Insomnia Cures - My Story

Insomnia is one of those words that scare most people.
The word 'Insomnia' scares most people either because they do not know what it is, or do not know how to deal with it.
If you have Insomnia, you do not want to 'deal' with it, rather solve the mystery of missing sleep and cure the Insomnia that plagues us.
Some people only miss a few hours a night (I like to call these people the Lucky Ones), where others miss days at a time (I like to call these people Insomnia Zombies).
Whether you miss a few hours of precious sleep a night, or miss days at a time, Insomnia still is a serious problem that can and will change the way you live your life.
I myself am one of those unlucky zombies that do not sleep for days at end.
I am getting use to not sleeping the required eight hours so many people say every healthy person needs to have.
But I do not want my lack of sleep to be a way of life for me, I want a cure.
I am sure we all want a cure to whatever it is that bothers us.
As for Insomnia, I am very hopeful that help is out there.
Insomnia cures is a major thought on my tired brain.
I am constantly looking for new ways that might help me get back to my normal sleeping pattern.
It has been such a long time since I have gotten eight hours of sleep in one night that I tend to forget what that ever felt like.
Unless my memory is incorrect, I love getting at least eight hours of sleep in a night.
I remember waking up after a good night's sleep and feeling refreshed and ready to tackle anything that may come my way.
I, like you I am sure, do not want sleep and rest to be a mere memory, but would rather it be a reality today.
I can remember when I was a lot younger, around the time I started college, I might only get a few hours of sleep a night.
Between a full class load and working graveyard shifts at a 24 hour convenience store to help pay for my college tuition ( which by the way was ridiculously expensive, but that is another story for another time), I would have nights where I would not get a proper nights sleep.
At the time I thought missing a few hour here and there was an awful thing, now I tend to miss those days because they remind me of a time when I could put my tired head down on my vacant pillow and sleep! They were precious moments.
Sleeping should not be taken for granted.
I wish I could go back to the days of normality.
Go back to a time when I was able to rest and wake up feeling new again.
I sometimes wonder what it feels like to wake up with the sunshine in my face and the desire to take on the day.
With Insomnia, that desire has faded and I am left alone with very long days.
Amidst the long days of being forever tired, I still carry with me hope that there is a cure for Insomnia.
If I do not have sleep, at least I still have Hope.
Take these words with you on your journey for a cure, and best of luck through your dark days.
