Well for those that know me will know that I am battling with insomnia, well the past couple of nights Ive had some quality sleep and it was really good, tonight I had a feeling of anxiety and I reckon I’ll be up all night but it’s not as bad as what I’ve had in the past month or so.
It’s like my brain is trying to have a little battle with me! But like I said this anxiety feeling I’ve got now is nowhere near as bad as it has been, which makes me think I’m winning the battle,
So I thought I’d write a post on here because without you all I doubt I would of done this and now I’ve nearly finished writing this my anxiety has calmed down.
So it’s good night from me and thanks for listening
Pete xx

You are doing just fine Pete, you may have a good night tonight after all, let's hope about this!
Thank you for your comment, to think I have given you inspiration makes me happy, although last night I was awake feeling anxious and stressed for no reason but I got through it. I actually felt that I would rather have a cigarette so long as I could get some sleep.
Well I didn’t cave in and I got through it, I find it hard to tell the loved ones near me what I’m going through maybe because I don’t want them to worry, yet I find this friendship we all have on here has helped me and made me stronger.
I will be here as long as you need someone to talk to anytime, your not alone
It’s 7 am here. I’ve been up since 4am. Grrr. I think I’m going to try to get an hour in if possible. My lack of sleep is not from quitting just a lifetime challenge But I understand what you’re going through. Hang in there😊
I know the 4am feeling, I was the same myself last night, I’ve got to be up early tomorrow so I’m trying not to have a sleep today, I find it hard after a meal I do feel tired then,
I feel like this insomnia/ anxiety has taken over but I suppose it can only get better, and yes we can do this together
It will get better! It’s been 54 days for me and every night I wake up early with anxiety. It started a 2am, now it’s 4:30am. So it’s getting a little better.i am going to talk to my dr. And see if he has any suggestions.
