In Nursing, I worked long hours of shift work and being on call. My husband snores loudly. After retiring, I thought I would began getting good nights sleep. However, I don't sleep. I go to bed between 12:30 --2:00AM and generally sleep til 6-7 am. I take Ambien every night. Sometimes I have choactic dreams but not often. My mother, sister, brothers all had the same problem... just heredity, I guess.

I would get up and sew but I feel so tired I think I would just make silly mistakes and get even more frustrated :(

WTF!!!

I also have sleep apnea and use a mask and while it seems to be helping somewhat, it's not the "cure-all" I was led to believe!

No, I don't sleep.. Last night not at all.. by the time I felt sleepy it was almost 7am.. so I didn't bother. I never ever nap, or I'd never get any sleep.. usually I go to bed about midnight, get up about 2.. go back to bed about 5 and get up at 7 or so.. so what's that 4 hours with a 2 hour wake time in the middle.. I get up.. I lay there a few minutes, but if I'm wide awake it makes no sense to just lay there to me... Last night I came in here and was messing around on the computer when I discovered that my girlfriend was also awake and on her computer!!
