Reboot

Oh, the "Battery Brain" ..... don't you just love it when it comes up with some item of interest from some time ago then leaves one worrying about it, writing notes in the mind etc for the remainder of the night ?

I've had intermittent insomnia and disturbed sleep for as long as I can remember (my husband tells me I can jackknife into a sitting position like a ninja, which I cannot do when awake!), although it did improve as I got older. I don't need much sleep, 6 or 7 hours is a really good sleep for me, so I coped pretty well with the dexamethasone induced insomnia. I'm sleeping better now I'm off the steroids, but I'm now getting hot flushes at night, and the doona on, doona off routine is something new to add to the mix 🙄 I haven't even started hormone therapy yet 😐

I hope you have a better one tonight, @cranky_granny. xx. ALL of us!

I had a really crap night like that last night (and a few during the last week) ..... it was a shocker.  Tossing & turning, must have turned my pillow over 25 times ....  & totally unable to nod off - I probably had 2 hours 'disturbed sleep' and felt totally stuffed today!  :( 
I've Had a few like that recently ... usually my CBD oil helps me sleep .... not on these nights :(   grrrrr

It’s really hard to turn the brain off! Most of the time, it’s the last thing I want to do but it’d be 
handy to have a switch at 3.30 am! My sleeping issues have nothing to do with BC or treatment but are rather unpredictable. I slept really well for four nights in a row, no sleep aids and then didn’t last night. Ah well, at least I know it’s possible!
