Henchman's Story

First night with significant sleep issues since March. Last night I only got like 4.5 hours, went to sleep fine but just woke up and couldn’t get more. Tonight I’m exhausted, but just can’t sleep. Don’t feel extremely panicked or anything like I have felt it past instances where this occurred. I just really, really wish I could get some sleep. Looking back, based on previous occurrences, if it just a regular crash I should finally get some sleep in a few hours. Hope that’s the case. Just want to record keep for the next time this happens.

Hi Leesy - would you be able to share the list you created?

Just a note from above, I would also be interested in that list.

End of month update, 63 months post-fin:

I appear to be on a gradual upswing again, this month was better than the last with only some small road bumps. Mentally I’m currently in a very good place. My libido continues to be pretty low, after the other month when it was very high, but I have started to have spikes here and there again. I have a feeling this is going to improve steadily over the next month or two. More random things have continue to click into place. Things that were normal before that I’d forgotten about. I feel random waves of aggression/ambition returning. My sleep is a still not normal but I would say it is currently good. I always wake up after around 5-6 hours and then can go back to sleep again for 1-3 hours. I noticed that now for the past few months that I can always take naps, daily if I want. This is something I haven’t really been able to do. This ability would return in spurts, but now it seems that it’s here to stay. Definite progress.

Overall a really good month, I still haven’t hit the 4 month streak without a significant crash but I really feel like it’s going to happen now over the next 12 months or so.

Wishing everyone the best.
