do you know what is overwhelming you? is it a bunch of things catching up with you? can you stay home from work? Maybe you should stay home from work....i think we go through periods where we have to catch up with ourselves and it is very painful and frightening while we are lagging...

Bobby,
You are such a dear. I can work it out and stay home. And tell the anxieties to take a break. I'll make a phone call or two and make apologies. Now maybe I can go to bed too. Then I can sleep, go for a walk, and try to let go of anxiety. M. |

I like this plan. But Mari, I want you to also work on coming up with a plan for going to sleep at least some part of the night. I don't care if you take off a week or two. But still work on finding a way to sleep in a pattern also. Now if going to sleep say at 3am and getting up at 10am is your pattern. Then arrange your schedule for that. Donna |

How about taking a couple of days off and traveling to a place you'd like to visit - as long as you can do that without having to come back to a mountain of work piled up?
Distance from a routine may be good for a perspective on how to reschedule your hours according to your metabolic rhythm.

Dear Donna,
About three or four days a week I sleep from 6:00 am to 9:15 am. It is awful. I am not nice to people when I am sleep deprived. And I am not thinking or speaking clearly. Today I stayed home from work and slept from 6:30 am to 2:30 pm. I did not wear my sleep mask. It is awful because I do anxiety stuff on purpose. M. |

I checked my work email.
My boss will excuse me from the huge hours long outside activity this weekend at 8:30 AM if I provide her with a rationale. What am I supposed to tell her? I just emailed a colleague and asked him for advice. I am under the care of two mds for this sleep problem but I don't want to come out of the closet if I don't have to. But anything I say that is vague and iffy sounds like I am malingering. I don't feel good. The sunshine this afternoon made me tired and I did not get anything done today. I've spent my whole life being tired. I wish I had done something with my life. M. |
