another sunday night

It's sunday night. I can never sleep on sunday night for some reason. I thinks it's because I know I have to work in the morning. The weekends go by so fast. I wish weekdays went by just as fast.

I'll be awake until 2 or 3 am. I'll lay in bed and stare at the ceiling listening to my husband snoring away. I have racing thoughts. Constantly thinking and worrying about something.

I just wanted to share this with everyone.

Have a good work week everyone. See you Tuesday night in chat.

Have you thought of taking a mild sleep aid to get you relaxed enough to go to sleep?

I hate nights like that!! Had one last night. Last time I checked the clock it was 4:47 am.

Husband's snoring, mine sounds like he is dieing, refused to let the doc help him, so we haven't slept together for 6 years, his weight gain makes it worse
I get bouts with sleep too, but most likely due to stress and being Bipolar, besides a mood stabilizer the pdoc has now added ativan and klonopin when needed, it helps when I feel ahead it is going to be one of those damn nights, I mean my husband's snoring can reach our first floor sometimes. . . I refuse to wear earplugs, I want to hear if something is happening in the house or something of an emergency, my dog even prefers to jump off the bed and sleep with me on our couch, her and I have been doing that for about 5 years now, ha!ha!
Ah, no sense of complaining to you, you know what this hell can be, eh?
Do you see a T for your racing thoughts? Have they been ruled out of being the racing thoughts Bipolars get? When that happens it is a real *****, I even use to sit and question to myself "I wonder how long it takes a word to travel to the ear, and then my mind would go on about anything, never would stop, until mood stabilizers were introduced to me by a pdoc.
I am wishing you a good nite's sleep, I seldom have them but when I do I feel like a million bucks
Take care and welcome to the forums,

Hi Septembermorn
I'm a little leary about taking sleep aides. A person can depend on them. I'm not one for taking pills. I have to be pretty sick or in pain to take one. Aside from my prescribed medication.
I dont know, maybe I'll try something. I'll see what my doctor says. I have always had that problem but mostly on sundays.
It's good therapy for me to just write down my thought. Thanks for reading and writting back.

thanks darkeyes
Actually No I haven't mentioned it to my doctor. I have had them all my life. It never occured to me the possiblity of Bipolar. I dont think they are a symtom of it. You made me want to look into it though.
