I didnt nap today at all. Usually after therapy, if I’ve nothing else on, I will nap in the afternoon. I get so drained after therapy that I am usually not able to stay awake.
Today though I managed to stay up. I call that a success. Now I’m just hoping I can sleep good tonight.
The plan is to try to go to bed at a reasonable hour, and read for a while before nodding off. But we’ll see how this plan pans out. It may be that my head and thoughts arent going to allow me to rest.
My mind is whirling after what I found out in todays therapy session. It has the kids freaked out too, so much so that Taylor texted Eileen for reassurance. Eileen just texted her back about 20 minutes ago reassuring her that we’d sort it all out.
Lets hope we will.
If you can get into a habit of not napping and going to bed around the same time each night that should help

Yeah I’m going to try that, I hope it will help but I think it will if I train my body then maybe I’ll get some good sleep each night

Yep that’s what I had to do and it worked for me. I get up the same every day and go to bed the same so not to throw off my body

How much sleep do you get every night then? Do you wake at all during the night?

Typically about 6 hours sometimes more or less. Yes I wake up every night at 2am for some reason but have been training myself not to look at my phone or anything and go back to sleep

I wish I had your determination, it’s so easy to look at your phone I’ll get up and go online or something I just can’t lay there with my thoughts whirling I have to be doing something

Well I was like that for years and never slept and after my therapist drilled it into my head for the 900th time I tried it and it worked. Mindfulness is what I do now

I also had to train myself not to look at my phone if I’d wake up. I just turn over and close my eyes. And yes a sleep schedule is important when sleep training🙏🏼
