My Struggle with Sleep 1

in #insomnia7 years ago

I was quite young when i became insomniac. I believed it stemmed from my fear of bedwetting when all my mates had stopped..i was 8yrs old and i lived with my granma. She would wake me up with so much ceremony and noise..the embarassment did me in.So i stayed awake longer emptying my bladder at intervals,getting scared to close my eyes so i dont wet the mat.

This continued till i completed junior high. Though by then i lived with my mother.And had discovered books..my mother loved reading novels and i had enough to last me through the night. By and by; i started having migraines from lack of sleep. With blood dripping from my nose anyhow. Got eye glasses but that didnt help either.
When i got into senior high,i learnt the act of sleep pretend. I find a comfortable place to lie down then control my breathing..i get the quite lull of sleep without actually sleeping..
But it would get worse
