I don’t know why, but sleep has been difficult lately. It feels like every night for the last week and a bit I spend more time trying to drift off than actually sleeping. Then, when I do manage to fall asleep, my body seems to jerk me awake the second I do, and I wake up feeling restless and the cycle begins again.
In fact, I’ve been feeling restless pretty much constantly lately for reasons I’m not sure about too, and I’ve found myself craving company more than usual. Normally, I’ve perfectly happy spending time alone, but these last couple of weeks I seem to have been constantly refreshing all of my social media networks in case anyone sends me a message, or says something I think I could comment on.
I mean, given that my main hobbies are writing, blogging and making YouTube videos I spend most of my time hanging out on the internet anyway, but I find myself wanting conversation more and more.
My anxiety levels have been higher than normal too. I don’t like it.
This isn’t the post I had planned for today. I already had something written but I’m saving that for another day because I guess I just wanted to sound some things out and see if any of you get like this sometimes. I’m seeing my dad later on today so that should be nice, and I’ve made an (overly-long) to do list to try keep my brain occupied. That said, I’m sleepy now, so maybe I could have a nap for a bit..
I hate that restless anxious feeling. Hopefully you will feel better soon.
Do you think it might have something to do with the change of seasons? I always get out of sorts when the seasons start to change. Just a thought.

Yeah I think so, and the fact that it keeps going hot and cold here. I’m actually thinking of writing a post about it.
