Okay..okay….. I feel I deserve to be asleep have had no big upsets ,nothing to distract me yesterday.
Just don’t get this waking up at wee hours of the morning.. drat drat drat….a little extra sleep would be nice.
If I worked the nigh shift at 2 am. Could appreciate this. But don’t want to pay for this tomarrow mentally.

I think that's the most frustrating part...not rising super early, but the difficulty in pinpointing why. I suppose, for me, it's due to everything required of working full time. I never had this many sleep problems before that.

I took my sedative Ambien about an hour ago, and I've had my nightmare tablet. I have to be up in four hours for about ten minutes. I was going to fight and stay awake but I think I'll have to try a small sleep. Problem is I won't get back to sleep after waking up even for ten mins. If I fight it and stay awake, I can sleep all day afterward. Hmmmm.

Have a great day tomorrow HL. Good luck with all you do!

Be yourself. Be real. I sat on the floor for mine, in her office. I don't do chairs. I stimmed and didn't make eye contact. I wasn't exaggerating, but I just really needed to be my real self.

Still too wired to sleep. Wish I could throw up the adrenaline.

I take it you're from California...I thought I saw a post that indicated that one time.
