I know it's terrible. It doesn't happen often anymore, but I still make that choice sometimes to stay awake. I guess I'm just a little delirious right now. I don't want to take my sleep meds until tonight since I didn't take last nights dose. Otherwise my sleep schedule may be off. Although that's doubtful since I get rebound insomnia and my meds put me right to sleep.

Being a night owl wouldn't be so bad if I actually felt tired eventually. Then I could just take nap. However, with the rebound insomnia I'm physically awake, but I can tell that my brain and body need rest. I'm eager to get off of this Trazadone eventually and see what my natural sleep cycles are again.

I'm just rambling. I know I should have been more responsible
I am up most of the time not by choice though sometimes I can not fall asleep or if I do I am awake by 1am then I cannot get back to sleep,I try to fall asleep watching tv but it doesn't work for me so I knit or crochet try to make myself get tired no such luck however one time I fell asleep in my rocker for three hours boy was I ever surprised when I woke up,it can be so annoying not getting the right amount of sleep because there are days when I feel like I am drunk banging into things because I am so exhausted,when I cannot sleep when I am sick it just makes matters worse.
