Oh and the melatonin was strong. Woke up dazed and foggy.  

Hoping the fog lifts... plenty of "day" ahead, be strong! 

If you like, read last Jparlett's journal 6th September, with good info about getting a restful night of sleep. https://www.fatsecret.com/Default.aspx?pa=memnd&id=113182367hope it helps :-) 

Try a bath with lavender Epst. salts 

I add a small glass of wine before bed; and only take 3mg Melatonin. I couldn't get to bed on time all last week so was short of sleep too. I took vacation today, turned off my alarm, and finally got a decent rest.  

I'm sorry and hope you feel better. At least it's Friday :-) 

oh noo, I am sorry, that is horrible 😕 I woke up at 12 :30 last night and went back to sleep probably at 3:30 am ,  

* Hug * Yes, I have been there. It is normal for me to take melatonin, go to sleep at 9:00pm and wake up at 1:30am. However, I can go to the bathroom and get back to sleep.. unless I start thinking about work. And what I want to happen that day... and what I fear may happen... and.. and... and... :) At times like those I will take another hit of melatonin and meditate on 'letting go'... 

Haha, sometimes I can't go back to sleep not because I am not sleepy, it's my brain thinking about everything, stupid things, now I am tired😴😒 , gosh! 😂😂 

oh gosh, sorry you feel so bad. I guess something did not agree with you from dinner??  

Be strong CDawnie 

Try counting backwards in 3’s, 50, 47, 44, etc. it has always worked for me. 

I take magnesium on a regular basis before bed - it helps with anxiety, depression, muscle recover after exercise and sleep. If you aren't taking that supplement, I would consider investigating it and seeing if it might be helpful.  

Hugs 🤗 

Rock639 - Magnesium, isn’t that the same ingredients in laxatives? 

Must be a Virgo thing. I had a stomach ache kinda too and slept like a baby until 1:11. Couldn’t sleep again. Babysitting grand baby today. Will nap if he EVER does. 

So weird, I also had a stomachache and had trouble sleeping last night......hmmm🤨😜 

I am so sorry you are having trouble sleeping - it makes life so hard when you don't feel rested - hope you find something that helps soon! 

Thanks guys! Sorry so many of you know my pain! I am taking magnesium everyday and it does help keep me regular 😬 lol I fall asleep easily but wake up to pee and then my mind is moving 10k miles a minute and I can’t turn it off. Sleeping has always been an issue for me. Even as a child. But my new job is so stressful that it is intensifying my anxiety to the point where I’m obsessing over everything and every decision. I just need to chill 

@CrashtestDawnie - Right before you got this promotion... I WARNED you this would happen Virgo! :) :) I went through the same thing. What worked for me was accepting that while I was 'managing people' I actually cannot control or make anyone do anything. Mostly, that things will go wrong. I can only do my best. Now, I am thankful for my health, family, this moment, ect. Now get some sleep! :) :)
