Me.....Because my brain won't switch off and has started to overthink every single thing I have ever done and said since the day I was born Sad

Anxiety here too.

Twiggywinkle13 · 08/06/2020 01:17

Ahhhh my sleep pattern seems to be all to pot. I don’t sleep well anyway but since lockdown I’ve been even worse, no idea why.

NewtonPulsifer · 08/06/2020 01:17

Anxiety mainly but decided to try to do something useful so grabbed an online grocery delivery for tomorrow.

DipseeDaisey · 08/06/2020 01:18

It's horrible isn't it, not sleeping.
If anyone has any tips, please share

Insane period pain which I should really see a doctor about but I have too much angst about corona, so I’m suffering in silence for now!

Anxiety here too, so many thoughts and questions, what if's and shoulda, coulda woulda's

isittheholidaysyet · 08/06/2020 01:23

Because I'm on lockdown sleeping hours. I'll settle about 2am wake about 10.30am!

It's been years since I have not felt tired throughout the day. I've always said I'm not a morning person. It seems its true. I only need 8 ish hours sleep, but they have to finish after 10am!

I have 6 chicken eggs incubating in my bedroom and they have started to pip (first bit of external hatching) always exciting I know it takes hour and hours but I keep on getting up to take a peek and they have started cheeping now and again.

Post COVID tachycardia

Porcupineinwaiting · 08/06/2020 01:24

MsMeNz what a lovely reason to be awake Smile

My 17 year old dd woke me up to tell on her 12 year old dB is talking to his mate online. She could've just given him a threat of waking me up, that would've been enough to shut him up

aw, hatching.

eyesbiggerthanstomach · 08/06/2020 01:25

Had a nap, anxiety and also really hungry but can't be bothered to go downstairs to eat anything. Craving junk but I only have crappy healthy food in anyway.

AgeLikeWine · 08/06/2020 01:25

I’m an owl, and I’m furloughed so this is mid-evening to me. My alarm is set for 8, but I won’t get up until 9-30 at the earliest.

DP went to bed at 9-15, while it was still daylight. He will get up at 5. Silly man.

CrowdedHouseinQuarantine · 08/06/2020 01:25

thank you @DipseeDaisey

CazM2012 · 08/06/2020 01:25

I can’t switch off, haven't been able to sleep since lockdown began Sad

movinggoalposts · 08/06/2020 01:25

I have to get a child to sleep so I can go to sleep... it seems to get later and later!
