Insomnia(失眠)

I just could not fall asleep the other night.I just didn't feel sleepy.I can't explain why,but it was really annoying.

I got very bored lying in bed,so I decided to read a book.26____ But even when I finished reading,I still didn't feel tired.So I listened to some peaceful music.

That didn't work,either.I have heard people say if you have a warm drink before bedtime,it will help you drift off to sleep.So I went downstairs and made myself a cup of tea.27____ Still,I couldn't sleep.I was getting very frustrated by this point!

It felt strange to be awake while everyone else was asleep.28_____ In fact,it was a little bit frightening. When you go to sleep,it feels like one day ends and another begins.But if you stay up late,you realize that day and night are just a gentle transition(转变)，a cycle while has no end and no beginning.At 4 a.m.,I noticed a faint light coming through my curtains.The sun had started to rise!

Normally,I'm a heavy sleeper.29_____ So on this occasion,I consider myself lucky to see a beautiful sunrise.I knew I needed to get some rest,but it seemed the harder I tried to force myself asleep,the more difficult it was.

Eventually,I just let my mind go free.30_____ I listened to the birdsong...and the next thing I knew it was 11 a.m.!I was happy that I had managed to get some sleep!I have never struggled with sleeping before,so this was my first experience of insomnia.Fortunately,I have been sleeping well since then.
