Anyone awake?

[MummaPI]

First day of period and can't sleep due to pounding heart although measured it and it's 75bpm. Feels like it's going to explode! Happening more and more now. I had a heart scan which showed minor stuff but nothing that would cause this. I lie here trying to sleep with this feeling and it's horrible

I'm awake. I'm just worrying about stuff that seems benign in daylight.

Oh dear, night time does make things worse doesn't it?

I never seem to get to sleep anymore, then about 5.30am i drop off and have to wake at 7.30 to get kid to school.

I’m awake. I had a work do tonight and had wine. Now my head is racing with work stuff and I’m soooo thirsty but can’t be arsed to get up to drink.
I’m pretty much done with meno now but have had too many sleepless nights because of it.
The Pzizz app has been brilliant. In text I’m going to try it now

Is that hormonal do you think? My sleep has definitely been affected. I hate the pounding heart thing though.

In fact , not in text.

I may be back .......,.!

Yes I've had 3 bottles of beer and I wonder it's that's the culprit even though it's a small amount

What's Pzizz

How old are you all out of interest? I'm 43

Pzizz is an app for your phone that tells you through going to sleep (or having a nap ). It’s based on NLP techniques and gets you into good sleep hygiene routines. I use it when I wake up as it helps to get back to sleep. Unless I come on mn 😆

I’m 53.

My guts are loudly gurgling now. I mean loudly !

I can hear them! 😝

I'm 46. I've got to be up at 630

I need a wee but cba

That's the thing isn't it, I have to be up at 7 but can't sleep so more stress to sleep

Given my previous episodes I find I'll drift off around 5 ish. Its crap.

I'm awake, 30 year old here with a three year old. Just split with husband. But I've always struggled with sleep. I usually find I sleep round about 5/6am.

Gosh that's tough more are you ok?

@donajimena I'm surviving but barely. I've had to take a few days off work as DS has become a bit more of a handful but just to also recharge my batteries. I think I'm slowly getting used to an almost empty bed.

Bless you. I promise you that you will soon relish having it to yourself. Buy yourself some new bedding if funds allow. Something your stbx won't have seen. Its a huge psychological boost.

I know it is crap after break up. Look on bright side though, you get all wardrobe and chest of drawers to yourself.

Im awake thanks to muscle twitches in my legs and my two Degus, George n Michael have been fighting none stop! X

HI! I'm 44 and this is happening more and more. I wake up at about 3ish and then can't get back to sleep, my head is buzzing. I'm knackered.

I'm awake, due to chronic pain-being on high dose steroids doesn't help either as they keep me awake ...
I was on HRT until had to stop it this spring as the steroids I'm on for my autoimmune illness increased my BP and GP not happy to represcribe it ...hot flushes came back with avengeance unfortunately
Had been on HRT for 10 yrs following hysterectomy aged 44 due to fibroids and endometriosis...HRT was brilliant for me , so gutted I can't take it anymore ( was on tiny dose, but it kept those blasted hot flushes at Bay)....I'm trying a herbal remedy which does seem to give some relief from the symptoms...Viridian female complex tablets
The office at work is unbearably hot at the moment so I'm ending up sitting with window open and fan on...did some Christmas shopping at weekend and it was awful as I was a sweaty mess...thank god for online shopping!

48 here. Don’t seem to be able to sleep at all these days. My mind is constantly on the go. My legs want to move all the time. I’m always hot. I sleep with the windows open and rarely put the heating on. I would love a full nights sleep.

I've given up trying now. I'm going to stay up. mummapi have you gone to sleep? Yeah cheers for bailing on me
