How Did You Sleep Last Night?

[BlackbirdSinging]

I feel like I woke up off and on all night. I think I had a dream about my son. I can remember seeing his face looking at me with his big blue eyes. He's a handsome kid. Although he's 22 now. Where does the time go?

Didn't sleep...too humid and uncomfortable.

Didn't sleep much last night. Left radio on to keep me company. Made it through.

Slept good only one seizure instead of constant ones!

Terrible sleep last night. Took me ages to get to sleep and when I finally did, I had nightmares.

One of the nightmares I had, I was trapped in a big warehouse that had many corridors like a labyrinth and I had to work through a series of dangerous traps with a bunch of people I didn't know in order to find my way out. When I did find my way out, one of the people who'd been trapped with me turned out to be involved in getting us trapped and I found myself lured into another series of dangerous traps that I had to solve. This kept going on and on and on until I finally found a way out with these two girls who seemed as terrified as me and seemed as glad as me to have escaped. But once we'd escaped, they turned out to be involved in the scheme, too, and they tricked me into thinking I was safe with them, and they lured me into another series of dangerous traps I had to solve in order to escape.

I must have woken up from that nightmare and then fallen back to sleep because I then had another nightmare where I was at my grandparents' place (many of my dreams feature that place, the home of my abusers) and my mum was alive and was there. The dream seemed quite pleasant at first, but then it took a sinister turn when I somehow discovered that the reality I was living in was completely false and I was actually trapped in some kind of delusional psychosis and everything I thought was real wasn't real at all. Everyone began accusing me of being insane and treating me like I wasn't to be believed while I was begging people to love me and believe me that what I was seeing was very real to me. God, it was so anxiety provoking.

I think I ended up sleeping about four hours. I'm exhausted today. :(

I didn't sleep much last night. It was a rough night.

I slept well. Thank god.

I can't sleep for more than a couple hours at a time and I hate that my sleep is 'broken up' this way!

I had two nightmares. The first one woke me up. I caught myself saying "oh no" and then falling back to sleep right into the second nightmare.

I'm sleeping ok even though it is really hot in bed. I've been having disturbing dreams though.

I slept great but had a long horror filled nightmare. That is the second one I have had since I lost my husband. I hope the nightmares do not begin again. I have been free of them for so long. I know it is my subconscious trying to work things out for me, but I really hate the nightmares that linger during the day. Hugs to all that need them.

Sleeping has fallen apart a bit. Slept 6 hours last night.
