I haven't been able to put my finger what exactly is wrong. At first, I thought it was because I would sometimes take a nap after work, so I cut that out. Nothing. Then I thought it was the caffeine in the Cherry Coke I drank with lunch, so I cut that out. Still nothing. Let me say, I am exhausted by about 10:00 p.m. I am ready to go to bed, but when I go to bed, I toss and turn. I wake up every hour on the hour. If I have to be at work early, forget it. There's no sleeping for me.
There are a couple of things I can do to help. I never used to sleep with the TV on, now I do. I HAVE to sleep on my side. Also, leftover Percocet from the broken ankle does wonders. Not that I've ever taken one so I could sleep.
Anyway, as someone who has never had sleeping problems, I am asking for help. Anyone who has ever had any type of insomnia, please tell me what helps. I don't want to take Ambien or any other prescription drug, but I really need sleep. What do you guys do?
On a side note, my entire family is now on facebook. My brother, Jared, recently joined so send him a friend request. He refuses to update his status until his "numbers" are up.
Second side note, my other brother, Matthew, has started a blog www.darbyseyes.blogspot.com. He's only posted once since February, but he's at least started it.
