How Did You Sleep Last Night?

[myfanwy meilen]

I am so terrified to go to sleep because I've been having those pesky nightmares all week..How is it th...

maybe try telling yourself in your imagination that you are going on holiday so think of prepping and packing, getting on the plane to a sunny happy place and everyone is laughing smilimg etc and see if as you imagine further into it that you could sleep in that dream.. my heart goes out to you as for 8 months now I cant sleep without them except for that one time when I did that as I used to as a kid to prevent them!! hoping you get a good rest with sweet dreams !!! be strong as you can!

I slept but had nightmares, in one I kept telling my father I was going to kill myself. felt real.

I woke up and had been crying but I don't know why, guess I may have been weeping from being so tired.

Horribly!

I can't wind my mind down.

6 hours may seem like a luxury, but I kept waking up and today I'm exhausted. Blah.

I woke a few times. I have trouble putting myself to bed. I am improving though - quite a lot!

Slept a lot, still tired

I am listening to "The Mindful Way Through Anxiety" and "The Mindful Way Through Depression" as backdrops to my sleeping so I don't wake paniking about imminent sexual abusive.

Second day sleeping in the bed again

 

[Fadeaway]

Can't sleep with the physical pain I am in. Couldn't afford the $130 medication I was prescribed for the pain and have to wait until Tuesday to reach the neurosurgeon to see if he can replace it with something covered by my insurance.

Couldn't sleep till 7 or 8 am. Dissapointed as I had gotten my sleep pattern relatively good but there we go.
At least I slept.

Last night I didn't sleep good. My sleep has been bad lately. There have been scheduling issues with my therapist and as a result I'm noticing myself more symptomatic. My sleep has definitely been impacted. I've been having nightmares more frequently. I've been having long detailed weird dreams. I'm waking up during the night. And something that doesn't happen often is happening again. Outright insomnia. No matter how tired I might be. The other night I tossed and turned until about 5am. Factor in chronic pain and I feel like I'm going to bed at night and it's an ordeal instead of rest.
