Not sure what stress factor in my life caused it, but I woke up last night and could not fall back to sleep. I don’t know when I got up, only that after what felt like ages I checked my clock and it was 3:30AM. It was several hours before I was able to go back to sleep.
I wasn’t nervous or anxious or anything, sleep just would not come to me. ironic since I may need to be up late tonight moving desks.
Once I cannot sleep I just lie in bed and my mind races I mile a minute. Then I can’t fall back to sleep. I don’t know what happened, but eventually I tired out and fell back to bed.
Some people have suggested that I get up and actually do something when I can’t sleep like that. I always thing if I do that I won’t go back to bed at all, and my sleep pattern will be screwed up. I did think about getting up this morning, but I stuck it out and eventually went back to bed.
I just hope it doesn’t happen again this week.
