Sometimes we just have to do and say what we want to keep us sane. I use to care what people say and think about me. Now it’s whatever keeps me sane. My health my sanity. I do the the same, my husband and I sleep in seperate rooms. I get up so much, maybe up to 10 or more time a night . I get very agitated , so watch a movie, go on you tube. Wish you all the best.AllyJay said:Are frogs waterproof? Do bears poop in the woods? Sorry about that, but sometimes black humour is all that stops me from just pulling the plug. Sleep for me, is something that other mythological creatures do, but not me. I do retire to a horizontal padded sleeping platform, that I believe some call a bed. I call it my padded torture rack. But seriously, after forty years of marriage, my husband and I now sleep in different rooms. When I finally decide that tonight is another of those rinse and repeat, rinse and repeat nights, I just put on the light and either read or knit. If I feel any hope of drowsiness coming on, I try again. I think that for me it's a mixture of past bad insomnia, along with current stress and discomfort. Fortunately my GP (new GP) is very compassionate and prescribes me sleeping tablets...three different kinds which we rotate as I become accustomed to them.
