W,
I occasionally go to bed without thinking of sleep but never to rest and only when I am not sleepy.

Bed is a scary place.
Some nights I stay for 5 mins to talk w/ hubby.
I did that a few mins ago. I am out of bed for now.

On days I have to work, I work myself into chaos and anxiety about being able to perform at work in a few hours so I force myself into bed, close my eyes, and pray for rest and peace.

I crashed for 1.5 hrs on the sofa around 11:30 pm. I expect to be up for a while longer -- maybe wait until day light.
