Sleepless

It was 3:55 am when I woke up. Not the glance around groggily kind of wake up, the fully aware I'm awake kind of awake. It has been happening increasingly lately. I'm not sure what is behind it. If it is the recent increase in my anti-depressant medication, you'd think that I'd have trouble falling to sleep, not staying asleep. I wonder if it is a sign that the pressure of my CPAP has become too strong. When I wake up I am often struggling with it. I am not gasping for air, but feeling like I'm bloated and have pressure on my lungs, like gas.  I think I'm going to call my sleep cardiologist and ask him about it. But for now, I'm wide awake too early in the morning and feeling tired. And worst of all, it is totally dark outside. I can't wait until I am waking in sunlight again.
