My t says I’m “a little up.” Can’t sleep well lately.
Here’s my most recent adventureee: I was chopping veggies for dinner. Knife slipped and I had a nice gash in my thumb! I’ll spare you the details. But I got three stitches and a tetanus shot.

Right there with you on no sleep and being "a little up" - sorry about your freaking gash! That sounds painful and awful.

I am right there with you. Spent three hours trying to fall asleep. Then, woke up two and a-half hours later, ready to go!! I see that you are not on any sleep meds, @HALLIEBETH87. Did you used to be? How has it gone just doing it on your own? I have stopped all my sleep-related meds--seroquel, ambien xr, trazodone, etc. i did it for good reason, but I find it quite difficult going now, being 'naked.' Totally unpredictable for me. Would love to know how you are coping with this.

Ouch! I'm sorry you cut yourself, HALLIEBETH. I cut myself often, but not to the point of stiches. I hope you sleep better tonight.

I take melatonin actually. I was up from 2:30-7:30am.
Managed to fall asleep around 8.

Ugh, hand cuts hurt so much.
I'm wondering if I'll ever again sleep for more than 2 hours. It's been like this for months; nothing touches it. Gets weird.

So sorry, not sleeping sucks. I'm usually tossing and turning until around 4am, then I finally sleep. Last night I dreamed of sleeping!

That's so cool- dreaming of dreaming! Years ago, I dreamed that my sister and I were being chased and I stopped in the music room and whispered "You get help. I'm going to sleep to get out of this dream."
