Probably hard to do at this time of day with such little sleep/rest, and the rest of the day ahead. Just on a wild guess, you've got a lot going on (to say the least) which can cause a little stress, and create the initial sleeplessness (ok, going on record: am NOT a doctor!(ha) ... just reflecting on my own experiences...).<br /><br />As with most typical health advice; eat healthy, get a few minutes of some kind of exercise (running to class, meetings, etc doesn't count), meditate/disengage from your 'work', try to get some routine sleep habits (even at a minimum). Try to be aware if you're getting 'stressed'(saying all of this with the understanding of all you have to do, etc., and that you're probably doing as well as you can, all things considered...). <br /><br />If you don't drink many drinks like AMP, or much caffeine period, I can certainly see it adding to the cycle of sleeplessness. Hard cycle; can't sleep, take caffeine, etc, can't sleep more, overtired, more caffeine, etc...<br /><br />But, you're young and vigorous, so you'll 'recover' fairly quickly.<br /><br />Sorry if too much info. Such situations happen to us all now and then.<br />Get rest! Feel better!<br />Best, Ray...Rayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09835257852108817929noreply@blogger.com
