I just can't win. I either sleep too much or not at all. The past week or so, I had been so tired and sleeping 24/7 literally! Now of a sudden, the tiredness is gone and I can no longer sleep. It's almost 5am and I have to be at my volunteer position for 1pm and I haven't even gone to bed yet because I'm sooo wide awake and my mind is racing and I am just not tired. Ugh! I hate this! I wish for once, I could just sleep like a normal person

Hi Amanda,
I recently read a book that I got at Amazon for a little over $10 US minus S&H. It is entitled The Mindful Path to Self-Compassion by Christopher K. Germer, PhD. He has a small section on insomnia but it helps to read the whole book. I hope this helps, Shoe
