[QUOTE="Californiablonde, post: 613983, member: 2196"] I have tried going to bed later and it backfires. I wake up around midnight regardless of when I fall asleep, so if I go to bed at eleven I'm basically getting only an hour of sleep instead of three or four. I have no idea what is going on in my brain, but it's clearly psychological. Otherwise, why am I sleeping just fine on holidays and weekends? When I do wake up I am not thinking about anything in particular. I try my hardest to lay there and think of absolutely nothing, but of course being awake that many hours, my mind does tend to wander. Maybe I will try your technique, InsaneCdn, and journal. Perhaps writing will make my mind tired enough to go back to sleep. OH, and when I said earlier that I'm only irritable in the afternoons but not tired? Well forget that. Today I actually am feeling tired, and it's only 11:30 in the morning. Maybe it's a good sign. Maybe I'm so tired I will actually sleep through the night later on. I hope and pray. At least tomorrow is Friday and for that I am eternally grateful. [/QUOTE]
