so i dont' like sleep. i get to bed really late and wake up pretty early. i don't usually get to bed till after 12, and i wake up anywhere from like 8-10. but i usually lay there forever tossing and turning. i just keep seeing his face i keep seeing what we did. my body will twitch all over and forces me to stay awake. i use to take some sleep pill's but haven't idk why, the pills i have just keep me asleep they dont' put me to sleep unless i'm really tired and ready to go to bed. i guess i havent taken them is because i'm scared if i go near the bottle i'll take way more than i need and i'll over dose or somehting and so i don't want to temp myself more than i already am. any thoughts?
