Insomnia feels like being trapped in a fog between sleep and wakefulness
As someone who has struggled with insomnia for years while trying to maintain a healthy lifestyle, I've come to realize it's so much more than just being unable to fall asleep. It's like being stuck in a strange limbo state - my body is exhausted but my mind feels wired and restless.
During those long sleepless nights, I'll lie there feeling utterly drained yet unable to drift off. My thoughts race in circles as I toss and turn. The world takes on an almost dreamlike quality in those quiet early morning hours. Sometimes I'll have these profound realizations that seem brilliant at 3 AM but make no sense in the light of day.
The effects of insomnia seep into my days too, leaving me in a mental fog. No amount of herbal tea or meditation seems to fully shake that heavy, tired feeling. It impacts my mood, my focus at work, my ability to stick to my wellness routines.
I'm curious how others experience their insomnia. Does it feel like more than just sleeplessness to you? Like you're trapped in some in-between state? I'd love to hear your thoughts and any natural remedies you've found helpful. Wishing you all restful nights ahead.
