cure my insomnia

This tapping thing works for me so far.

I’ve done this two nights in a row now, and I’m asleep within 20 minutes after doing a tapping pattern. Wow.

I spoke w/ my HR department, and was given the option of bringing in a doctor’s note to adjust my work schedule, to accommodate the days that I’ve not slept. By law, this will protect me from the incessant bitching by two people in my office. Awesomeness.

I’m so pleased i’ve begun with the acupuncture. Only been to two sessions so far but it already feels worthwhile. Couple of days after the 1st session it took me less than an hour to fall asleep and i slept deeply all night. I felt so refreshed and alive the next day. Not just not tired but so full of energy that I managed to to a very long and full-on day at work without any problems and without feeling overwhelmed, negative etc etc … No big deal, no big drama … just did it all and went home.
I felt so happy i nearly cried! I was so shocked at just how much my insomnia was affecting every part of my psyche and my life – you don’t realise it when you just put up with not sleeping much day after day, month after month and year after year!...

Anyway, acupuncture is not a quick fix … and a couple of days later my normal patterns returned but i’ve had another session since then and I’m hoping continued treatment will help sort this out …next session is a week tomorrow … here’s hoping …

I just want to sleep.

Gotta love those Irish, though.
This is pure genius.

Really gotta deal with this … In fact I think it may be the starting point to sorting myself & my life out.
Its affecting everything … seriously affecting my routine, my working life, my eating habits, making me depressed … and that’s causing a whole host of other problems.

Been going on for so long now (over 3 years) that I accept it as part of how I am but that’s not helping …

Life’s so crap when it takes you 4 /5 /6 hours to fall asleep … only to be shocked into consciousness by a blaring alarm …what seems like … 5mins later!

Tried so many things … nothing’s worked for long so far.
Thinking of acupuncture … but as usual prcrastinating because its expensive and i have this current irrational fear / lack of confidence in doing anything at the moment. I know its crap … but its there.

Gotta book an acupuncture appointment – it’ll be a small but hopefully positive step in the right direction.

Tuesday night: 5 hours

I caved and bought some sleeping pills. Going to try them tonight. I feel like I’m in an epic battle with my own insomnia at this point.
