I’m utterly grateful for this forum. I no longer feel alone and hopeless. Anxiety about sleep and anxiety from NOT sleeping is my main feeling along with fatigue. Things are getting better,
the tools I’m implementation are slowly working, Thank you!Hi Miko, Isn’t it delicious to sleep even 4 hours in a row!? When I get 5, it’s heaven.
I have been practicing SR for about a week. I have had two nights with little or no sleep as well. Following those nights I slept solid for 7, first in over a year and half. I’m thinking the no sleep is part of peaks and valleys until it’s not.
Hello Scott, Thank you for your reply. I have been implemented Bed Restriction for the past week. First, I started with the “Big Guns” staying awake for 36 hours and going to bed at 3, waking at 7. It was too extreme for me at this point. So now I’m still playing around with time to bed ( only when I’m sleepy) but I always wake at 7. Currently, I head to Bed around 11 ish and if I do not fall alseep or get a panicked rush, or anxiety I get up or sit up and read, go outside, watch breathing videos. It seems to be helping block the sleep time for longer lengths. I know it’s early yet but I’m excited to see any sort of improvements. I am grateful for this group.
It is so refreshing to hear everyone’s story. It can be utterly deflating to deal with this. I’m grateful to all of you.
I hear you! Same here, ALWAYS been the best sleeper, feeling energized and refreshed. I just started Bed Restriction and am going to sign up with Martin, getting my life back!
Leo, I’m so sorry for your loss.
I understanding the “jolting” awake very well. I also, could fall to sleep instantaneously. We all will again.
