The threat is real, the virus kills
I have added the American way to the headline as I want to compare where I am in the uk with the American to a deadly virus. As around 42,000 Americans have died due to covid I don't understand the people who believe it wont happen or hasn't happened and is a fake story. I love a conspiracy theory but this isn't a gunman behind a grassy mound. This is millions infected and thousands dead.

I can't sleep!
"I can't sleep!" It's the story of my life. I always complained about this when I saw a therapist to talk about my mental health, and sleep medication doesn't help me either. My sleep pattern lands me in a bad mood, not great when you have to study, write and clean the house the next day. Many of you will understand when I say this problem can make you feel agitated when you are a parent having to do the school run the next day. Luckily I don't have that issue at the moment, but when the clock is ticking, come morning you lay there, confused because its daylight before you know it! I have another problem with lack of sleep and going to sleep, it causes issues with restless legs. You know the one! The one where your legs want to move all night for no reason, and whether your tired or not, you just can't control it.
