Thanks for the advice Sue.

Does anyone else have any good ideas for sleeping. I know a lot of us have trouble when it gets dark - suggestions and comments would be welcome.

Jamie

I love these little things!

you might find this strange

but i have a picture of my jill my x girlfriend on my computer in the beroom which i leave on all night. she is the only one i have ever felt safe with and she was the only person that could stop me from dreaming so i say goodnight to her and if i do have a dream it calms me down

i also hold on to a small teddy when i am sleeping because i used to have one and cuddle up to it when i was being abused

i am 45 and that works for me

Hi,

I am 43 and my Teddy is replaced by my Kitty . She is 25 months and 12 days now and since 25 months and 7 days she takes care of my nightmares. My husband used to poke me and say waaaaaaake up but she caress my face with her hand and keep kissing till I tell her it is O.K. let's sleep but she stays awake to guard me. Sometimes I feel depressed that an animal can be more tender than a human but she thinks that I am her mummy and I think she is the best daughter anyone can have and do not laugh I mean it. Sue

Hi
I have those sort of hallucinatory dreams where you arent quite asleep but youre not awake either and I have a system- light, bear, lemonade.
My lamp is right beside my bed- as is my bear and the lemonade I drink because the sugar completely wakes me up and shakes off the dream.
I used to go to sleep with radio on but I seem to have conquered that now.
I also use a method where I list in my mind all the things I DONT want to dream about before I sleep and hey presto! I dont dream about them! This halted a series of very unpleasant nights.
Best
Lark
