Insomnia

05 June 2019

3am

I went to bed at 11pm on 04 June 2019 but somehow I won’t slip into sleep. It is 3am now but I am still wide awake. I don’t know what’s happening but I don’t want to try sleeping as of now. I will read a book to pass the time.

7pm

I went for work as usual. I dozed off heavily for an hour or so and only woke up when my boss woke me up. He scolded me for dozing off at work and asked not to repeat it. Throughout the day, I felt fatigued.

2am

I don’t know what to write, it’s second day in a row. I hope this problem ends tomorrow.

8pm

I didn’t doze off at work as I was very busy. My boss looked at my eyes and asked whether I have had enough sleep. I shook my head. He got surprised at my reply and asked me to get a good sleep tonight. The fatigue was more intense than it was yesterday.

3am

I slept well from 10pm to 1am and again I see the same thing happening. What exactly is wrong with me? That’s it! I am fed up. I am getting sleeping pills tomorrow.

8pm

I didn’t sleep at work but I wasn’t much busy either. I went to a doctor and he gave me the pills which would help me sleep. However he advised me not to use it more than once a week. I just had my dinner and now I am ingesting a sleeping pill.

8:05pm

I am waiting for the pill to show its effects.

8am

I just woke up and brushed my teeth. The pill worked in a fantastic way. I feel much rejuvenated. I hope I will have a good day today.

7pm

It was a busy day in the office but as in previous days, I didn’t feel fatigued. My work got completed way before time. I was home by 4pm.

2am

I thought this problem would get solved by the pill. Now I have to wait for another week. I don’t know what is yet to come.

8pm

I was again fatigued at work. I did doze off for 10 minutes after having lunch. Nobody found out that lacked sleep.

9pm

I just had a heavy dinner so that I fall asleep as soon as lie down on the bed. Let’s see what happens next.

4am

It was fine till 2am when I woke to go to the bathroom. After coming back, I wouldn’t fall asleep again. I fell this problem is going to be there with me for a while.

8pm

There wasn’t any fatigue at work; however dark circles were visible under my eyes. I am going to have a heavy dinner again and take a pill. I know that I am violating the doctor’s advice but I have to do it. I can’t stay awake like this anymore.

9pm

I woke up at 9am today; as a result I was late for work. I received an earful for the same. I came home late. I actually slept for 13 hours yesterday. I just can’t believe that I slept for such a long time. I am going to have a heavy dinner again, take a walk and then go to sleep.

12 June 2019

2am

I came out of sleep at 1am but didn’t go back since then. I don’t know how I am going to manage this in days coming up ahead. I actually think it is better to apply for a leave for a day or two. No I will stick with two days. I will just stay at home and sleep after taking a pill.

08:45pm

I came home late today. I had to impress my boss by working harder than usual so that I get a leave for 2 days. I got the leave now. Yes, I succeeded in getting a leave! As usual, I am going to have a heavy dinner and a pill.

13 June 2019

12pm

I just woke up and brushed my teeth. Wait a minute! New record! I slept for 15 hours in a day. That’s not something I would be proud of. I want to try something new. I will go for a jog in the evening. May be heavy physical exhaustion might help.

7pm

I jogged for around 3 hours. I am damn tired now. Let’s hope for a good night.

14 June 2019

7am

Finally, I had a good sleep. I am going to give this a trial of 1 week.

8pm

I have done jogging for around four hours today. I am just being extra cautious. Let’s see what happens tonight.

15 June 2019

6am

I had a good sleep again. I just hope that it works out well for the next five days. Ok, I need to get ready.

7:15pm

I have had a good day at work today. No fatigue, no dozing off at work today. Finally, I am back to normal. I think I can end the trial now. I learnt a lot in the past few days. I wasn’t physically active for the last couple of years. I resumed it now and so I will continue it. My eating habits also improved significantly. I used to eat unhealthy foods earlier. I have stopped them now. I get less irritated now when things don’t turn up on time. I actually started enjoying roaming in and around greenery. It is a bit far from where I live but that’s fine. I will see to it that I go there at least once a week. I want to plant a sampling so that when it grows to be a strong tree, it will catch somebody’s attention and make them enjoy the greenery as I am enjoying now. Wait a second! I didn’t use the pill since 3 days. That’s great as heaven.
