Every year this happens. I'm not anxious at school. I'm very experienced and love my job (most of it, mostly). My work load is ridiculous, as always, and like all teachers. The insomnia is about having too much to do and never getting it all done. I know that. But it doesn't help! It doesn't help to be awake for hours at night. I'm not doing the work and it makes me less able to do it productively enough the next day.
I have young children, teach full time, leave the house at 7am. I can't afford not to sleep!
Desperate for any tips. I fall asleep well, but wake in the night for hours and am always awake at 5am. This has crept into weekends now too
