Sleep!

I slept for 10 HOURS last night – unmedicated! I crashed when I got home after being out of town for the day for both psychiatry and psychology appointments. I fell asleep almost immediately once my head touched the pillow. That itself is practically unheard of for me. Sleep does not come easily.

I didn’t hear David come home this morning, didn’t feel the dogs leave the bed when he did, and didn’t wake when the 3 of them came back to bed. I don’t like that AT ALL. But I can’t let myself focus on that because it will take me to a very dark place. I’m trying to befriend sleep, not create more ammunition against it.

I woke shortly after 11am, with David and the dogs asleep next to me, because my blood sugars had dropped and the alarm from the continuous glucose monitor in my arm was going off. I couldn’t believe it.
