I've had a hideously stressful week
Have slept for about a total of 6 hours over the last 3 nights
Would IBU to take a sleeping tablet about 5pm and just go to bed and try and get 13 hours of sleep?

Go have a something to eat and then a nice hot bath, Jammies on. Into bed. Cosy and full.

Crunchymum · 17/04/2020 15:07

As long as you aren't leaving 3 kids under 5 alone, then go for it!

Do it. No reason why not.

OhMargo · 17/04/2020 15:17

Look love, you do not need anyone's permission to self care.

Go for it and enjoy the slumber. You deserve it. Why not, is there something else at the back of your mind that tells you not to do this?

If not, tabs away and have a great sleep. Enjoy.

TokyoSushi · 17/04/2020 15:17

Do it. Enjoy!

Neeentay · 17/04/2020 15:34

Wish I could do it!

Good night Grin

vanillandhoney · 17/04/2020 15:36

Do it - and enjoy!

Holothane · 17/04/2020 15:38

Right tlc time you’ve no kids at the moment, bath, cosy jimmies, bed. I too suffer from sleeping troubles.

Chesterfuckingdrorrs · 17/04/2020 15:42

As long as you won't wake up at 3/4am go for it, that would make me feel cheated!!

Ps. Have an early dinner so you don't wake up starving.

limebedding · 17/04/2020 15:45

Don't take the sleeping tablet until after you get out of the bath. Enjoy a good rest.

SirTobyBelch · 17/04/2020 16:24

Why do you need a sleeping tablet? 8-9 hours without drugs would be as good as a longer period of zopiclone- or temazepam-induced sleep, as the drugs reduce the amount of time spent in REM.

MozzchopsThirty · 17/04/2020 16:27

Because I can't get to sleep or stay asleep
I've tried meditation, sleep stories, hypnotherapy

So I'm going in for the hard stuff tonight as it's my day off tomorrow and don't have to be up at 6am

Thank you all so much for not making feel like a lazy bitch Smile

Go ahead

I would kill for a z drug right now.

pilates · 17/04/2020 16:31

Yes I would. I can’t function very well with lack of sleep.
Hope you feel better.
