I hate this time of night. No matter how tired I am, I have a hard time sleeping and settling down.

I love the quiet but that's when there are no noises to calm the sound of my thoughts running here, there, and everywhere. My husband always asks when I'm going to bed.........how can you tell someone that doesn't really understand that you'd love to be able to, but can't??

Then I'm exhausted in the morning after I get up to get my son off to school and fall back into sleep. Half my day off is gone when I finally do get up........[sigh].

Sometimes there is just no winning from this disorder. I've tried everything to make me drowsy, but I always snap out of it when my brain just keeps going. Then I get antsy and can't sit still. Even here at the computer, I'm fidgeting and my legs are moving.........bouncing up and down.

And no meds to help............grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
