No, there is no better feeling in the world than drifting off to sleep. As a depressive and a chronic insomniac, my case manager once asked what I most looked forward to. Having the loss of interest typical of major depression, I told her I most looked forward to going to sleep. She thought that was sad, but when sleep is scarce, particularly so scarce that sleep deprivation causes psychosis, sleep's the best thing there is!! Sign Me - About to Go There ~ billieJ
