Awake, well fuck

2:47 and I am wide awake. My sleep is totally screwed up. I had hardly any sleep last night, as you all know, and then today I was busy, so I didn’t have a chance to rest until almost 5 PM.

I went to lie down at around 4:30. I was so exhausted that I fell into a deep sleep. I woke around 7:30. I had arranged a check in call with Eileen at 8, so I stayed up then.

Me and Eileen did talk briefly for a few minutes. And she talked to Emily, Emily told her about what she’d done. We decided that they’d talk properly tomorrow, that was fine, basically it was just a quick call so that Em could tell her what she’d been doing.

After my call, I fell back to sleep until 9:45. I’ve been up on and off since then. I did sleep again a little bit but now I am wide awake. Nitro woke me up at 1 AM to go outside, that is a kinda trigger for us, but I managed it, I let him out.

Tomorrow I’m busy also, I have my PA coming at 9, I have my weigh in at slimming world in the morning, I’m nervous about it, don’t think I’ll be down, not sure, if I am it will be a bonus.

I’m not working today because of going to therapy in the afternoon. I have therapy at 4:30. I’ll have a little free time between when my PA leaves at 11:30 and when I have to leave to go to therapy at 4 PM.

I should try harder not to nap by day, but when I am tired, I am tired, and if I am not doing something, I fall asleep. Its just too easy to do, especially if I go to bed, and am wrapped up underneath my fluffy blanket.

    That sucks you’re still struggling with sleep so much. I really hope things will change soon with this. Having such sleep issues definitely can’t help with anxiety, so I wish it could get better for you.

      Unless I take the Finegan for a few nights in a row I don’t think it’s going to change so I think I’m just going to have to give in and take it even if it makes me groggy in the morning is as Doctor Barry said being groggy for a few mornings is the price I have to pay for a good sleep

    You seem to be like me when it comes to sleep. If I lay down, chances are I’ll fall sleep. Sometimes I wonder if I’m hiding in sleep. There isn’t anything horrendous going on in my life but maybe I have hidden issues and, subconsciously, I hide from them in sleep. Could this be happening with you?

      I suppose so, but I know when I am depressed or feeling low then I sleep more so maybe you’re right

        Maybe this is a question for your therapist. Or not.

        BTW, did that foul up at school get cleared up? I’ve just been thinking about it a lot.

        Yes! Only yesterday it got cleared up. I managed to get them to take the block off of my account so I could see my results. xoxo
