HALP.

It's 4:23 in the morning where I am and I can't sleep. I've tried, several times, and it's so far resulted in my tossing and turning and giving up so I move out to the couch so my long-suffering husband can get some sleep. Then I toss and turn there until I think I"m sleepy, then I go back to bed, rinse, repeat, etc.

I've tried warm milk, I've tried chamomile tea, I've taken Seroquel (which is a very sedating drug), listening to music...nada. Zip. Zilch.

What do you all do on nights like these? I had hoped to lull myself to sleep with the background of Law & Order (whatever variation), but sadly on Saturday night it's not that easy. Thoughts? Suggestions? I had a hallucination of walking into my local urgent care and begging them to knock me out...sigh.

I'm not very good at meditation, but maybe I should try to learn some more. Annoying TV (like infomercials) keeps me awake due to the pebble in my shoe idea, but the problem is that interesting TV keeps me awake because I want to know how it turns out. :)
