What is most frustrating about your insomnia?

Well, for me, it's essentially all together frustrating to not be able to fall asleep for a vast array of rationale, reasoning and logic all in one. It's harder still to fall asleep maybe for 1-3 hours, if lucky, and then be restless, sleepless all night long. I have prescription medicines to induce the sleeping process though sometimes I think the Rx mrds merely mock my insomnia and increase my frustrating impatience. ~lol~


Please feel comfortable to share your thoghts, ideas and experiences as we jouney through this tiresome battle togethers.


Peace friebds... Jenn

The most frustrating is not being able to get meds for insomnia. I've tried Ambien.... no help. Docs won't give anything addictive whee I live (Washington State). Would love some input, anything, help, help, anything at all... SMILE !!!

Sometimes I really enjoy my insomnia because it gives me long, interrupted stretches to work on writing or art. Other times I am bored in the early morning hours and want someone to talk to and no one is around. I enjoy the peace and quiet and solitude.

As long as I don't have something to do the next day I don't mind my insomnia. I have come to accept it. I's just what's happening. Since I broke up with my boyfriend my sleep schedule has been so erratic anyway that although it's the wee hours of the early morning on the West Coast it feel like afternoon to me because I woke up so late yesterday
