I have had sleep issues for the majority of my life. Apparently I rarely slept as a baby. I used to be able to survive on little sleep, but I've lost that ability.

It takes me a long time to fall asleep, and quite often, I wake up in the night because I have to pee or because one of my dreams wakes me up.

For one or two years of my life, falling and staying asleep was not a problem. This was in the time when I lived with a roommate for the first time, when I was about 23 until I moved to Wainwright at age 25. I remember hoping that all my sleep problems were gone for good. It turns out that they were not. I wake up often and I have a hard time falling asleep simply because my thoughts run away with me and turn like a hamster on a wheel.

What about you?

I had really bad insomnia one semester in college, and I had to take Ambien to get back on track. Ever since then I generally fall asleep really quickly but I do wake up to pee if I drink too much money right before I go to sleep.

Also, I still totally owe you a critique, and I apologize for not getting it to you any sooner. Time just got away from me and I've been to embarrassed to say anything about it before.
