Constant Waking-

I am having trouble staying asleep. I wake up almost every hour some nights. Others I can go maybe three.

This started last year at that hell job when I had to wak up at 3am to get ready psychologically.

Does anyone keep waking up??
 
Gosh, yes, at least every hour as you say, sometimes even more than that. Feel as though all I ever get is interrupted fitful dozing and that weird semi conscious state that goes along with being halfway between sleep and awake.

Yes, I have constant flashbacks or nightmares at night. I wake at 1, 3, and then stay up most nights. My doctors mutters something about reading an insomnia book every time I ask for sleeping tablets, I really don't think he gets it.

I think it is the nature of the beast for a lot of us. The brain is trying to figure this all out and sleep is a good time for it to do so. It is exhausting, terrifying, unsettling, and so very frustrating. Do you keep a log of your dreams or are they too disturbing? There may be a pattern to them that will allow you a key to break them.
