I hate insomnia.




			Current Mood: crappy

For two days I haven't really been able to sleep, and when I do sleep, it's really fitful tossing, and turning, waking up every so often.

Needless to say this doesn't make Jeff a happy person. To say nothing of my work output....

Nor does Jeff finding out he can't really have something he really wanted. At least not -now-. (sorry

dragoni82, no surprise for you.)

So what to do when you have all this? Think depressing thoughts, be annoyed that you can't sleep, etc. Write angsty (cryptic) journal entries. Read. Set more traps for mice. Attempt more sleep.

I dunno. Just. GRR.

As someone put it, I have a job that pays my bills, no overweening debt, no majorly destructive habits...so why do I feel so like I need to -fix- something about me to make me better. What is it I'm lacking? Decisiveness? A need to be responsible?

I'm tired of second guessing myself.

Or maybe I'm just tired.

::Huggle::
The board recommends hot chocolate and a fuzzy blanket for improved sleepiness.
At least, this is what they told me last time.

You always feel worse about yourself when you haven't slept enough. *huggles* Maybe you're missing the neighbors? ;)

Indeed.

There not here, and I can -still- blame them.

BEAUTIFUL.

Yes, yes you can. They got you so used to being woken up that now you do it automatically. Yeah, that's it. *kicks 'em*

I know where you're at mate.. I've been having the same sleepless problems.. I don't know where they stem from, but a good thing to always do is attempt to find out why.. whether that is eating before going to sleep, or the fact that your pillow just isn't comfortable anymore.. Or perhaps it's even stress... *hugs*

I hate insomnia

and i hate second guessing myself

sleep cures so much, it does - maybe you can still have what you really want soonish afterall, just a little more thinkiness about what that is and why? Re: "fixing", now if you would just be a tad more generous with yourself and spend a little bit of effort instead thinking about what you DO like about yourself...

Yeah, what she (I hope you're a she, if not, apologies) said. You could definitely be a lot more generous with yourself. We all like you, clearly you have to have -tons- of good qualities. Maybe you just need to spend some time and see them for yourself.

I've been there. In fact, I had something similar happen to me this week. Quite probably for similar reasons as you.

Once in college, I had a case of insomnia where I did not sleep at all for three nights straight. I'd lay in bed, awake, for eight hours a night instead. The physical rest helped a great deal, but of course, my mind was crap. The major cause of that was depression. That was the worst, though I had plenty of one-night cases of insomnia around that time period.

Hope you feel better soon.

She's right. Lack of sleep brings out the insecurity and feelings of worthlessness you normally ignore when you're rested.

You're witty, you're wonderful, and you're loved. Life doesn't get much better than that.

stop being me.

	It could...

But now I'm being demanding.

Which I guess means I'm not you. *runs away* ;)

But why?

His feelings reached an intensity hitherto unknown to him. He relived the experiences of an infinitely varied life; he died and was reborn, he loved ardently and passionately and found himself separated once more and forever from his beloved. At last, toward dawn, when the first light began to dissolve the shadows, a sense of peace began to grow in his soul, and the images became clearer, more permanent…
