Hello takingabreath

Sorry you're feeling this way. Has something happened to bring on the insomnia, or have you always had trouble sleeping?

Everything seems much harder when you're tired. Do you have anyone to help with the DCs so that you could maybe have an afternoon nap today?

I'm sure others will be along soon with more wisdom. In the mean time, be kind to yourself.

Sorry you are struggling I am not good with advice but sending a hug and and you are in my thoughts xx

It's really hard to cope on little sleep. Tell us more about how your insomnia works. Is it getting up to see to the kids then not being able to get back to sleep, or not being able to sleep in the first place, or what?
