Another one in the ‘wide awake club’ lately. It comes and goes. White noise helps often but not always. I am retired so feel sorry for those having to work after bad nights. Strange that I didn't have the problem when working in a stressful job with long hours, must have been too tired.

Another one wide awake. I was tired a couple of hours ago but not now.

Sorry to hear that it's not really improving much. Hopefully it will do soon, due to recent events you have endured it's not surprising. You have probably been living on nervous energy for weeks. Now that things are improving your body needs time to readjust. I really hope that it will get better soon.
