Some things people have said about their sleep problems
I can go to bed at night feeling dog tired but as soon as that light goes out, my mind bursts into life. I can't shut it down and get to sleep. I toss and turn and feel rotten. My wife is fast asleep in seconds and I'm wide awake.
I wake up and feel that I've hardly slept. I still feel tired and don't feel I've got the energy to face the day.
I'm quite down just now and I find that I can get over to sleep fine but I'm awake at 4 in the morning. And that's me for the night. I'll not get over again even though I want to sleep more.
I have to take a few drinks to get me over to sleep. But I wake up within a few hours and that might be me for ages.
I wake up during the night with a load of stupid thoughts going round and round in my head. I just get up and I spend half the night in the living room. I can't tell you how lonely I feel then. And of course, I am walking about like a half-shut knife all the time.
