How Did You Sleep Last Night?

I always sleep well these days- 6 hours +. Nightmares and sleep problems used to haunt me incessantly since I was a child but for some reason that stopped a few years ago. I really empathize with everyone that is struggling with sleep problems.. they SUCK!

I know I still have nightmares and bizarre dreams.. but recently I haven't been able to recall many of them.. which is pissing me off.

I know I had a dream the night before last that I was walking through blood and my gum boots were full of blood can't remember the rest of it though.
 
I had a horrible time at Walmart last night and had to take a bit extra Valium after ten minutes just to stop the repeated blackouts. I vaguely remember bits of shopping after that, then a really hilarious though slightly disturbing dream. Benzos give me wonderful dreams. I woke up 14 hour later so I'd call that a pretty fair sleep. Been having horrible nights all this week so a great relief. Feel like a napnmight be in order but resisting, would like not to throw off sleep tonight if possible.
 
So so for me last night took while getting off then slept ok till 4ish, then seemed to cat nap and watch the clock from there on.
 
My second night of ambien was better than the first. About 20 minutes after taking it I started to feel a but loopy and tired. I then fell asleep pretty soon but oddly woke up at 530 for no reason and then just kind of dozed after that.
 
Did not sleep last night after taking 2 benadryl, so I got up and started cleaning out a cluttered room I've been neglecting. I got sleep later in the morning, at about 9:30am.
 
Bad night last night lay worrying and then there was an almighty bang I froze to scared move, turns out picture had fell off wall on the landing. Cat napped but felt very uncomfy and worrying not sure what about. Talk About things that go bump in the night lol.

Yikes!! Had that happen before, spooky! Dang painting actually took off into the middle of the room!:eek: I do that kind of thing well either :(

Last night had sad yucky dream that my older (PTSD Sufferer, combat bad) brother sent me a long letter describing the death of his two daughters and sent a bunch pictures, in there were pictures I had sent over the years. I was crushed! The girls, which he doesn't have because he has boys-it's my younger brother that has the girls- had died from a fire, were my favorites and I was beyond grief when I suddenly saw pictures of my sweet Susie who is gone as well. I woke up heavy with pain.
 
(((((Kp))))) hope you slept ok last night after your night out.

Bad night sleep for me last so restless tossing and turning unable to get off think spent most it awake just lying there than did asleep.
 
My Effexor and Ambien actually helped me have a decent nights sleep last night! I even had to wake up early AND my wife was away from home! Normally I would be paralyzed until she got home but I fell asleep!!!! Wooooo!!!
