dairy entry on sleepless summer night

Answer:
The diary of a sleepless night
10 May 2018
I have real trouble with sleep, so much so that not sleeping has become a constant in my life.
I'm working out ways to move away from 'one good nights sleep, one terrible nights sleep, one good nights sleep, one terrible nights sleep' to a more consistent and regular nights sleep.
I've written a diary about what it's like to be me when sleep doesn't arrive ...
First moment of consciousness in the morning
I'm awake
It’s morning
I can feel the warmth of the mattress cocooning me, the softness of the pillow and duvet over my face
The light is creeping in around the edge of sheet
I can hear birds singing announcing the day and the traffic starting to get busy
What happened through the night?
"Eventually... I remember... I got to sleep okay"
I woke up just after 1am
I stayed awake until 5am
I finally fell back into deep sleep, exhausted
Dragged out of deep sleep with urgent alarm at 6.30am.
Another day with only three and a half hours sleep
It’s going to be a long one
How my body and mind feel
"I feel exhausted, it’s been an exhausting night … and all I’ve done is ‘sleep’"
