Hello to everyone even though I am new in these forums I have been into these things for years now.

The thing is that lately ( 1-2 months) I have had hard time falling asleep when I wake up in the middle of night. I usually wake after REM-periods, a habit that I taught myself long ago. After writing my dream journal I try to get sleep again and it often results lots of waking hours. The problem is that I don't feel myself tired in the night , but I dislike the idea of 5 hour night sleep because it will affect my day routines.

But yesterday I had an odd night. I had slept for 5 hours and woke up as usual, filling my journal. I went to the bathroom and returned to the bed. Again, I had hard time falling asleep, so I just layed in my bed for 3 hours. Then I fell asleep and had a LD that faded immedeatly and I woke up. I thought, what the heck and tried to sleep again. Again I had a LD which faded right after I had confirmed I was asleep with RC. Same routine went for couple of hours, me seeing an LD and always waking up ( maximum. 15 seconds in LD state I believe)

So when I finally decided to get out of bed I have had 6 LDs after another, which I find quite interesting.

Any opinions why they lasted so short amount of time? I have concluded that it must have something to do with the time ( early morning) and the quality of sleep ( I was sleeping quite lightly). I don't believe they were dismissed by excitement or anything. Even usually working stabilizing methods were all in vain. All comments welcome
