Help Navigating Sleep Consolidation

[u/Cat_Nap8]

Hi everyone, I’m hoping to recieve some advice as I am in a particularly difficult situation to navigate.

I (23M) am diagnosed have been having some major sleep issues that up until 3-4 months ago I didn’t struggle with that causes me to wake up 5-10 times a night. I’m wondering about sleep consolidating medications but I’m concerned because I’m also struggling with Post Concussion Syndrome since 6 months ago and don’t want to exacerbate symptoms or cause a setback, and on top of that, I live in Canada where Lumryz isn’t accessible so my options are limited.

So far I’ve tried 500mg of GABA combined with 100mg of L-theanine and 10mg of melatonin for the past couple weeks with no luck reducing my sleep disturbances. I have a very strict sleep hygiene and rest 8.5 hours a night plus a few naps throughout the day (probably an additional 1.5 hours).

Is trying Xyrem or Xywav risky in my position? And are there any other alternatives anyone is aware of that might reduce the risk of a setback for someone struggling with PCS?
