The cool insomnia club

My Sleep is junk, Pure junk. But considering everything going on its what I expected.

I really need to go to Hellmart today and pick up my meds, But I just cant even deal with that place today.. I dunno maybe ill go..

Hope you all got some sleep

I honestly am not sure when I slept last... I think I got a couple hours on Saturday morning after I took the dogs out to the pasture.

Hope everyone is hanging in there

Sorry to hear about your lack of sleep Christina.

I haven't been sleeping well lately either - although, I did get a glorious amount of sleep yesterday night - but that is the exception lately. Between my own anxiety about work and my poor kitty's anxiety - I've been only sleeping in small blocks (90 minutes or so at a time)

I surprisingly slept okay last night. I slept from 10pm until 4:45am. So, it was a little under 7 hours, but I'm feeling alright, albeit a little tired. This is RARE for me these days!

I'm going to go out for a bike ride this morning in 32F weather, and I'm hoping that will help keep me sane for the rest of the day. It should also help me with sleep tonight, I think. Will report back tomorrow to see how well exercising did or didn't work.

I've moved from insomnia to I don't wanna get up. I need some caffeine.

I slept some
This morning I had lots of anxiety grrrr
(I often do, this is not new grrr)

Love to All

I'm so sorry, @~Christina, about your nonsleep. I hope that reverses itself soon. I've been doing a little bit better. I got at least 3 hours this morning, & even that little bit makes a difference. Good luck to all of you!

I'm glad sleep is finding some of you I will try not to be jealous :rofl;

Kinda sorta remember bits and peices of last nights dream. Was in a giant Victorian house. Was needing to move and packing things when one area of the floor caved in. They was a dresser right in the middle and I wanted to get the dresser. The carpet was so beautiful, blues and golds more like a bedspread than a carpet. The design was Persian and silk. At one point I sat down on the carpet under a very scrolled gilded bird cage and stared at the carpet, it was mesmerizing. I remember the old fashioned heavy phone ringing but I never got to answer it. Seems like I was supposed to be hurrying but the carpet kept divert ing my attention. Oh, I think a flood was coming.

Joining the club for the night. I had a sore throat, sniffles and body aches with a cough yesterday. I just really felt crummy. I went to bed at 5:30 and woke at 8:30 thinking it was morning and I’d slept a full 15 hours. I ran outside in my nightgown to catch the garbage man. It’s amazing how many neighbors are out at that time I’m up doing housework and other things now.

Hoping everyone here is getting some good sleep.

I really appreciate this thread because it keeps me from feeling so alone.

Slept less than two hours last night but I feel amazing so I'm not complaining

YAY Nammu ! glad you got a dream.... Your dreams are usually really colorful ???

Jennifer ! I hope your feeling better

Breaking Dawn... Im glad your here , well not glad you cant sleep but glad you find comfort here with fellow insomniacs

Spikes is it okay that your not sleeping much and feeling good? Are you headed up too fast?

I hope you get some sleep soon Christina! Is it time for a knockout round of meds? You can't take care of hubby if you're not getting some sleep.

Well yes, I think that I have got to get at least a few hours tonight or I should do a big chemical take down... But I can't risk knocking myself down hard in case he suddenly gets worse.. his breathing could go to hell in a hand basket in a hot minute

I have already told Steve that once he gets all his ducks , rabbits , cows and flamingos back in a row I am going to check out for a week long sleep coma !

The Sun is getting loud... Im edging onto that line I think.

Idk how I am going to sleep tonight. I am a light sleeper and everything wakes me up. I hate these thunderstorms! And who knows if tornadoes will hit... but there is a flash flood warning too, and supposedly hail the size of pennies.

I remember when I lived in downtown Boston... The building was pretty much sound proof! I couldn't hear a thing. Now there is no soundproofness here. Probably why I can hear the drunk wife beater below me on an occasional basis. But I do not want to report him because he will come after me. He throws things and yells at the top of his lungs.

Whatever. Sleep will come... eventually.

Blue I hope your weather isnt severe and sleep will find you

I seem to be sleeping every now & then for a couple of hours, usually in the evening &/or very early morning.

Well I did a BIG chemical take down last night , I slept hard !!! I have the med hangover of course... But I was really starting to lose it..

I'm so glad to hear you finally got some sleep. You really needed it.

Thanks Nammu I sure did need it...

Tonight I doubt ill sleep but I plan to go to bed and just close my eyes, Maybe ill get lucky and fall asleep ..

Hope you sleep well and stay warm !

I slept from 8pm until 2am, after waking up nearly every hour). Needless to say, I am annoyed with my lack of sleep.

Oh well. I guess there isn't much I can do about it, other than try to sleep tonight with some klonopin.

Life is so interesting!

What I mean is, so many things to understand from all of you. I keep picking up things from you that help me. Thank you!

No sleep, But I was able to stay in bed 4-5 hours, My pain will just not cut me a break I swear if someone said I could get rid of Bipolar or Fibro I would pick Fibro.. Miserable!
