How Did You Sleep Last Night?

[presentjoy]

Last night's dreaming was a little gentler. But I just cant get enough sleep, I feel always tired.

 

[Barberian]

I got a couple hours of sleep, then the pain settled in, and couldn't even get the short series of naps that I normally call my regular pattern of sleep.

I've been anxious since that nightmare the other night. I'm so tired of fighting the anxiety. Last night I had a series of disturbing dreams. That made me even more anxious all day today. I just realized I'll be getting ready for bed in a little while. And I felt myself cringe. I'm so hesitant to go to sleep. I want to sleep to escape. I want to wake up tomorrow but I don't want to wake up tomorrow and have yet another day of anxiety. Does this ever get better? Does it ever stop? My system is so fried.

Insomnia. Up since 2:30 a.m. Restless when I do get sleep. Makes me tired, but I can nap if I need to, so it's ok, I guess.

I've been sleeping less again...and I've also had a resurgence of nightmares when I finally do manage to get some sleep. I dozed of earlier this afternoon but was woken up by my cough maybe 20 minutes into it. Sigh.

I used to take attarax but that stuff would knock me out... that is when I finally fell asleep. 9am here and I just took some Remeron that my doctor had prescribed me (that I begged her after putting me on so many different types of sleeping pills). She was apprehensive to prescribe this to me, I know I took it a few times but can't remember if it helped or not

Hard to fall asleep last night and stay asleep - maybe got four/four-and-a-half hours? No nightmares or bad dreams. I just seem to be processing things in the back of my mind (during the day also) and it's zapping my energy :-(

I slept for 6 hours, woke up at 7, decided there was nothing worth getting up for, and went back to sleep til 1 in the afternoon. I had a horrible nightmare when I fell back asleep; that'll teach me not to stick to the routine of getting up and fighting the depression.

Oh, Hypersomnia, I haven't seen you in a while, but I can only assume Insomnia is on holiday and you're taking over. What happened to RegularSleepPattern? I was fond of her for the little while she was around, and she is far preferable to you Hypersomnia.

Sigh. I don't want to let myself fall back asleep again tomorrow if I wake early. I will put a note by my bed saying to get my lazy butt up.

3hours with bad dreams yeeeehah.

 

[presentjoy]

Slept, a while, but with a really vivid intensely bad dream last night. The level of messed upness of this dream was like a 7 on the Richter Scale.

 

[Let It Be]

Can't believe how lately, I am laying down to take a nap, and it is a long nap. I'm so sleepy, that it is like my body needs to rest. Today, I went back and was around someone I had not seen in a long time. It was at a beauty shop, and I participated in the conversations, but it was like when I got home, I needed to lay down which I did.

 

[Chincho]

I can't believe the amount of nightmares I'm having lately. I can't remember when was the last time I had a good night's rest, or a peaceful nap.
