Do you ever have times of agitation, and you really don't know why? That seems to be me today, just feels like my nerves are on edge. I know I couldn't sleep last night, and couldn't take a nap either. It is so unlike me, until I actually feel frustrated. Not getting anything done either. That is a totally messed up day. I don't take meds for sleeping, but perhaps I need to see my doctor and get something for nights like I had last night. Well gonna try again. I could sure use a power nap.

I am sorry what you are going through. I have melatonin for sleeping and it works.

I've never tried that, but I've heard of it.

Yeah that would do it. I guess I was just frustrated.

Don´t try to do anything. Watch TV or reread an old book you have liked.

I get upset when the internet media mention why entertainment shows today are not up to my standards of having a good time relaxing. They are woke shows.

Have you ever tried Melatonin? Many people have success with that. Hope you get some sleep. Have a good day.

Sounds like a rough day! I know the feeling... Sometimes those restless nights really throw everything off. A power nap sounds like just the ticket. Hang in there, hopefully things start looking up soon!

My husband had one of those nights. Had a hell of a time getting up to take his meds. Got them down him, though and now he's outside for a while.

They're pretty rough nights. Hope he don't have them often.

I think everyone has experienced it. We will have days when we cannot control our emotions and will get angry at anyone, anything. I think it's due to health problems. Just rest and try to get through today.

I don't take any meds but there are times when I cannot sleep or my anxiety won't let me relax and I like to take natural things, Valerian root drops help me greatly when I need it. Not good smelling or testing but just some with cold water and down the hatch and they relax the whole system,

Sometimes, things are rolling in front of my eyes. Even when I shut them, it still happens. When that happens, I can't sleep.
Sometimes, I see star charts that keep flipping through my head. I have no idea why. I am lucky if I can find the Big Dipper in the night sky so I am not an expert. Go figure.

I am like a zombie the whole day if I don't get sufficient sleep. Try to distract yourself with something like TV watching/ reading/ music/ walk.. whatever works for you.
