So, how many of us have insomnia.

Note, by insomnia I mean an inability to sleep for at least 2 days in a row on a regular basis.

Yes! I wake up on the middle of the night anxious about what I need to do on the next day.

Well I guess acording to you def. of not being able to sleep for two days in a row I guess I wouldn't, But I think I do. In a normal week, if I don't take my clonazepam to help me sleep, two days I will get 2 hours of sleep or less, it takes me around an hour to fall asleep everynight, and I can't sleep more than two hours straight but usually I fall back to sleep within 15 minutes but about 2 days out of the week it will take hours. I also rarely get more than 6 hours of sleep a night. I usually have to take a 1-2 hour nap most days to catch up on the missed sleep some b/c the lack of sleep gives me headaches.

I have. Note I say have had insomnia (for like 4 yrs or so) because I always try to keep it in the past tense and not become attatched.

 

[chris11]

good idea.

 

[incomprehensible]

no, unless something big is coming up next day i sleep fine but heres the funny part i never do anything big like work or meet people, i just avoid all that putting me in my little isolated comfort zone. Bed for me is the ultimate relaxing sanctuary where nothing can stress you or get at u. Bed is my xanax.
