      When I can’t sleep or I get up sooo early, I feel like I’m the only one in the whole world awake at this time. All the houses are dark around me, no traffic. Just me!

        Hi ksglow56, I can relate. You seem to be the only person who is not able to sleep. And you go to the store or work, and it seems like everybody is rested and refreshed. That no one knows what you are going through, what is wrong with me, etc.

        Basically, that is the insomnia talking. Not only are you tired, but you get all sorts of whacked-out thoughts running through your head. The truth is there are millions of us out here every day who are hammered tired and just trying to make it through the day somehow.

        I hope you stick with this site. You will find plenty of stories like yours. And not just laments, but tips on how to see insomnia as a temporary symptom, like a cold. Hard to see it as temporary when it keeps hanging around, but so much depends on how we feel about it. Is it just a situation at the moment, or are we giving it power by obsessing about it, and trying to think our way out of it.

        You are not alone in this, not even close.
