[quote=Anonymous]I have broken sleep every night. My last period was about a year ago. I'm miserable and tired every day. I take a nap in the afternoons after I pick the kids up from school. I'm a SAHM, so I can do it. If I were working, I don't know how I'd get through the day. It's supposed to get better, friends who have gone through it say. Have you tried taking melatonin about 30 minutes before bedtime? It's supposed to regulate your sleep cycles. I am so tired at night, I fall asleep without even remembering to take it, but then I wake up around 4 a.m., and I can't get back to sleep. I listen to the radio (BBC) on headphones, or I get up and do email or read until I feel a little drowsy, usually around 6:30 a.m. when I have to get the kids up to get ready for school. It's miserable, OP, but try to grab as much sleep when and where you can, and hang in there until this nasty period of sleeplessness passes. [/quote]
