How Did You Sleep Last Night?

[Mcll]

Had the best sleep of my life last night. Husband is on vacation and we went to sleep really early, took a melatonin and slept almost 13 hours through our first snowfall in NY! Had very positive dreams and feel creative today.

I slept great. I had a bad dream about my sister and me being responsible for her and she was not coperating. Left me feeling weird.

I forgot what time I went to sleep. I think I slept horribly late. Yeah, I did- around 7am. I've had a crazy experience this weekend and I think that has tipped my sleeping more off balance also. I dont think it can get any worse than this. This is by far the latest I've slept, I think. I am really hanging on by a thread of hope.

I slept for 12 hours. I did have some disturbing dreams but having my dogs both back with me helped a lot.

I had "exhausted sleep"; meaning, I felt exhausted in my sleep, and though I slept soundly for over ten hours, I woke up exhausted, as though I hadn't slept a wink. I had disturbing dreams, though this has been a norm for me for many years. At least it wasn't a nightmare like it's been almost every other night this week.

I had great sleep, but bad dreams. I woke up feeling pretty good today.

I didn't even bother to try to sleep. I'm too concerned about catching up someday to where we need to be around here, and I was interested in maybe finding a little free and peaceful time as well. Time in which I didn't have to absolutely do work. I did some, but I didn't feel I absolutely must from start to finish. It's 6am and the alarm is ringing.

I haven't slept but a few hours all week. Have had some related memories after T this week which has sent me into a tailspin.
Should I cancel next week because I am not sure I will be able to think clearly? I am pretty messed up this week. Not sure what to do.

More exhausted sleep. Couldn't actually get to sleep until around 7am; when I did finally manage to sleep, it was restless and I had disturbing dreams. Not nightmares, at least. I had to be back up by 11am to attend a meeting, so I have been running on empty all day.

If there are things you can cancel next week in order to lessen your stress and anxiety levels, then absolutely yes. Cancel. Cancel, cancel, cancel. Rest. Ignore things that don't need to be attended to. Be kind to yourself. That's what I would aim to do, anyway. Best of luck. *hugs*

I keep waking up groggy. I've been managing to sleep before 2am but it's not restful. Little snippets from dreams I've had come back and paint the whole day uneasy. Not nightmares, just the kind of things that make you feel queasy about existence. My dreams are full of emotion I'm not used to when awake. Most nights I've been getting sleep paralysis too, loops of it over and over last night, trying to wake up, thinking I had but falling back into it. I've got so many 9am lectures coming up, hope I can keep it together, I missed morning lectures last semester and my grades have suffered.

I slept better, just not enough.
