I wish I was asleep. I am not tired and fear that no sleep will come for me tonight. I just lay in bed and don't sleep. I tried my relaxation techniques but my brain basically laughed at me when I tried it. So I guess no sleep for me tonight. Are there any other insomniacs up too?

I hope you finally got a little sleep. Usually I could joint you but last night was one of rest for me. Hopefully tonight you can turn your brain off and get some good sleep.

I've been there many nights. Does your pdoc not give you something to help you sleep? Perhaps you could ask and if you don't have a pdoc, ask your GP.

Hugs,

Jan

It has been better of late, but I also battle to get to sleep, and stay asleep.

I do hope you were able to get some much needed sleep and rest.

I hate those times and actually grow to fear them which, of course makes it worse. So I go online etc. I wonder what would happen if I got up and did a bunch of chores? Hmm, maybe should try.

Well at 4:30 this morning I finally fell asleep. I do take something for sleep but lately it hasn't worked to well. I think its time to change the dosage again. I see my pdoc in 2 more weeks and then will talk to her about it. I don't have enough pills to change it myself now. I have the option of taking 1 or 2 Trazadone's for sleep. Last night I took 2 but still was up. I think part of it was I was beating myself up for eating so much yesterday and everytime I'd slow down enough to try to sleep the thoughts would come back and wake me back up again. I finally did the warm milk thing and it put me right out.

That's great, the warm milk, it would have me on the potty all night. I think I am going to form a club around here of insomniacs and we can take turns going to eachother's houses and remodeling at night. Just think of all of the positive that would come out of this. What do you think?
