Okay, so this is my a basic outlook on my
sleep patterns for the past two days.
I go to sleep at about half eleven or
later, as per usual. It always takes me a
while to fall asleep; about half an hour
to even an hour on occasions.
For the past two nights it has taken me
what seems like an insanely long time to
fall asleep. I just end up lying there
thinking about anything possible, wether I
want to or not.
I'm not actually sure if i've had any
sleep for the past two night. I mean,
sure I guess I have. But I can't figure
out if I have actually slept or not o_o
either I got no sleep, or I woke up well
over ten times. Each time it takes me
ages to get back to sleep (if I do), but
the next thing I feel is that i'm awake.
Again.
In the morning I don't actually feel
physically tired, even though i'm awake
about an hour earlier than usual. During
the day I get more and more emotionally
tired; snapping at people, having no
impulse to work, feeling drained. When it
comes to night time, i'm looking forwards
to a good nights rest (but staying up late
anyway). But instead I find myself being,
or feeling, constantly awake.
I've done a bit of research and the most
likely thing to come up is insomnia o_o
does anyone have any good links or same
experiences? I'm not quite sure how to
approach my parents with it all. "hey mum
*explains all* looks like I have
insomnia!" :3

Hi. I've found exercise before bedtime a
great way to reduce extra energy you might
have held over from the day. I used to
have insomnia pretty bad but I found
changing my diet, taking an interest in
hobbies and exercise helped alot.(also
have 2 year old daughter that helps out)
