The story

ok so I think my sleeping problems might be getting worse

I've always, and I mean ALWAYS had trouble falling asleep at night.

But now, that problem has multiplied tenfold, and now I'm finding it hard to stay asleep if I manage to fall asleep, and then once I'm up, I'm up, there's no hope of going back to sleep.

Normally I'd ignore it and think it was normal, because trouble with sleep just is for me.

But it used to be that I'd go to bed at, like, 8:30 PM (EST) and fall asleep at like half past 10 PM (EST), but now it's I go to bed at 8:30, fall asleep at, like 1:00, wake back up at like 2:30 and am awake for the rest of the night.

Literally I can hardly focus as I'm typing this, autocorrect has been my best friend lol

but Im worried how it'll affect me in school, because I've never lost this much sleep over the span of three days.

its also affecting me getting to school in the morning, I've been more at risk of missing the bus lately because I just cant get out of bed. I try with my outfits in the morning, even when I'm tired, but tody I'm so freaking tired my outfit it a hoodie and leggings, and the leggings have a hole in the leg.

and on top of all this, I didn't see my best friend this morning and now i'm worried.

I completely understand your frustration; sleep troubles can be a massive nuisance! It sounds utterly exhausting to go through what you’re experiencing. The escalating nature of your sleep issues is genuinely concerning, especially with their impact on your focus and school routine 😔; Have you considered talking to someone about it? Seeking advice could help you regain control over the situation!!! I sincerely hope you find relief soon and manage to catch some much-needed rest. Stay strong and take care!!!

ugh, sleep issues are the worst 😩; totally feel for you on this. it's like your brain just refuses to cooperate, right? once I had a week where I barely caught any Z's, and it seriously messed with my whole schedule. the struggle of missing the bus? been there, done that. gotta say, when I couldn’t focus, my grades dropped and it hit me hard. maybe try a quick power nap after school if you can—that saved me a couple of times. hang in there, and hope you catch some solid shut-eye soon!

hey, I get how you're feeling, but maybe it's not as bad as it seems. everyone hits rough patches with sleep sometimes. there's an old saying, "this too shall pass," and I really believe in it; I once went through something similar, and although it sucked at the time, things eventually got better. maybe it's all about finding the right rhythm. ever tried zoning out to some chill music before bed? that helped me a lot. don't worry too much, you'll get back on track soon enough! hope you catch more Z's ASAP!
