Lost sleep, lost thoughts (8/7/2012)

I want 'me' back.
Is that too much to ask?
This inability to think clearly
Is getting me down so much.
Insomnia sucks.
I don't usually get this kind,
The one where you can't stay asleep.
Broken sleep from 6am,
But I am a night owl.
Is this what is causing my other troubles,
The thoughts that don't even come?
Insomnia definitely sucks.
I hope I sleep alright tonight.

  1. My friend,
    Ah, the elusiveness of sleep. I know all to well of what you speak. Sometimes we need to be as active as possible, get some fresh air and try to get the 'inner chatter' down to a soothing whisper.
    Although, under no obligation to acknowledge, I have bestowed upon you an award that I hope gets you further awareness within the sharing, caring blogging community.
    May you sleep tonight.
    In kindness, Gary

  2. Thank you for your kind words, Gary.

    Physical activity is definitely a good option. Not only can it tire us out, but it can also refresh us, allow us to spend time outside in the fresh air, and reduce anxiety. It is also the only thing that I find helpful for managing my pain levels.

    Thank you also for the award. I will hopefully pass it on later in the week if my brain decides to come back off holiday, or at the very least come up with 7 interesting facts as I don't think I even read 7 blogs.

  3. Just to let you know, you are absolutely under no obligation at all to acknowledge the award via some sort of posting. The main aim was to hopefully have more folks interact with you in the finer attributes of an encouraging and supportive blogging community.
    So, don't worry and try and get some sleep :)
