I Can't Sleep, Don't Ask Me
May. 3rd, 2010 12:54 pmOkay I've been up for about two days now this should get to be fun...
I have insomnia. I have CHRONIC insomnia. If love laughs at locksmiths, insomnia snickers at pharmacists. Sleeping pills don't put me to sleep. Everything there is to try? I've tried it. I even flipped my schedule around so I was sleeping days and up nights. That works a little better than sleeping nights, but then every once in a while I hit a patch like this, and there's no point in trying to sleep until I fall over a few days later.
Which brings me to: oh thank god for Dreamwidth. Because it's people and conversation and a nice cup of tea at 4:15 am or 3:15 pm when I am NOT SLEEEEEEPING. And it's nice to not be utterly alone, or feel utterly alone, in the middle of your night, wherever it is.
