I feel very stressed to the point I cant sleep. and if I do fall asleep I wake up every half hour, due to small noise, or nightmares. I do not feel depressed, I feel scared, anxious, tired, and nauses. I travel every 2 weeks with the job I have and cannot be going back and forth to a doctors clinic! please help

Hello
I understand your concerns.
Stress is the major reason of disturbed sleep.
You are also having nightmares.
For this problem, drugs like clonazepam (prescription drug) work well.
This help you to relieve stress and anxiety and help in sleep.
Also,
Avoid daytime naps.
Practice relaxation exercises like deep breathing and meditation.
Hope this helps.
Thanks.
