For a while now been waking up at about 4:30 - 5 am and just cant get back to sleep hence here I am posting at an ungodly hour of the morning lol.

Ive tried going bed early , going bed late but its like an inbuilt alarm clock im wide awake. I know as you get older you supposed need less sleep, but problems im having come about 3pm in afternoon im flagging a bit and having just started a work placement I dont want start flagging.

Mind the dawn chorus of wildlife outside in garden prob not helping my little feathered friends having their early morning chinwag :) and after their daily morsels from me.:lol:

I suffer like that and i'm only 34, maybe due to years of nightwork..?, im having an operation in december and i am really looking forward to being knocked out as it will be the most and deepest sleep i've had in yonks :)
 
Im up at 4-30 to start my day shifts which over the years ive when possible swapped my night shifts to stay on. After doing this for god knows how long i wake up at that time even when im off. If you cant go back to sleep it screws the day right up as i start to nod mid afternoon.People in the same position and insomniacs have my sympathy. maybe we should start a chat room
 
Try this when you wake up dont look at the clock.

Then you wont know what time it is then just drift it works for me sometimes
 
I am nearly always awake these days, only ever really get around 4-5hrs a night, reguralry last 24-30hrs without any sleep at all, that can get rather boring trying to fill all that time with something to do lol
 
I was born in East Lothian and at the age of three liked to sit in the trailer of my big brothers toy pedal tractor. However he though I was too heavy to pull so unhitched the trailer and tipped me in the pond. I was fished out the pond covered in pond beasties and pond weed - this is when my troubles began. Although I had a golly (bigger than me, which I loved dearly) i never had a teddy and I think this could have had a crucial impact on the........................................... :baby::baby::baby::baby:
