Can’t sleep.
Notifications OFF
I don't even know what this post will achieve, nothing probably. So it's Christmas Day, 2.21am and I can't sleep. The gifts are all laid out for my children, the food is prepared in the fridge ready to cook and my heart is hurting in a way I never knew it could. I'm so angry at my husband for doing this to us, but I miss him so, so, much. All this pain he's caused us, and for what? I feel disgusted by him, yet at the same time, I'd do anything to have him here. I hate this, I hate it all.
Hi Ganeric mum,
I know exactly how you feel, this year I just did microwave meals for myself and kids, couldn't face it all and did what I could. If you are having trouble sleeping I suggest some of the basics, you know switch off divices about 30mins before bed inc tv. Read a book, keep a routine. Oddly do some cleaning right before bed it wears out your body. If it becomes more of a problem visit your gp. If you don't want gp meds then possibly get some over the counter calming tablets or meditate, do what ever helps you to relax. You do you sweetie and self care is important. It's difficult when you want everything to go back to the way things were but at the same time you know this will never happen. Feelings don't just go away. I know you are just concentrating on your children's happiness but yours is important too.
