I thought last night was going to be a long sleepless night. But I was able to turn my mind to a state of nothingness and stop the ruminating. It is so hard sometimes. So easy to give in to the thought swirling around and around. But I later. Pay a huge consequence if I don’t sleep. But boy was it tough to reign in the thoughts. I did oversleep a bit as it did take me time to nullify the thoughts. I feel like I achieved a great deal, I’m so proud of myself. Less reliance on meds to knock me out and more discipline and reliance on self.
