How many hours of sleep do you get?
« on: October 25, 2016, 04:54:15 am »
My sleeping is not so great. I get a few hours of sleep; And since I have
 chronic pain, fatigue goes right along with it.

I miss my younger years when i could pop out of bed already energized and
get my day started and pretty much was energized all day. I always got a good
Night sleep in my younger years. Less to worry about and less responsibilities at that
Time.

Sorry to know about cronic pain you have. I've had an allergy maybe to my cat not sure.Had a stuffed up nose so couldn't sleep . I went to the doc and got steroids that kept me awake for 2 nights. So last night got about 6 hours and none the night before. Not sure if i want to get an allergy test cost alot. Then again i have a cat who i cant pet unless i wash my hands after and keep out of my bedroom all the time.Depressed about it.

I am also sorry to hear about your chronic pain and fatigue. I sleep an average of five and a half hours a night from Monday through Saturday. On Sunday I allow myself the luxury of seven hours of sleep. I have had gout in my foot for the last five days and woke up a few times but the pain and swelling seem to be dissipating. I work two full time jobs and one part time job so sleep is a true blessing. I had a four hour break from one of my jobs on Sunday and hit the gym, sauna and hot tub for three hours which really helped clear out my mind. I try to catch a ten minute cat nap between projects everyday and am generally totally energized after doing so. I am lucky that my second job is out of the house-makes the ten minute nap so much less visible.

Between 5-8 hours. It depends on a few factors for me. Pain is one, so I can relate there. The major one, I have two 6 year old male cats (brothers), and they sometimes terrorize each other in the early hours of the morning! (Nothing like breaking up a cat fight at 3 AM with them screaming at each other like they are both dying! That was how it started with me getting up!!) I have gotten into the habit of getting up to ensure they DON'T fight for long like that. They have gotten better, but there are still times when the fighting is pretty bad. I also get up if my dad needs me since I am his care giver.

Depends on the day and what I have to get done in the morning before work. If I don't have a run or exercise class before work I get 8-9 hours. If I do, it is 6-7 hours. Weekends, also depends if I have something early in the morning.

If I'm lucky, I get 4 hours. I sleep from 8-11 p.m., then awake until 6 a.m. the next morning, then sleep until 7:30 a.m. Just when I try to fall asleep, my feet start twitching back and forth as if they're telling me not to go to sleep. This only started after my 2012 surgery. At first, it was fine because I wasn't sleeping at all and I need to exercise the feet to keep the muscles working so I wouldn't get foot drop. But geez, feet, you guys are fine now, let me sleep! LOL

I guess I should try to find a 3rd shift job. :)

I've been having trouble sleeping lately, so probably not enough!

Google JediJohnnie and May the Force be with you!
