INSOMNIA


Most people that have a planned sleep schedule, follow it. Wake up at a scheduled time every morning, go to bed a specific time. But not everyone has the privilege of having that pleasure.

When I was in grade school, my parents would always make me go to bed at 8 o'clock. It was always a schedule. It was a schedule that I would try to not follow but would give in after finally falling asleep.

As a teenager, I would stay up and text. Watch TV, you know be a normal teenager. When my parents would tell me not too. I knew I had to get up at 7 to go to school, but I still did it. I never had a problem with going to sleep if I had to go to bed at a normal time. 

But not until recently,  I have become aware of insomnia. Sleeping was literally my get away land, but now it's become distant. Which has not been pleasant at all. 

Normal people, in which that don't suffer a abnormal sleeping schedule don't understand why you can't fall asleep. Usually there response is.. Go to the doctor, get help, take some pills.... just change your schedule. My most favorite is them accusing me of being on my computer and my generation is addicted and that is why I cannot fall asleep.
But no matter what you do, it's not how you change anything, you will not change how you sleep. 

It's a circle of death as I call it. 

People that have been in the "INSOMNIA" of death. Understand it. But those who have not, do not and never will until they have been affect or someone close does.


Read this article on Chronic Illness on further detail on how it can affect you with sleeping, even if you don't have a chronic illness you might relate to this--http://chroniccurve.tumblr.com/
