Sleep

Hi. How much do you sleep? I'm not sure if it's a part of the spectrum but my sleeping is poor. I only manage a few hours a night.

At bed despite feeling tired and drained I can't get off to sleep. And when I do I wake up constantly all through the night.

By the morning I'm as tired as I was when I went to bed.

  • I didn’t know when my sleep pattern changed. Maybe 7 years ago? Since then I go through periods of insomnia.  Currently, I sleep maybe 3 hours, wake for an hour or so, then another 2 hours sleep. For the night I am continually tossing and turning. It’s driving me mad. 
    Previous to this, I was sleeping about 3 hours a night, I’d be happy for 5 hours of unbroken sleep, even though I personally need at least 8 to function normally.
