I suppose I should also mention this as well, since it is relevant. When I lie in bed now, I feel like I'm being touched...down there. I don't like it and it is another reason why I have to curl up to protect myself. I've only felt this way the past few nights. But when I wake up in the morning, I feel the same way. It's uncomfortable constantly lying on my site in (is it called the foetal position?), it makes me ache and I want to stretch out, but that, as I have explained before, makes me feel way too vulnerable.

Perhaps I am going crazy after all.
