Where it all began - “Running on empty”
I’d get into bed exhausted… but the second my head hit the pillow, my mind wouldn’t shut up. I’d toss and turn for hours, check my phone, try to force myself to sleep—nothing worked. Even when I did fall asleep, I’d wake up throughout the night and never felt fully rested. Mornings were the worst. I wasn’t just tired… I felt drained, unmotivated, and honestly just off.
