How Did You Sleep Last Night?

f*ckin A.

I’m used to night sweats. Happens every time I hit a nightmare cycle. Sitting/leaping bolt right out of bed, heart pounding, completely soaked through. :wtf: (Easy fix, at home. Triple makes the bed. Mattress pad, sheet, mattres pad, sheet, mattress pad, sheet. Wake up, strip off the wet layer, dump in machine. Slick out of clothes, step in shower, pull on new clothes, fall into dry bed.)

So weirdly, last night? Woke up completely dry and THEN started sweating bullets? WTFO? Half an hour later, I’m done attempting to become a mummy by shifting 60% of my water out as my heart decides to play for a punk band... shower, bed... and then hit the nightmares. Totally not bothered by them (who minds getting bit by a cobra? :facepalm: Fishing out, foaming, wake up... totally. dry. And nonplussed.)

so. f*cking. weird.
 
The autumn insomnia jag is breaking on the rocks, instead of sliding neatly into the harbor. :banghead:

Almooooooost managed to shift into something useful-esque... but have switched from sleeping twice a week, to 2 hours a day in pieces, 4 hours a day together, 7 together ONCE... and dropped out of gear... up 24-30 down for 4. f*ck me. I’m too old for this shit.
 
For some reason, I sleep for about 2 hours at a time. Last night I had vivid dreams about a Native American gathering that I was attending and there were all types of big cats, leopards, lions, tigers, etc. it was a rather intense dream, but somehow I awoke to feel well-rested.
 
I have been laying in bed tossing and turning for almost 5 hours now. This is really not good very important meeting tomorrow/today and I need to be on my game but just can’t fall asleep I even took a half of a second ambien and nothing arrgh
