I thought that was interesting. Like, the body could keep going all day/all night forever, but the brain can't.

Sleep issues, when undiagnosed can cause so many other issues. I was so depressed for a while, and I thought I'd never get out of that funk. Found out about my sleeping issue and Im doing so much better! Who knows what you've got in terms of sleeping issues, but once they figure out u can work on readjusting yourself and you'll be so much happier because of it! Godspeed! I know the feeling.

I also have a hard time explaining exactly how I feel to my doctor. Until recently I didn't even know I was experiencing anxiety. I learn a lot of stuff from reading your blog though. I hope your unknown feeling passes soon. I hate when I feel a certain way but I can’t figure out what exactly it is. I also have a hard time explaining exactly how I feel to my doctor.
