Shift in sleep wake cycle can be bothersome. Since you are on nexito that means you are already going through a stressful phase. The disturbance in sleep can be part of depression and Anxiety. Once you are in bed what happens. Are you overthinking? Are you delaying sleep because your mind refuses to rest and you continue to engage in mobile phones or something else so that you can get a distraction from all the thoughts on your mind? If this is the case then proper management can be taken and the medications can be changed a little. Especially the timing, if you feel drowsy after taking nexito then it can be taken at bedtime as in many patients nexito leads to sedation. Other than that you need to maintain sleep hygiene:
Keep a regular schedule: Go to bed and wake up at the same time every day, even on weekends.
Limit naps: If you must nap, keep it under 30 minutes and finish before 3:00 PM.
Power down screens: Turn off phones, tablets, and TVs at least one hour before bedtime.
Create a dark, cool room: Keep your bedroom quiet, dark, and comfortably cool.
Use the bed only for sleep: Avoid working, eating, or watching TV in bed.
Watch your caffeine: Avoid coffee, tea, and soda in the afternoon and evening.
Avoid heavy meals late: Don't eat large or spicy meals right before going to sleep.
Get moving during the day: Regular exercise helps you sleep, but avoid intense workouts late at night.
Wind down: Spend 30 minutes doing something relaxing, like reading or taking a warm bath, before bed.
Don't toss and turn: If you aren't asleep after 20 minutes, get out of bed, do something quiet in dim light, and only return when you feel sleepy.
If despite this you are unable to sleep. Please consult me for a second opinion. I provide online consultation and therapy support.
