The dripping sound of rain on my roof and constant thoughts running in my head made me unable to sleep. I hate how much my head makes me think at night. I twist and turn, close my eyes and started counting the numbers backwards pushing my thoughts away but that didn't help me either. This is how i am every night trying to get proper sleep but when ever i close my eyes a new thought arises in my mind out of nowhere which leads to awful eye-bags and heavy head in the morning.
Me, myself Everly Gilbert turned 22 this October and I am an average looking girl with olive complexion, black shoulder length hair and dark brown eyes with fuller lips. I am currently doing my bachelors and also working as an advice columnist in a magazine and online websites. I enjoy my work and my readers who have so many interesting questions for me to answer. But even though i advise people and give them a way for solution I am unaware of what to do with my own problems. As it is said it is easy to advise others but when it comes to yourself, you couldn't follow your own advise. I find it very true because i have so many suggestions for my readers but when it comes to me i have nothing.
I was staring at my ceiling as my alarm clock went off indicating it was time for me to wake up . NOT AGAIN ! I didn't get any sleep last night too, 'it's going to be a long day' , i thought to myself. I dragged my tired body out of bed for a shower hoping it will wash away my tiredness a little. After coming out of shower , i quickly changed into something comfortable and grab my self a tea to start my day. I checked my watch, it showed 8 past 20 . My class wouldn't start for another 40 minutes and it only takes me 20 minutes to get there by car. So i decided to sit for a while and check my websites which i work for, if i have any new questions to answer to my agony readers. The questions were as usual about breakup issues ,affairs, work problems, sex issues and most of them was about love. I was scrolling down the page as one particular question caught my attention. It was really simple question but hit me right in my head. "How to control your thoughts at night?" i instantly clicked the mail and read. It was by anonymous man. He stated that he was having sleepless nights for a month now because he couldn't control his thoughts at night. He hadn't explained much about what thoughts kept him up at night ? I felt an urge to know more about his situation as it was much similar to mine so i replied back requesting to explain more about his sufferings before giving him any advices. After that i quickly grabbed my purse and left my apartment for my uni.
