YANBU.

I've been tossing and turning for a while and now up with an IBS bout, again. Feel like this is most nights at the minute. Started on some new medication two days ago which is disrupting my sleep and making my throat dry too.

Hope your pain subsides soon OP Thanks

Aquamarine1029 · 07/01/2019 03:30

Have you seen a dentist? You need to sort out your tooth!

crosser62 · 07/01/2019 03:30

Hello!
What pain relief do you have?

Happygolucky009 · 07/01/2019 03:39

BartonHollow · 07/01/2019 03:41

I'm awake OP I'm watching the Golden Globes in the UK and I kept saying this stream is crap I'm going to bed and then I found a good one and here I am at 4am Blush

LearningMySelfWorth · 07/01/2019 03:43

Sort of, took my sleeping tablets ages ago now exhausted but can’t sleep because I’ve moved back into my uni house and my asthma has flared up because I’ve changed my bed. Dosed to the eyeballs with inhalers and antihistamines and still can’t sleep because I can’t breath. Need to get some sleep so I can do some final cramming for an exam I have tomorrow afternoon, hoping to doze for a bit between now and seven where I’ll get up have a coffee, eat a bit something and then maybe doze some more if I’m really tired till like nine then up again for cramming. Hopefully I won’t be that tired and will be able to cope on nervous energy alone that’ll push me into being able to revise some more:

Ethel36 · 07/01/2019 03:45

Hello..I'm up too! Little one climbed into bed and I woke up squished and too hot! I also woken up with a headache. I'm struggling to sleep again.Hope your toothache settles. Are you going to the dentist?

Justagirlwholovesaboy · 07/01/2019 03:45

Awake and no good reason like the rest of you, just feeling sad and can’t sleep

MrsJDornan · 07/01/2019 03:47

Awake here too, the baby is sleeping, typical Grin have you taken anything for your tooth?

Passmeagin · 07/01/2019 03:47

Sympathies. I'm up to. Toothache is the worst op. Really feel for you

TwittleBee · 07/01/2019 03:52

I'm up too, been really ill past few days, not sure what with (below the hips is in agony and feels like it's all trapped in ice and I have stiff neck and temp). Anyway, as if that wasn't making it hard enough to sleep, DS has been screaming past 2 hours and I can't do much to help him. DH is in hospital with what was suspected meningitis but they've ruled that out but as he's still really ill he's being kept in.

water oh toothache is horrid! Hope you get it sorted?

Bloomin IBS, hope it eases OrcinusOrca

Any surprises this year? BartonHollow

Eminybob · 07/01/2019 03:53

Feeding the baby here. Trying to really get him tanked up so he’ll last until morning. I really need some more sleep before the dreaded school run in the morning Sad

Hope you feel better soon op

ShePersisted · 07/01/2019 03:54

Up and angry. My three year old claims to be very hungry, so we've now come downstairs; however, instead of eating her rice cake she's just wanting to snuggle. Considering she was in my bed and not letting me sleep anyways, I'm not sure why I couldn't remain horizontal, at least. Wake up alarm in 3 hours and no prospect of my getting back to sleep for now. Of course DH is sound asleep upstairs.

WhirlieGigg · 07/01/2019 03:56

Baby kept me awake for hours, then just as he dozed off I needed a wee, but couldn’t leave him in the double bed unsupervised! Sad

DrCristinaYang · 07/01/2019 04:01

I've been awake since 12pm yesterday afternoon and I'm still wide awake now. I'm in such a bad sleep rhythm and it's getting worse every night :(

Hubbleisback · 07/01/2019 04:25

Awake here too and exhausted!! Sad too [Justagirl]
Who has won a Golden Globe?

sparkli · 07/01/2019 04:27

I'm up, too. Post stroke neurological pain flare up. Feeling miserable as no medication helps. Trying to distract myself with crochet and old episodes of Silent Witness. It's not working.

Flowers for everyone awake and desperate for some sleep.

Nacreous · 07/01/2019 04:38

I'm up too. Bad family shit going on, and can't get my heart rate under 100 even with meditation, so have given up for now.

Brew for all who need it.

hipposarerad · 07/01/2019 04:45

Hello. I'm in A&E, was brought in with upper abdominal pain about 10x worse than labour contractions. Made a proper show of myself wailing and writhing round in agony.

Got given some morphine and feel better. Still waiting to be seen by the doctor, who will probably laugh at me for wasting NHS resources for a bit of indigestion.

Damn you, Stilton.

BartonHollow · 07/01/2019 04:48

A lot of surprises I thought

A LOT of Brits

Olivia Colman
Richard Madden
Ben Whishaw

And both Rami Malek and Bohemian Rhapsody surprisingly beat A Star Is Born

Sandra oh got one for Killing Eve too

LearningMySelfWorth · 07/01/2019 08:47

Managed to fall asleep at my desk at 7, just after turning off my alarms. Apparently they're a signal to fall asleep. Woke up now with my chest sore and tight, like a band is being tightened around it which isn't a great sign and my throat burning and raw from the coughing. More inhalers and antihistamines and hoping for the best. Exam is at 2 so I need to bash through the extra revision, but if my chest continues to get worse I'll be in A+E at some point today, which sucks as it's a housemates birthday and were supposed to be getting fish and chips, watching a film and playing board games like he's requested.

Now time for the first coffee of the day and wondering if it's acceptable to reheat a baked potato with herby garlic cheese and add some ham and coleslaw and eat it it for breakfast.

ILoveDaveGrohl · 07/01/2019 08:53

@LearningMySelfWorth absolutely is acceptable! I'm having left over take away for breakfast Grin

LearningMySelfWorth · 07/01/2019 09:09

@ILoveDaveGrohl, left over takeaway is the breakfast of champions Grin alongside left over lasagne or spaghetti bolognese.

waterplease · 08/01/2019 01:24

Hi everyone, sorry for not replying last night- would you believe I fell asleep! Ended up brushing my teeth again to help with the pain and thankfully it feels a lot better today.

Not great tonight, had a long cry as feeling depressed and suicidal. Boyfriend ignored me for a while then came in to yell at me because I'd eaten his ice cream without asking. We talked, he then said that work was more of a priority than me as the work was there first.

I just want to fucking end it.

Don't even think about that. He's being unreasonable. You don't want to die.

I have persistent chronic insomnia. I'm so tired. On top of that, since mid November I've had repeated bouts of severe diarhoea, with or without nausea. Can't be a bug, no one else is catching it and I'm not going near anyone who is ill. I'm not out of the flat much. It's making me so sad.
