It's nice to know that people actually read my posts.
I slept last night! It was probably at least 6 hours, which is all I need to feel fantastic. I'm not even worrying about tonight.
A neighbor I talked to yesterday said he just doesn't go to bed until he's very sleepy. I've done a lot of research on sleep and some experts say go to bed at the same time every night and some say don't do it until you're sleepy, so I guess we have to try both if one doesn't work. The same time every night thing doesn't work for me but it's so tempting... but if I can't get anywhere with all the latest attempts I'll try the other. @ Pinny thank you for the suggestions. I think you were the person who suggested yoga before and I've tried it; it's some help sometimes but this insomnia is a bear.

I am using my weighted blanket right now. Its a 10 pound throw one but I use it as an actual blanket. I've been getting too hot though at night to use it much. Possibly why my sleep has gotten bad. I hope yours works out. I do also have a weighted face mask which is one pound. I always ended up taking it off in the middle of the night.
