Last night I had a hard time sleeping. I fell asleep okay, but then I woke up about an hour later and for the life of me, could not get back to sleep. And I don't know about you, but when that happens to me, I fall into thinking about all kinds of horrible things. First I start with the list of things I need to do the next day. Then I keep checking the clock to figure out how much sleep I'll actually get if I immediately fall asleep. And then I really go down the rabbit hole of thinking of embarrassing things I did when I was younger and from there, everything I've ever done wrong in my life. ARGH! It's crazy. Then I read somewhere that to help with this you're supposed to set aside time during the day to "worry." Yep, "worry time." Who has time for that?!?!!? Now I'll be up worrying that I didn't have time to worry. So am I alone in this? Does it happen to you when you can't sleep. And what do you do to help you fall asleep? Help me out if you can on the TRY Facebook page.
