I never sleep... To many depressing thoughts runs through my head.

Ugh I’m sorry

 

[The Coop Crew]

Me. I live on about two to three hours of sleep a night.

That's literally me and my mom I usually get in bed at 2230, stay awake either on BYC, staring at the ceiling and thinking, or zoning out into a semi-lucid state of awakeness where I can hear and see my dreams, but am awake and in the real world. Almost like hallucinating but not. It's complicated, and rarely happens. Most of the time I'm on BYC.

It's 2300 and I am.

I have times where I’m sleeping but I know I’m sleeping. It’s really strange
I’m on BYC and watching Law and Order. Hoping I sleep soon

I don’t think so. It feels like I’m just sleeping so lightly that I know I’m sleeping. It’s like an in between state. I’ve never been a great sleeper but it’s much worse since I’ve had kids because I’m always worried that they will wake up and I need to be able to hear them.

That's really unique.

Well I’m awake for the third time tonight. Ugh. It’s gonna be a long Monday y’all

Yep, me too. I went to sleep at I think 3am and got up an hour ago. Fortunately, I've been running on 2-4 hours of sleep for so long I'm used to it. It's weird - I feel more rested and alert on 3 hours of sleep than I do on 8.

I was up at the usual 2am. Then back to sleep. Sleeping so well until I heard upset chicken sounds wafting through the window. around 5:30am.

Grabbed a rifle and went out to find a bear tried to break into my coop. It didn't get in. All the chickens are OK.

It ripped the poop clean out door off and knocked some things over.
I thought I saw a shape behind the coop but it's shady so hard to tell.


So now I will be sleeping lightly if at all for a while.

Did you get back to sleep? I didn’t go to bed until around midnight but slept pretty decent.

It took awhile but I did. Almost to late to do much good.

I'm about to the point I may have to stop taking all meds that induce sleep for a week to 10 days and then start over so they will work.
