The one thing I find most frustrating things people say to me when I haven't had any sleep is you should do something during to make you tired, then you will be able to sleep. They don't realise that it as nothing to do with what you have done during the day I don't sleep well. For example last October I had a day trip to Lands End from Nottingham with me driving. I still did not sleep well that night.

Right on! So accurate.

Keep busy to make me more tired? That will help me to sleep thru the nite? Bah Humbug!

Sorry I don't have a magic pill to give to you to make that discomfort disappear.

Be the best you can be and praise yourself for every step forward into a more comfortable life.
