I've been struggling lately with my sleep. My GP prescribed venlafaxine for anxiety/panic attacks and it's working well for those but my sleep, although still of the required duration, has been much more restless and full of vivid dreams. Last night one of my dreams started out 'live action' but turned into anime halfway through which was pretty cool.
Today, despite my fitbit telling me I didn't sleep well, I feel ok. It's my mid-week rest day from work and I think I'm going to have a slow amble up the road for a chai latte and gluten-free pasty for lunch (don't tell anyone, but I haven't showered today yet as I need to wash my hair this evening...). I might do some reading in the sunshine and pick up a few groceries. I had been feeling like a cold was coming on and although there are still niggles, the symptoms are greatly reduced. It's beautiful and sunny out and I may even take some photos if the muse strikes (crappy ones on my iPhone 4, but I like them).
Hoping I might even manage a nap this afternoon. I struggle with naps at the best of times but especially when anxiety is a problem. I tend to lurch wide awake in a panic about a millisecond before dropping off to sleep. But today I feel like it might be a thing that happens. :) I was up a little too late last night playing Diablo 3.
