I hate insomnia.

I accidentally broke my phone today, so I'm using an old laptop I found in my room.

Insomnia sucks. I slept at 9 o'clock tonight, and I woke up at 11. Meaning I only got 2 hours of sleep. Now, I am unable to fall asleep. My eyes sort of feel tired, yet at the same time they don't.

I've lost my appetite to eat food. And my mood has been lower overall. It wasn't like this a few months ago. A few months ago, I still had horrible sleep at night, but I'd make up for it by sleeping for a loooong time in the morning. (e.g. sleeping at 6am, waking up at 1pm), but now I can't even sleep in the morning either. I can't take naps during the day.

My memory is getting worse, I'm getting brain fog, and I've had this specific, annoying headache for quite some time. Even when I take panadol, it just doesn't go away. I've also been feeling alot dizzier, and getting a sort of sense of derealization.

I tried taking melatonin, didn't help one bit. I'll try and go to my local GP on Monday, and see what I should do. I'll request for an MRI or sleep study or whatever you call those things aswell. I've seen multiple posts about fatal insomnia, and it's starting to worry me, too.

In the meantime, I suppose I'll just stay on my laptop, seeing as I can't go back to sleep.

Goodbye.
