Reasonable sleep!

17 Replies

I had a good sleep last night for the first time in a while. No attacks or nightmares. It did take a while to drift off, and I had to listen to music through my earphones, but I did it. How did you all sleep? Good morning all.

Hiya,

I havent YET lol. i have alot of trouble shutting my brain off at night and am suspecting it may be the meds. Nice to hear you had a good night hun, many more to come i hope xxx

Hi cookster. Sorry to hear you have not slept! If you think it's your meds could it be sorted with a trip to your GP? Do you go many nights with no sleep? Thanks for your reply x

\Hiya,

its Cookie to my friends. I do indeed get alot of nights with no sleep. My GP gives me sleeping pills but they are weak and dont do what it says on the tin lol.

Ive tried every relaxation before bed performance going and nada, nowt, nothing helps. Think i may be a Vamp lol. My GP seems to think the Sertraline 100mg is helping, bearing in mind all he knows is what i want him to know, he doesnt bloomin take them lol. xxx

Sleep deprivation to me is the worst for me, I have not had a night with no sleep at all though hun so I really feel for you. Hope it sorts itself out soon. Hope you have a good day. X

Glad you slept well too whywhy. I sometimes go to bed when I'm not tired and I really overthink things. Definitely need to tire myself out 1st. Had a good morning so far, have been to playgroup. Now what to do!? Have a great day x

sex used to make me sleepy but i cant be bothered even thinking about it, let alone indulging. Thankyou Sertraline lol xxx

in reply toCookster99

Haha cookie, that's last thing on mind with the feelings I have! X

in reply to

LooLoo

I used to do that & then I realized , I would just be lied there over thinking & getting myself wound up

So someone said wait till you are tired & I started to do that & it works for me , may not for everyone , but yes I find it better , once I go to bed I am asleep in minutes

I save things to do at night , like I have loads on my sky plus I need to watch for a start , or say shopping lists or working out how much money I havnt got :D before I no it I am staggering up stairs with no brain power left to torment me :D

You will find what works for you :)

See , I am pleased you seem to be getting used to this already & i no you were a bit apprehensive yesterday , I told you it doesnt take long

O & you have met our friend Cookie :D

Thanks for the tips whywhy. Yes I am getting used to it, already it's helping. Talked to some nice people already & it feels so good that we're all on the same page. One thing I will ask though, is there any type of notification apart from email when someone replies? I'm seeing things a while later x

in reply to

Not that I no of , but if when replying to someone or like I am you now , if you press under the person where it says "Reply to this " it should come up in your emails when they have

If people are not pressing that , then we wont see they have replied

This site with it been new , has had a few teething problems , so if you are pressing "reply to this "& not getting them let Admins no , they will help

But it could be that a few have not realized that are new they need to press that to make sure people see it in their emails

Dont worry though if you miss someone , i do often

Ok thanks hun. I'll keep an eye on it. It would be a great idea though for some sort of notification. Would help me anyway ha xx
