I hate nights & early mornings like this...

When I havent slept, and my mind won't stop thinking about a whole range of things..
Constantly feeling overwhelmed at of no where, its not as bad as a BAD panic attack, for me there minor panic attacks I can usually handle but it makes it impossible to rest.

I had a bit of trauma & that night my mind was racing out of control. It was a very miserable feeling, being so sleepy, but unable to because my brain was running so fast and was on a play back loop too. I finally got pen & paper to “catch” each thought & write it down, then the next & the next until I had filled a couple of pages & my brain had slowed to a more normal speed. Then sleep was able to over take me. I guess expressing those thoughts on paper & getting them out of my head helped clear it. That was a pretty bad experience & I’m sure hoping that you’re not plagued with this for much longer. Prayers of comfort & blessings for you.,
