How Did You Sleep Last Night?

I slept just one hour. And the night before two hours. (Some noises like screams, or snarls do startle me from my sleep. They aren't "real" they are part of my dreams. I'm so overtired today that I could kick everyone and everything that makes a noise!!! :mad: It's going like this for months now!
 
Last night was around maybe the 7/8th time I've stayed over at my girlfriend's. One of the first nights, I woke her up by screaming in my sleep, "get him away from me" and similar things, she said she was terrified. Couldn't remember a thing about it.

Last night I had the recurring dream about the car crash going off the bridge and I woke us both up by screaming a prolonged f bomb and rising up!

Was pretty funny though, as I rose up and turned I came clean off the bed and skelped the floor. My bed's only 2 feet off the floor but her's is just over 3, made some thud haha!
 
I appear to be in an actual sleeping pattern now. I'm tired and in bed by midnight, and I'm naturally waking up around the same time each morning.

I slept for 8 hours last night, with one nightmare to wake me up. It's progress from all-out insomnia. Now I need to keep the routine going and find a way to ignore the impact of nightmares.
 
Almost 2 3/4 hours of sleep. Hooray! I can say I'm about to become a lazy sleepyhead... Boiled some water to make tea, then I scalded my left hand beause I'm so very tired right now, that I missed the teacup, but poured the boiling water over my hand. Darn sstupid me!! :banghead::banghead::banghead:
 
Last night I put on a sleep tape, then some relaxation music, then a relaxation video with music - Errgh! Finally, I succumbed and took half of an old pain killer. It knocked me out for about four hours. Got up this a.m. and went to take my (new) multi vitamin and noticed they are 3 or 4 times the strength of the ones I normally take - and yesterday I took two of 'em! Not today though . . . We'll see what this evening brings.
