Hi Kim - I just tried to become more cognizant of it and forced myself to relax when I caught myself doing it. But, I think it's involuntary for some reason and maybe it's something you just have to ride out. This sounds weird, but I would blow my cheeks out & expel my breath slowly to relax my jaws! Are you taking anything for the insomnia? Maybe that will help with the clenching if it happens at night. If not, melatonin worked great for me - 3mg at bed time and I was able to fall asleep. 3 more mg around 3am and I was able to sleep til 7am!
Hang in there, I'm pretty certain no one has reported the clenching past 2 months. Have a good holiday!
