I did not sleep well at all and my stomach was very upset. I had a situation on my mind, a betrayal from a loved one, and it kept me up almost all night. I only got an hour of sleep and I had to go back to bed late morning for a few more hours. I was not right all day. The betrayal is a situation I can do nothing about, so I have to work on accepting it. Feeling peaceful before bed is key to a good nights sleep.

Sorry to hear your woes, Cassie. I hope you feel better today.

Slept horribly last night! I kept waking up. Finally took some meds at 7am and and slept in til 3pm.

Thanks, Jilly. I do feel better today. I slept better last night too. I worked on forgiveness today and that has brought me peace. I should sleep well tonight.

You have so much going on right now, cassie. It sounds like forgiveness is the best way to bring you peace, so that's a smart choice. Bitterness will only hurt you in the long run.

hmm, not good once more. I keep having to take an ambien. I am going to try to get to bed by midnite and see if i can manage to sleep through the night this time.

Once again i took an ambien to sleep, plus two ativans to calm down enough to let the ativan work. I went to bed at 1pm and woke up at noon-thirty.

Had interesting dreams. Will try to get to bed earlier tonite. Will probably need to use meds. I really would like to be out of bed at 10am.

I slept decently last night.

My problem generally right now is just getting myself all wound down for the night. It seems I am keyed up later at night than I want to be, and then I can't relax for sleep. Once I am asleep I am usually ok unless I am under a lot of stress.

I went to bed a little later than I wanted to but I did not sleep too badly. I feel rested enough.

I am sleeping better this week than last week. I think it's because I made some important decisions. Uncertainty makes me ruminate at night.

Great news, Jilly
