I can't sleep!

It is 12:50 am and I cannot sleep! Brent is out of town and I just can't get myself to relax and go to sleep. It's amazing that when he is home and 9:00 pm rolls around I cannot keep my eyes open and when he's gone, I can't get them to close! He says it's because I'm partying while he is gone. You know, "when the cat's away, the mice will play!" That is not it at all. I think it's that I feel safe and secure when he is with me and when he's gone, my safety zone is missing! Good thing he doesn't travel too often!

I'm the same way! Hopefully he's home soon, so you can sleep! :)

I totally feel the same way! I go into protective mode and play out all sorts of scenarios in my head and what I would do if they happened! By the third night I am so tired because I haven't slept, that I fall into a deep slumber!!

I find Ambien to be a great source of comfort! Either that or have all the kids sleep in the same room with me so I know nothing will happen to them in the middle of the night. Our own little slumber party for my sanity.

Try a hot bath and some melatonin or sleepy time herbal tea!

I'm sorry you're having such terrible problems. It makes everything else seem so much more difficult!

Here's to hoping you find something to cure you!
