Lately, I’ve been overwhelmed and hopelessly anxious. So much so, that I’ve come to depend heavily on sleeping pills. I take them every night. Not a wise choice, I know.
The last few days, I’ve opted to fall asleep naturally. I put away all distractions, i.e, no lights, television, computer, cellphone. Still, I lie awake for hours, tossing and turning with the day’s events replaying in my head.
I’ve employed all the tried and true sleep inducing methods in my repertoire like drinking warm milk, counting sheep, picturing a scenic landscape…praying. Nothing.
If you have any techniques that have worked for you in the past, I’d really like to hear about them, weigh in.
