Worst ... Sleep ... EVAR!!
Nov. 18th, 2009 06:33 amLast night I got a total of 3 hours of sleep. I kept having horribly anxious nightmares, and waking up with anxiety. In addition I kept waking up in a cold sweat. It was the worst sleep I have had in a couple of years.
I figure it has to do partially with the time of year. For some reason this time of year I sleep like crap. I am not sure if its some sort of seasonal disorder, the holidays, or something from my childhood that makes me anxious from after Halloween through the end of the year.
The other reason dawned on me this morning. Yesterday was the first day I haven't taken any narcotics for my ankle. The first week and a half to two weeks was a Percocet dream. I remember bits of it, but only bits. Since then I downgraded to Vics and it has lessened, I have been down to one or two a day. Yesterday was my first day without any. I wonder if that is part of it.
I have a 4 hour class, then 4 hours of work. Tomorrow is another shorter day, since its shorter I am considering taking the whole day off. Then I have a quarterly office meeting/Xmas party on Friday. I am hoping by next week I am back to normal.
