laurience

Can you sleep? I can't, however the house could be falling apart and my husband's head will hit the pillow and into dreamland.. uuughhh!! I could just punch him. Not really but I am very jealous..

When something is bothering me to the point of me not being able to sleep, then it's time for me to get out my journal and start writing. Usually after about 15 minutes or so of writing and venting I am then able to sleep and can read what I wrote the next morning with a clear head.

hi laurience -

I don't know where you're at in your recovery, but not being able to sleep is quite common, I'm told.
At least that's what these books are saying.

My whole life, I've not really been a sleeper so much as a napper.

Right now, I'm experiencing my body healing itself, and re-learning to shut down for maintenence without alcohol, so I'm up and down all 'night', too.

(I work graveyard shift, so my 'night' is most people's 'day'. I'm either getting used to it, or it's wearing off after 64 days sober, I'm not sure which.

Then again, I live alone, so I don't have to listen to someone else snoring while I'm staring at the ceiling, either.
