Absolutely exhausted

Insomnia has been crippling me for the last week. Every night I go to bed exhausted and certain I’ll be asleep in minutes.
Instead I’m awake for hours with dry itchy eyes and a brain that won’t stfu. Urgh.

Ugh, that's awful. I'm sorry. Maybe it's time for some meds. Maybe trying melatonin first.

I've had that a lot recently myself. I have way too much going on in my life right now, and when it's time for me to sleep, all I can do is think. About everything.

Try some allergy medicine it may help with the eyes and and some sleepiness

@NightsWatch thanks for the suggestion, I’m building a resistance to melatonin, so that’s a good idea. Once I sleep the eye thing stops thankfully 🙂

There is nothing worse than insomnia.

@GeistInTheMachine It makes everything seem so much worse. Stupid annoyances get blown out of proportion 🥴

@Fizzle This is exceedingly true!
