What keeps you awake at night?

Wondering if I've turned the gas off.

Worrying about my children.

I am an insomniac, so I often draw and write at night.

If you have a nice drink before going to bed, you don’t stay awake at night. I like almost anything in a bottle.

Anxiety. Usually the best response is to think hard about things, work up some solutions and then go to sleep.

My metabolism. Ever since I was a little kid, I was always up halfway through the night.

The BBC World Service followed by the dawn chorus.

It used to be worrying about football results.

Threat of nuclear war, Iran/US situation, Syria, everything. I take sleeping pills.

The climate catastrophe.

Nothing, really. But without little sleeping pills, I’d go crazy.

Unfinished work and caffeine.

Dreaming that I am about to go on stage or set but haven’t got the right script.

I’ve been awake almost my entire life. I have had insomnia since I was a child.

Nothing – I’ve got some great tablets!

An exciting idea. I usually write for an hour or so, and then I go to sleep.

The fact that I’m a vampire.

My rational brain doing battle with my emotional brain.

It’s my snoring that keeps Loreto awake!

My husband snoring.
