It's 1:30 am and here I am awake again staring at the ceiling

Yes that is correct it is actually 1:38 am and still wide awake. Tossing and turning, staring out into the dark, closing my eyes and counting, deep breathing, anything but still not sleep. This happens alot and I am so frustrated and of course so tired the next day. I will go 2 - 3 weeks at a time like this and then maybe 2 weeks (if I am lucky) with good sleep. Nothing seems to help. Like always I think that I have found something to help me sleep but then again it doesn't last. I know this happens to alot of women, I hear it all the time. I wish I could function with no sleep but I can't and I am simply not at my best. I hate it, I loathe it but what do I do. I will go back to bed and will remain awake for another couple of hours. This time I thought I would get up and blog about it. Maybe this will make me more tired and then I can sleep, but I know better. I have tried reading, that usually puts me to sleep but then usually within 15 minutes or so I am awake again. I know this is probably boring to someone who has no trouble sleeping and can't understand what I am going through. But on the other hand I know there are so many more like me going through the same thing. Anyway I guess I will say "goodnight" and go back to bed and hope and pray that I can go to sleep at least sometime before the alarm goes off in the morning.
