Sleepy McSleeperson

My sleep schedule has been so off for the last 6 months, and frankly, I don't know how much longer I can take it! Unfortunately, there's not a lot I can do about though. I go to sleep just fine, I've never really had a hard time with that. The problem comes around 3:00 AM. I wake up on average 10-15 times between then and when my alarm goes off at 6:00 AM. I don't stay up for too long, I wake up, look at the clock and usually go back to sleep. But having that many disturbances really doesn't let me get good sleep.

When my alarm goes off, I can barely get out of bed. I'm not kidding when I say that I brush my teeth and take a shower with my eyes closed. I usually blow dry my hair with my eyes closed, too. If I weren't standing or sitting up, I know I would fall asleep. If I didn't get to talk to HBFB every morning on the way to work, I'd be worried I'd fall asleep then, too.

I did make a switch on my anxiety medication, and my doctor and I are hopeful this will help my sleeping, or should I say lack of sleeping, problem. It takes a while for it to build up, so I'm trying to be patient.

Yawn.

  1. Patiece is a hard to come by when your functioning on no sleep. I feel your pain, I've never been to good at the whole sleeping thing.

    Also I figured out the whole comment thing... I can't leave comments from my work computer, only my personal computer.
