Can't sleep, any suggestions?
For some reason I thought that things would be easier this year than last but as another Christmas without Keara appeoaches it feels even worse than it did last year. I miss her so much and feel so empty inside. I either can't sleep ore wake up at some ungodly hour and can't get back to sleep. The less I sleep the worse I feel. Any suggestions? This feels like living in a neverending nightmare.I feel so lonely. I do live alone with two dogs a cat and a bird but it isn't enough to fill the void. My other kids live out of state and out of the country. I am on disability and work part time and just lost one of my part time jobsso the endless worry about finances continues. I go to counseling every week and it helps some but not enough. I want to run away but where to? And Keara's children live close by so I feel an obligation to be close to them. I don't know what the solution is, I guess just time . This is so exhausting though and it's hard to make myself keep going. I feel like I've lost my direction and purpose in life. What is this all about anyway? I have so many questions but no answers.I don't hardly recognize the person I have become. I wish I could still believe in God but my faith has been shattered and I don't know what I believe anymore. I guess you can tell I am having a really hard time. I would appreciate any words of wisdom or support. I feel like I'm drowning!! |

Re: Can't sleep, any suggestions?
I can't sleep either, I went to my dr. finally because I lost so much weight and I can't sleep and I was having a hard time with my job being late because I couldn't get out of bed, etc. I asked for a mild sleep aid. It has helped, as long as I take it early and go to bed within the hour. I finally sleep, some days I still have the tossy, turny, nights that I can't stop thinking about my son, every night I cry myself to sleep talking to him and wish he was here. But I knew I had to get smething to help me sleep, sleep deprevation is the worst in the world. Stay strong, all moms here will help. I know it helps me and I'm still a mess, but I'm getting thru each day and that's a miracle in itself. |

Re: Can't sleep, any suggestions?
I also have a hard time sleeping. I have not slept thru a whole night in six months without waking up three or four times a night. Sometimes I can't get to sleep until 3:00, 4:00 in the morning. I figure this is how it is going to be the rest of my life. I miss my son so much that I don't think I am ever going to get back to the way I used to be. I am so sorry that I don't have any suggestions for you. It just really sucks that we have to be in this situation. My heart and prayers go out to you. God Bless You. |
