18. Cycle of Worry 

Insomnia sucks. You can’t get your mind to turn off. Your subconscious can be your own worst enemy, making it difficult for you to go to sleep even when you’re tired. If you thought that was bad enough, then animals, especially dogs, do exactly the same thing.

So if you have a dog, as this commenter pointed out, then you’re probably only going to be more worried that your dog is stressed and not getting a good night’s sleep, forcing you to stay up and ruin your own sleep. It becomes a vicious cycle, albeit a slightly funny one.
