How Did You Sleep Last Night?

I am writing a dream diary in order to recognize any specific pattern. It helps me to understand myself a bit better. The difficulty is that I am sleeping with Dalmadorm although at low dose and with Valdoxan (agomelatin). Lately I am up at 3-4 am dispite of the medicaments.

Returning dreams are: I have unbearable non-physical pain that I loose consciousness or I am screaming no, no, no.

Muscle relaxation technics help sometime. If I wake up I take a herbal medication or when it is really bad (nighmares, panic) Temesta.
 
Once I went to bed I slept good. The plan was I was going to sleep in. But husband woke me up to turn the tv on for him. Poor guy forgot how to use the remote. So I just got up with him and began to wake up. I sure will go to bed early tonight. I know why I stay up. It is time I have all to myself. I love it. I do not like going to bed so early like my husband does. It was fun while it lasted.
 
If I wait til tommorrow I likely won't remember. This morning it is now a ridiculous hr. though for me and if I fall asleep I'll likely stay asleep, but it's the getting to bed and falling asleep that's my challenge. I do not wish to risk laying awake and conscious tonight while in bed. :tdown:..:(
 
Just when I thought I was sleeping well and having 'normal (ish)' dreams, I have a night of awful nightmares. I kept waking with my heart pounding so hard and shaking. I went to the bathroom and my darling dog came to comfort me.

I then saw out of the window a shadowy figure standing still in my neighbours garden watching my house. I was frozen to the spot, logic told me it it wasn't real. It seemed to take ages before I could move and convince myself it was a conifer :oops: - it still scared the sh*t out of me.
 
I slept good and i woke up at a good time. No dreams or nightmares.

(((KP))) I am sorry you had that experience. I am glad it is all over. Big hugs.
 
I have jetlag after a vacation far away. I stayed awake 28 hours trying to combat it. Sleeping on the plane kinda backfired.

Fell asleep around 3am, woke at 8am. Feel pretty weird.
