Hi diddle hun,your not alone,I`m still awake and will be for some time yet.And then I get about 3 hrs if I`m lucky.

I have been like this for more years than I care to remember,but one thing I have learnt is to accept it.

You have had a long time now with not a lot of sleep and I bet if we were sat on your sofa with a cup of coccoa,you would tell me you now dread bedtime

When you go to bed,read your kindle for a while or have the radio on low with chat programe.It will either be an interesting chat and you wil fall asleep because you wanted to listen to it.

Or if it is boring try some soothing low music.But don`t feel if possible that just because you are in bed you must sleep.

Let the fear of not getting sleep go.

We fibro`s are notorious for not getting good quality sleep hence the pain..

I wish I was there with you as I would be better able to exsplain it.

But you are in the visciouse cycle of bedtime means no sleep or sometimes very little sleep,so you have come to accept that that is the case.

Maybe a word with your doctor about a very short coarse of sleeping tablets,just to break the cycle you are in is in order.

I really feel for you diddle as I wont go to sleep much before 3 and I`m awake again at 6.

Anyway my little carrot crunchie friend throw away the fear and say what will be will be.And then have a word with the doc.

Love and Hugs Butterfly xxxx

hiya and thanks for all that advice it really does make sense what you said yes i think i may go to gp and ask her for a small course of sleeping tablets to try and break the cycle you are so right my partner leaves at 11 pm and i know i dread coming up to bed as i know i will lay here for hours jus watching crap on telly and drifting off for few mins then i will jump like you do with fibro

i don know all i have done all my life well all 46 years of it as care for people and put everyone 1st and i am not a selfish person i love to see people get on like my friends and my family i love to see them get on my kids too

. i am the sort o person i do the lottery with my sister and if we evr hada big win i woould pro give most of it away to all my family and friends as long as food in cuboards and my bills are paid and i got a car to get me from a to s that is all you need

so i dont know what i have done to deserve this when you get all those cruel people in the world but then like i said in a blog few days ago i am gonna say i was picked as i am special and also i wouldnt wish this on anyone either so it is a vicious circle isnt it of pain guilt ranting lol oh well i am gonna turn this off now r iw ill be on here all night or morning and i dont wann get into that cycle either

lovely to chat to you and thanks alot hope to chat aga in soon love to you diddle x
