Life is so intense

My kids are here so I’m putting on a happy face but I feel so intense inside. I’ve barely slept in the past week. I go from not being able to stop sleeping to getting almost no sleep. Two weeks til I see pdoc. Next week when the kids are at their dad’s place I am supposed to be going to the csu for 5 or so days just to decompress. I wish life was just easier for this week.

What does “csu” stand for? I’m not familiar with that term.

I also get super edgy when I don’t sleep.

If I had to pick two of the most important things for keeping myself sane,

I’d say its sleep and routine.

Without proper sleep, you really have no foundation for your day,

Its not a wonder you feel so weird.

Do you like the crisis stabilization unit?

Do you feel like you’ll be able to sleep there?

I am sleeping poorly

The csu is calming usually. I find I sleep better there. I think I worry less when I’m there and they help me through panic/anxiety.

Yeah if I don’t sleep I get pretty agitated.

It’s only a week. I know that can seem like forever, but the time will pass. We’ll remember you in our thoughts and in our prayers.

It IS important to feel rested in the morning.
