How Did You Sleep Last Night?

[WildMermaid]

Snuggling Hello Kitty helped but I'm only getting a couple of hours of sleep a night. How are you all doing on the sleep front? :hug:

Sleep seems to always be tough for me especially this past week. Haven't gotten to bed when I normally like to it's been a few hours later and I still tend to wake up at least three times in the night. I always wake up tired and wanting more sleep.

ditto @holdenmonty *nods* same thing here. Do you sleep with stuffed animals?

 

[holdenmonty]

I don't usually I have a couple times because my three year old has said that this or that stuff animal wants to sleep with me. I usually cuddle up with my pillow and my blanket.

But growing up I did sleep with a stuffed animal. It was the first stuffed animal I was ever given his name is thumper. My parents put him on my bed at their house.

O and cuddling with my wife works a little bit helps me feel better but it's so hard to actually fall asleep while cuddling for the both of us.

I slept solid but woke up from a nightmare about a person causing chaos. It haunted me for the morning but I am ok now.

I slept like crap last night... between my brain throwing me into almost like a virtual reality when I closed my eyes and my one year old crying for me about every five minutes until about midnight even when I was holding him I remember seeing the clock saying midnight and then I think I remember seeing it saying 3 or something around 3 and tossed and turned just about all night.

woke up panicked like when flashbacks only no night terrors or flashbacks, felt like my body was being crushed. can't stop crying today- think it is time to revisit therapy though am scared. Have fever and feel like death on a stick today. not sleeping is becoming dangerous i think. i don't even make sense to me to me today. *shakes head sadly* :hug: Hopefully sweet sleep to any who can get some. <3

Sounds like it would be very beneficial for you to revisit therapy and maybe even do a sleep study so they can map your brain activity

Didn't sleep longer than two hours. Awoke because of the massive pain in my face = Acute suppurative sinusitis. Even with painkillers, finding sleep again is very difficult. Sh!t!
