Slept pretty good. Had a cool dream. It did take place in a hospital but it wasn’t bad. There was a bunch of us in occupational therapy and we made and painted game pieces for a very D&D like game. But later on during the evening only a few of us wanted to play the game. One guy was taking over and making up rules. The rest of us were getting tired of him and decided to check out of the hospital. The game pieces were so elaborate and cool.

Had a pretty intense nightmare last night. Couldn't get back to sleep after 11pm (went to bed around 8:30ish)

Altogether I've had about an hour of sleep in the last two days.

My sleep is so messed up. I sleep a little bit and then am up until 4:30. I slept until 12 or so after that but it's not restful, probably from my PRNs. I am so tired right now. I get a good night every few days but it's not enough. I have a case of depression which is causing this but I'm just tired and need it to go.

Been having a tough time sleeping. Tossing and turning most of the early night. Sleeping in the morning though when I should be getting up. Had a really coool dream the other morning, the Obama’s moved back into the White House. They were reluctant but the people were happy!

Short segments of sleep with dreams, some very strange.

Finally slept four hours straight through, but that's all I got. Feel way more rested than I have all the other nights but maybe that's hypomania ttalking.

I slept fine last night but I physically can't get out of bed because I'm too exhausted. Mountain Dew and coffee Coke did nothing to help wake me up.

well, all I can say is, some of my dreams are funny and ok, and more, like last weekend, can be downright disturbing. i certainly will not be recording those ones in my diary.

Me too,…getting broken sleep despite the ambien. Last night I was tossing and turning so much that Sir came to me. He only comes in my bed when I’m awake. Then on top of that I pulled a muscle in my leg! And as if that wasn’t enough I was sooo hot. Then of course I cooled way down and was piling on the blankets again. I know I got some sleep but I don’t remember any dreams.

I can’t sleep for crying too much. I miss her so much. I just want one more convo. One more of her jokes. One more hug.

no chance of sleep yesterday, apart from the obvious, it was raining and the wind and rain bashed the doors all night

Another crappy night. Did have an exhausting dream tho, I walked and walked, was compelled to walk. In the beginning it was fine was a crisp fall day and I’d parked in a nice section of the city. Walked past a university, saw a sign for a slide. Many many steps to go up. Decided to go anyway. Got close and the way disappeared. Decided to approach from the side. But still couldn’t reach the top. Then I was walking though less desirable neighborhoods and my trench coat was open, one shoe in my pocket. Then it was night, I had walked all day. Was telling a priest that I had no idea where I parked or where my coat was, and my keys were in the coat. No idea where my shoes went. He said I could sleep with the other hobos in the library on a cot. There was a fireplace. It was so nice not to have to walk, but I couldn’t sleep! Heh 😏

I was sleeping great until the time change. Then things got messed up and I'm back to waking up at 1:30. I'm still able to get back to sleep most nights for an hour or so. I bought this new melatonin gummy called Olly. I figured its worth a shot. The reviews are decent.

I’m constantly walking up during the night but I’m not tired during the day so it must be alright, I mean I must be getting enough sleep?

I actually slept last night. A ton of intense anxious dreams but nevertheless I slept. I woke only once and was able to sleep. So not part of the cool club last night. Yay! 😂
