How it feels

It’s horrible - it makes me feel irrational and I fly of the handle, which I don’t normally do. I sometimes dread going to bed as I know I’ll just be woken up after not very much sleep!

You feel it in your chest, your heart beats fast, you feel like a zombie, your head is in the clouds, it’s dangerous to drive and I have a loss of patience.

I feel really stressed out and incompetent. It makes me anxious. I start anticipating how it will all go downhill from that point forward and cause the night to be awful and the next day for her to be cranky. Then I feel all flustered.
