Hey everybody out there…my insomnia is back and this is round three for me. I decided to join because no body in my real world can truly understand. So I just wanted to say hello to you all and know that I have a new support group that I can turn to while I get thru this crap.

Hi there. We undertand what you are going through and are here for you.
Hi, annie t,
You're absolutely right…non-insomniacs don't have a clue about going through life half asleep and half awake. What's more, they don't care if we sleep or not.
They don't know the amount of frustration it causes. They don't know how it compounds, night after night. If we miss one night of sleep, then we get so caught up worrying about sleeping the next night that we don't sleep the next night, either. And on and on it goes.
It's definitely a horrible condition to live with. Only an insomniac knows how another insomniac feels, and there are lots of us.
Welcome to Insomnia Land.

It is the same for those with chronic pain and with chronic migraines. The stupid things I've heard people say to these folks is awful.
By comparison, those with chronic depression get off easily. Don't understand it, but that's my experience. BTW, I'm bipolar.

If we can't help, we can at least support sympathetically!

Not here in Scotland way too cold :0)
A party with a bunch of insomiacs would be fun because we could stay up all night together. Kinda like my college days when we would try to stay up all night. The irony KILLS me now!!!
