WePow,

Obviously, it is not just you. There are so many distractions throughout the day, it can be easy to overlook my own thoughts and feelings. Actually, I can't keep up!

But, at night, it is not peacefully quiet in my world. All sounds are amplified in my ears ~ breathing, creaks, thoughts, memories. I distract myself with mellow classical music, without a lot of changes in pitch and tone, and finally allow sleep to take me. I do still wake 3-4 times a night though.

(((hugs))) to you!
