Insomnia? Welcome to Team NoSleep.

[Livelife]

I slept until 6am this morning. The medication actually worked. I had to do a double take when I looked at the clock. This might be the one time for the month though but I can always hope. So I feel pretty decent this morning. Already went for a bike ride.

Nothing. Barely a wink. Went to bed feeling exhausted at about 11.30pm and I watched the clock get to 4am. Took sleeping stuff. Took more. I maybe got a little sleep between 6am and 8am, but nothing good. I'm exhausted but can't afford to stop 😢

Here we go again! Been in bed an hour not even sleepy. Still, there are 9 more hours to go maybe after 4 hours my brain will realise it needs sleep? Or 5? Or with an hour to go before get up time 🤷

Sorry to hear that @AvidFan it's so frustrating!!

Amazingly I didn't have much pain when I slept in my bed. I was very tired but it took hours to fall asleep. Then I woke up early in the morning with pain for about an hour. Just wish I could sleep solidly for once.

Another half hour. Keep chewing my lips. Oh well less expensive than grinding my teeth 😩

i'm in this computer engineering bootcamp and after i finished some of that stuff i couldn't help thinking about finding a place where other people struggled with what i'm struggling, maybe read a friendly voice. So here i am.

Sums it up perfectly!

Didn't get sleepy, made myself try @ 11pm, woke up once for a trip to the bathroom, then up for good at 4
So far, that seems to be adequate, I'll see what the rest of the day brings

peace

hello! Welcome SF & Team no sleep- groups we don’t want to be in! 🤣🙃🤣
all joking aside, I am glad you’re here. I hope that having an outlet for your dark times proves helpful. There are many here at SF with the same or similar feelings. Sometimes it just helps to know “we see you.”

Couldn't sleep well again, had shoulder pain and now I'm dealing with annoying wrist pain.

The sleep medicine is helping some the past couple of days. I hope it's not a permanent need. And glad to have slept, although a bit groggy this morning.

Another terrible night. Barely a wink, got some snatches of REM sleep as I recall dreaming, but whenever I entered this state I soon snapped out of it again. Don't trust watch on sleep, it said I had 2 hours of deep sleep and no REM sleep at all, which can't be right as I had dreams. It also records my staring at the ceiling sessions as light sleep so it needs work! Even when I did get to sleep I was woken by the slightest noise and there was a storm raging outside which was causing me anxiety. Seem to have survived with the house intact for now. Maybe over the next 4 days off I will get some sleep somehow.

I got almost 6 hours last night, with the assistance of 3mg melatonin

peace
