Day 22 I think. Last night was pretty crappy. I was feeling tired around 11:15pm and went to bed without much thought. I'm not sure why but my mind wouldn't calm down. I wasn't thinking about anything in particular but my mind just wouldn't settle down. I decided to get up and watch some TV around 12:15am, I also took a melatonin. I've never had a lot of success with it but I gave it a shot anyway. I started dozing off on the couch around 1:00ish. I thought that was a good time to head back to bed. In retrospect I should have just stayed on the couch. I tossed and turned for another couple of hours. Mind racing. I think I fell asleep around 4 and woke up to my alarm at 6:00am

One thing I did last night which isn't normal for me is I was playing Call Of Duty with my son last night. We packed it in just after 9 though and I thought it should be plenty of time to wind down but the best way I can explain how I felt last night was over stimulated.

Hopefully tonight is a better night. I'll try no video games before bed and see what happens.
