Insomnia

[Troll]

It's a bitch!

Indeed. I hate my sleeping patterns. I have tried everything from extended sleeps, extended waking hours, drinks and eating time modifications, etc etc, to regulate it and stop regular insomnia but nothing works (and I dont want to take pills).

I think mine may be due to being hyper from concentrating during a 3 hour drive home from Bristol

Did actually fall asleep but a dream (about my kids old school) woke me up

Plus some nagging technical challenges that I need a cunning plan for

One things for sure...I'll be having a nap sometime tomorrow (today) but as I'm wfh I'll probably get away with it

Good luck. Hope you get that nap you need.

What are you interested in? Science, natural history, stamp collecting? Stick something that interests you on TV or radio in bed and see if you doesn't nod you right off. Works for me.

Get a Kindle and one of the covers with a built in light, go to bed, read until you fall asleep and it switches itself off.

Handy for me that Mrs BP suffers from insomnia. When kids are ill and wake in the night she has no problem in getting up and sorting them out whereas I sleep straight through.

Though Baby BP as has it - on an average night he will get only 10 hours sleep - not good at aged 4.5!

This might make interesting reading.

Welcome to the club!

Touch wood I seem to be doing well at the moment, but being on the bench really screws up my routine and with it my sleep pattern, I regularly see every hour on my clock so what I have started to do is not have the time visible when I am in bed
