I cannot get to sleep. It's 3am. I have to be up at 7.30. And instead of sleeping, I'm on my phone, posting on here.

I used to have a lot of sleepless nights but haven't had one in a while. Tomorrow's gonna be fun.

Every now and then I have one of these. It just happens; I get a big bout of insomnia and wind up awake at 4:30 wondering wtf happened, haha.

Usually I just wind up getting up and playing games or something until I get tired enough to pass out.

That happens to me every so often. The best thing you can do, if you don't get to sleep after 20 minutes is to get up and do something else for a half hour before trying again. I often watch something silly, that way I'm not engaging my brain so much that I actually become more awake.

I had a pretty rough night sleeping last night, cos I wasn't feeling great. I got off to sleep fine, but I was having a lot of bad dreams and would wake up every now and then feeling much too warm and with my head pounding. I'm having a couch day today - after spending the last hour and a half trying to get out of bed.

Well, I wouldn't call it sleepless nights. It was only last night. We will see how tonight goes. I don't think it has anything to do with that girl. Although, I didn't anticipate just exactly how much I would miss her. I found myself at work today, looking up at her work area, expecting her to look back and smile at me. But obviously, she isn't there anymore.

Anyway, I was just lying in bed last night, thinking about a lot of random stuff. For some reason, the main thing on my mind was my holiday two years ago. Was thinking about the good times I had and the people I met and how I think I may wanna do it again next year.

I think I ended up getting a couple of hours. It got to the point where I started to hear birds singing outside my window. I wasn't that tired at work though. Although I am feeling very tired now. Hopefully because of that, I will have no trouble getting to sleep tonight.

Lifting weights always tries me right out, so whenever I can't sleep I pick up the dumbbells for half an hour or so. Give that a try.

So it just wasn't me.

My fucking hayfever was the reason for a sleepless night. It tends to flare up in the evenings and I was finding it hard to breathe as my chest was bunged up. So I was drifting in and out of sleep. Somehow, I managed to doze off and grab some hours of kip before getting at 6.40am.

I've read, can't remember where, that if you're having a sleepless night then you're advised not to check the time as this has an effect on you during the day as you're remembering the fact you were up at 4am and sort of helps you feel sorry for yourself at your lack of sleep...? Something along those lines but I didn't do that tbh, still felt tired but that was probably the hayfever more than lack of sleep.
