Sleepless in October

I've tossed back a couple of Tylenol PM's and am hoping for some sleep tonight. I'm starting to think it's hormones that are kicking my sleeping patterns around. I'm just not sure...but the changes are driving me a little batty! I'm the kind of girl who could put her head down and be asleep in 5 minutes. It drove my husband crazy that I could fall asleep so fast and soundly. I never wake up in the middle of the night, once I'm out, I'm out....yeah. I wish for those days again.

I think these sleep disturbances are going on 3 months now. I haven't changed any regular patterns in my life, not doing anything new. Not drinking more or less caffiene and not changing exercise habits. Stress levels are about the same...so how is it possible the last three months of my life I've lost the ability to fall asleep. Sounds like such a simple thing, lay down, sleep. It was such a simple thing....a little after midnight. I knew I should have taken them earlier....I thought maybe, just maybe I'd see some sleep tonight, so I didn't take anything...now I'm regretting it. These won't kick in for easily 60-90 minutes, so I guess you have my company for a little longer. Thanks for hanging with me...
