I hope you can find out what is going on with yourself because I could have written this, right down to the jumping when someone says something to you. I push myself to do things and have to nap every day. When I wake, I can not get my eyes to open, I try as hard as I can but they will not open until they are ready to do so, it is aggravating.
My driving is not as bad as yours, but I have noticed I am slower to react.
My nights were hell trying to sleep, for the last 2 weeks I have been trying CBD oil, you can order it from Rush Hemp Farms in Maryville Tennessee. I take it a couple of hours before I want to go to sleep, I still need to get up to pee, but I can fall back to sleep.
I wonder how many women our age feel like this, it can not be just the two of us.
I think it is actually quite common. One of my sisters sleeps terribly, and my cousin says she only sleeps well now and than. My brother has had sleep problems, too. I'm sorry to hear you have the same issues as I do. It's no fun!
No, it is not fun, and like you said if you do not get out and do things, they won't get done. :(
