/serotonin/melatonin to enter cells, but it could also be, ironically, because it provides more energy (quick energy, that is, in the form of sugar [fat's more of a slow burn]) to the body, which I've heard from some in the health space is also connected to sleep problems (an energy deficit, that is). I suppose the best answer is that it's a combination of both. In fact, the more of a big, fat, sugar-bomb dessert I have the more it seems to improve my sleep. Probably not the greatest for my health, but if I can sleep better, it's worth it. Just thought my experience might be helpful if the B12 angle doesn't work out.

@@anemicgoalhop495 It's not the sugar, it's the fat, mate.

@@chickenlover657 No, I was eating tons of fat on low carb/keto. It's the carbs that have helped.

@@anemicgoalhop495 Carbs react differently when combined with fat or protein. Or if you prefer, fats react differently when combined with protein or carbs. Chemistry is more complicated than you assume. The other day someone claimed you can atone for drinking skimmed milk by adding butter to it. Of course the answer is NO. So don't diss it until you've got a degree in it.

@@anemicgoalhop495 It seems to be helping, but thanks. I was also told my on and off swelling of my lip could be b12 related, but this keeps occurring.

I guess mine is different because I get plenty of b vitamins. I hadn’t watched to the end before. I have taken Adderall to help fall asleep because it calms me down so fast. And I guess I still wonder why.

I'm amazed he didn't do a full nutritional blood workup as soon as he had an issue.

@@shellderp It's not like it's free of charge. Or done in 5 minutes. Edit: Not even what I said. I guess, try not sleeping for several days at a time and see how your brain works. He eventually figured it out and did get blood tests, after the fact obviously. But during that time, he chalked it down to stress. Of which stress makes sense. We know now that it wasn't stress. His mind, for himself anyway, won't have exactly been firing on all cylinders. Just go 3 days without sleep and try to solve some simple questions given to you by someone else at random. It's not always as simple as you made it out to be.

Why is that? What's the corelation between having ADHD and a case like this?

@@Cribius Some people with ADHD actually find that stimulants like caffeine calm them down and help them focus, or even fall asleep.

@@Cribius ADHD is a pretty broad disorder, and there are so many different causes of it. In some cases, people with ADHD find that caffeine acts like a sleep medication as counterintuitive as it seems. As someone with ADHD, I also find caffeine having the same effect. It's kind of like using stimulants in the case of ADHD to increase attentiveness and calmness despite there being hyperactivity and inattentiveness. The idea behind that is that most people with ADHD have decreased dopamine levels and so by increasing them with the use of stimulants will reverse the negative affects.

@@Cribius The idea is more connected to the caffeine content rather than the vitamin B12 content. The exact reasons why it occurs aren't known as with many other things pertaining to not only ADHD but the brain in general.

Same, I thought for sure he was going to say it lead to an ADHD diagnosis and I was a little excited

No, it's probably circumstantial. I am a type 1 diabetic. Developing type 1 diabetes is a long process - not overnight. Your beta cells slowly die off and when you get to the point of not producing an adequate amount of insulin, fatigue will set in. This is possibly why he started drinking more energy drinks. Type 1 is an autoimmune disease. So it's like genetics+ environmental/viral trigger.

@@WooliteMammoth Appreciate the feedback 😎

Id do an in-depth history. Did he have a virus something to cause autoimmune response

@@annaohare8263 I'm not a physician, Anna. Medical massage therapist. I do have a more in-depth history. His insulin pump failed & he lost a significant amount of weight. He came to me because of back pain. His back & core muscles were beyond hypertonic, they were like beef jerky. After a full session, I didn't see much improvement so I sent him home with an LED infrared/far infrared light. That spoke to his mitochondria and transformed his muscle tone...

Literally the process of going to countless doctors and specialists with chronic pain is enough to give you psych issues 🙃

Exactly these doctors seem to think that the psych issues are a cause of the pain, without understanding it is merely a symptom of the pain... And because of this, at least for me, they dont even attempt to bother with any other treatment other than psych therapy.

Apparently those oral supplements don’t absorb that well. My doctor gave me injections for several months when mine was low. Did you have this low B12 last year by chance? That’s when I had it. The only thing I could think is that the pandemic disrupted my habits. And since I already have a bad stomach (gastroparesis) it has more effect on me if I don’t eat as well. Maybe something similar happened to you? Or maybe you have something going on with the stomach? Ever get stomach cramps? Anything happen kind of on the subtle end you just shrug off? You’re a biologist so I’m sure you’ve already thought of this, but it sucks you can’t figure it out.

What was your dose? Was it a minimum of 250 mcg daily? (that's the minimum dose for adequate passive absorption via diffusion)

@@democracydignityhumanrights reminds me of a woman who had severe vit b12 deficiency bcz the tapeworm in her intestines would suck up all the vit b12. She too had abdominal pain. Recently saw vid in this channel.

Any update?

I suspect it is probably due to starvation after he said he eat less and less but not hungry and slept well after eating chicken & drinking the sugary drinks because I've experienced starvation before. So having experience things is vital for making guesses that point toward the right direction (even tho it turn out to be B12 deficiency, not calorie deficient).

How did you do? Hope you got some well deserved rest.

No, unfortunately it got worse, I should do some bloodwork to see exactly what kind of deficiency I have
