I gave up sleep

[Zazayam]

For the past week, I can't sleep. At all. I'm usually in and out of bed all night, up til 5am-ish, nap lightly for a little while, then start my day at 730. The kids are in bed, baby sleeps fine, hubby's sleeping, everything's peaceful. I'm just not tired.. Never in my life had a problem with insomnia, IDK what this is about.

Hubby says he thinks I need some "me" time, and am subconsciously taking it in the only available hours, lol, the middle of the night. I don't feel like I'm neglecting me..

I do admit of sometimes waking up early or staying up late to get some alone time.

Yeah, ive been having this problem too! For the life of me, i cant figure it out!!

I've learned that I wear myself out MORE by trying to force myself to sleep when I don't feel sleepy than if I just get up/stay up and make myself productive in some way. Short term insomnia is workable, but if it goes on too long it can cause health issues. In that case I'd suggest melatonin.

I have a lot of problems with getting sleep.  On Tuesday I did not sleep for 24 hours and Wednesday night I only got 3 hours so I hope tonight I can sleep for at least 6 hours.
