Sleep

The last couple of years have seen my long standing insomnia reach, at times, epic levels.

I think some people believe that I am lazy because I often sleep later than most but when that happens, it’s because my brain has kept me wide awake, churning with ideas, questions, situations that remain unresolved or spectacular comebacks for things that happened years ago!

Three times this week it’s happened and all because of anxiety about things I was going to be doing the next day - overthinking, worrying about preparation etc. Years of never being good enough in a different setting have left scars that still cause discomfort.
