sleeping

I love taking a nap, because I can skip time and rest. It’s so comfortable under the blanket, so warm and cozy.

Could also be a depression thing.

I know it’s random but I wanted to share this with you.

Hello,
Although I'm quite new in the group, I'm really busy helping where I can or at least hoping to.
Since a few months I am really awake in the evenings, preventing me from sleeping when I should be.
I wake up as usual and I don't sleep during daytime, so I'm sure to be tired in the evening. But than I really get 'alert'. I think it's a drug side effect. In my family many get an opposite reaction on drugs which should make you tired and drowsy.
I know I can't take anything with codeine after 4 PM or I'll be awake all night. Even hardly get affected by valium. Now I have to take morphine to cope with the pain. I think it's having the same result: wake me up. I take 2 extended-release pills a day and an extra instant form when even the pills are not enough.
Any suggestions how to teach my body to sleep at 10:30 PM instead of 2:30 AM?
Especially when I start studying again in February, I'll definitely need my hours of sleep. So I still have time to get this fixed.

It's almost 3am here in the #UK and I am no closer to #sleeping tonight... Is anyone else up? #mighty How do you keep yourself busy when you just can't sleep? #Fibromyalgia #ChronicPain #Pain #ChronicFatigue #Anxiety #Depression #MentalHealth #Conversation

I often struggle with trying to sleep in a quiet space. I’ll need to turn on a show/podcast to have something louder than the audible blood pumping in my head. Does this happen to anyone else? #sleeping #Fibromyalgia

I live with my sister and my kids and I sleep a lot. I get made to feel horrible for sleeping and get treated like a lazy loser and a burden by all of them. I’ve come very far since last year when I was in the hospital. No one looks at the good things, only the fact that I sleep too much. It makes me feel horrible and not want to live anymore because it is something I just cannot stop doing. I have no money, no friends and no life. My kids look down on me because I have a mental illness and openly express how I embarrass them. They tray me like shit because they see my sister do it. I don’t know how to change any of this. I’m lost and feel like things will never change.

I’m going to go right out and lay my diagnoses down for background: #bipolar- Mixed, #Anxiety , #BorderlinePersonalityDisorder , #ADHD , #Fibromyalgia , #PTSD , #BingeEatingDisorder and lastly I’m a recovering #alcoholic , #SOBER for about three years now.

My question is:
Has anyone become so #overwhelmed to the point of, what I call “passing out” but it’s simply getting very #Drowsy to the point of falling asleep... at any time of the day but then Also have #Insomnia to the point where you’re not #sleeping for days in a row?

Is this #Insomnia AND #Narcolepsy ? Is it possible to have both as #symptoms of my dx’s? Or does anyone think it’s just a #traumaresponse with the insomnia I already have? I’m starting to fall asleep too much now at the wrong times. My clock is out of whack and I’m driving my husband up the walls! Advice?!
