I now have a way to sleep without waking up from bad dreams!

For about a month, I have been avoiding going to sleep at night so that I would be too tired to wake up from the dreams I'd been having. It seemed to work best if I only got 4 to 5 hours of sleep. But I stayed pretty tired during the day and didn't function very well overall. So, my T suggested that I ask my alters if someone else could handle the dreaming for a while so that the body could get enough rest. I did just that and, lo and behold, for the past 3 nights in a row I've gone to bed and gotten 8 hours of uninterrupted sleep (well, except that I have a 2 yr old dd who has PTSD who wakes up too).

It seems that by simply asking my system if there is an alter who can take over having the dreams at night so that we can all get enough rest, I no longer have to wake up in a complete panic or drenched in sweat. It seems too easy! I guess for me, the simplest solution is the best.

Just wanted to put this out there in case it can help someone else.
