      I finally managed to sleep until 7 oclock this morning. I have been sleeping good over the last year but kept waking up at 5:30am which is much too early for a night owl like me.

      What I did different last night helped a lot. I sit up on the couch, did not lay down. I watched tv which I always do at night. I had such a hard time not falling asleep at 9 or 10 pm. I even walked around my livingroom and diningroom when I started to get sleepy.

      I even fell asleep sitting up last night for a few minutes which was weird. I was just trying to make myself uncomfortable so I would not fall asleep.

      I stayed up until 11:30, will try to go to 11:45 tonight. I just know I can sleep later in the morning which felt great. I felt more refreshed and more like myself. I was grateful to have been sleeping this year but 5am did not feel good at all for me.

      It is so hard for me to not fall asleep at night early (cant believe I am saying that,at one time I could not sleep at all) but trying different things to stay up. Sitting up and dont lay on that couch! Maybe go wash my face. Anything ya have done to stay up? I cant go outside, dark and may fall over something.
