Anyone else has this? It's 1:19, everyone's sleeping here besides for me. If I recall correctly I've had this on the past. I was so tired at the end of the fast but now I'm wide awake.

I need to be able to function tomorrow and the thought of that isn't making it easier to fall asleep!

Same here. I had a terrible fast and it’s taking forever for me to feel better. I have regular work tomorrow and still have a lot to do before yom tov.

What’s the magic potion? I’m breastfeeding and that’s why I felt horrible. Usually I’m fine but when I have a nursing baby it’s disastrous. Tried every trick in the book nothing worked Sad

Good for you👏
At least you're being productive, unlike someone else I know 😄

Super common! Your cortisol levels are high. You can try melatonin or Unisom if you have either of those.

I overslept on YK and only slept 2 hrs in the night, and woke up feeling like mush. Have to skip work for that. My day is packed today, I will collapse. Feeling dizzy all the time now (it’s morning here)

Same. It's almost 3am and I have to be up before 6. Yay!
I think my kids sense that I'm awake so they keep waking up tonight like every 20 minutes.
How oh how will I function tomorrow with a full day of school.

Oh my gosh, I’ve been Israel and I only slept like three hours. I thought I was the only one. Hopefully I’ll get back on track tonight.
