Anyone still awake?

If you're awake what's keeping you up?

I'm absolutely roasting, not remotely tired, and thinking I'm going to do a power clean and some life admin.

I had my morning coffee at 11 last night because I’m an insomniac.

Worked too late on my laptop and now I'm exhausted but AWAKE! up in 5 hours so I'm playing the 'if I fall asleep now I'll get... hours sleep' game!

Morning both,
I’m awake.

Dislocated my elbow a couple of weeks ago and can’t sleep. I’m also hot, not had a coffee though - yet!

Oh god I hate that ‘how much time have I got to sleep’. Game. 😬

Playing that game too .worked too late and no time to relax..

Just picked daughter up from train station after a concert now waiting for the bathroom, was tired but now have second wind, must go to sleep, work in morning. Hope we are all asleep soon

Meadowfinch · 13/06/2025 01:27

I've got a trapped nerve which is only tolerable lying down. I've spent most of today asleep so now I'm awake and taking more paracetamol.

Hopefully it will have settled down by tomorrow. 🙁

The Air India plane crash - I’m ex BA and my DD is cabin crew for Virgin.
Air India are a respected air carrier and it’s just so sad and so horrifying.

Floranan · 13/06/2025 01:29

I was asleep but just woke up with cramp, I seem to get it most nights at the moment. It’s hot tonight too, I hate it being hot at night

I had emergency surgery yesterday lunchtime & am in a very quiet hospital ward but still struggling to sleep because it hurts & it’s hot! Just had morphine which hopefully will help me get back to sleep once they reduce the pain.

it’s not been a great week!!

Just got into bed having sorted dd15s leavers stuff for tmrw having given up and sent her to bed at 12 as she has an exam in the morning...my husband is now snoring like a drain and I have to be in work for 815..

floranectarine · 13/06/2025 01:38

I’m on call overnight so I had a nap earlier and now I can’t get back to sleep.

I had a job interview today and it went really well, the person said they would call me tomorrow and offer me the job but I’m doubting whether it’s the right move for me.

Newnamesameme · 13/06/2025 01:42

I'm not feeling well amd slept until half two today now I'm overtired. Also feeling anxious and dread night time lately as it's so hard for me to sleep. It's a vicious cycle

Jollyjollyjollygoodie · 13/06/2025 01:44

I’m too bloody hot!

BodysBroken · 13/06/2025 01:53

I've got a really heavy cold and slept half the day and now I'm wide awake.

highlandcoo · 13/06/2025 02:04

I’ve been working on a campaign to get education about the dangers of methanol poisoning into schools and colleges.
Our online petition has reached 10,000 signatures which means the government is required to respond.
We’re focusing on exactly how we produce the materials for students. There’s a lot to think about.
it’s time I went to sleep though!

Gymnopedie · 13/06/2025 02:10

Because I'm the ultimate night owl.

Amiable · 13/06/2025 02:35

I’ve just done a Tesco online shop!

Hazeltwig · 13/06/2025 02:38

I've been playing Baldur's Gate online with a friend.

I overdid the weights 2 days ago and my right shoulder is agony.

FutureFeelsBleak · 13/06/2025 02:48

I'm going through redundancy at work, and am horribly stressed, leading to insomnia.

I've just finished my first coffee of the day.

GreatTheCat · 13/06/2025 03:04

Can't sleep, no reason, just can't bloody sleep. Good news is I'm retired (early, due to becoming ill).

whattodoforthebest2 · 13/06/2025 03:17

Someone in the room next to mine has a fan on and the droning noise is driving me nuts. I’ll never get back to sleep now, so may as well get myself a cup of coffee.

But I’m also thinking about the plane crash in |ndia. I flew back from India in September in a Dreamliner - it’s a fantastic plane and I’d been worried about a long haul flight (in my 60’s). It was great and I’m planning other long haul trips now, but what an awful thing to happen. All those families waiting for the flight to arrive…

Cough, cough, cough, cough…in my third week of this horrendous Covid like virus. Debating if I need to contact gp in morning but not sure what they can do as it’s a dry cough and exhausting.

NellyBellyDancer · 13/06/2025 03:52

Wide awake here… my DDog passed away on Sunday and I can’t sleep (or eat properly) from the grief.
My eyes have dark circles round them from crying and insomnia.
Not in a good place at the moment .
