I really would like to sleep forever. I average 2 to 3 hours of broken sleep a night. I get a new sleep med prescribed, it lasts for a couple days and then I'm back to no sleep. A lot of the meds that would knock people out (like benzos), I take throughout the day to prevent anxiety symptoms.
I was taking a blood pressure medication that has a side use for people with bad dreams. After a day or so, I would have to increase it. I started sleepwalking, so off that med we go.
I started the other blood pressure medication that is used for bad dreams as well. I slept one night solid with no dreams. The next night, I was back to being up all night because of the dreams.
I have hallucinations at night of people in my room and when I ignore them, I start to feel them tugging at my legs trying to drag me out of bed. Oddly enough, I am awake and have to turn the light on to get through the night. Then the hallucinations are back to being just in my peripheral vision, which I'm used to.
I love the idea of sleeping all night, but hate the idea of having to face bad dreams. This is why it would be nice to just sleep forever.
