Sometimes I can’t sleep. Actually, it’s more than sometimes.
At this point, I’ve learned that certain nights are not meant to pass sleeping. Accepting that though, that’s a different story.
I know the morning ahead is going to be mentally foggy, a zombie state, where I can only handle basic slow function.
Sometimes I manage to fall asleep back in the early morning and wake up again; other times there’s too much going on and I remain in “zombie mode” for several hours, perhaps even the entire day if I can’t take a nap.
Perhaps writing this will help. Perhaps I’ll put the phone down again, take my glasses off again, turn to my side, and sleep. I tried several times tonight - I woke from a bad dream about 2 hours ago - so far without success.
Here goes. One more try.
