I had this happen around 35. Job, family related stress, and age are my best guess. Ambien was great for getting to sleep, but would wear off and I’d still wake up, same with the extended release. My doctor decided to try 10mg of Valium. This gets me through the night for years now. I still wake up, but it keeps the panic of existence from setting in and I’m able to turn over and get back to sleep.
