Mirror-Work Re: SLEEP
#60: July 20, 2014, 03:55:21 PM
In It- thanks for "bumping" this info up on the board. Sleep is my greatest pleasure and nemesis all at the same time! I have narcolepsy (do not have the sx of randomly falling asleep!), but I due deal with excessive daytime sleepiness,  EVERYDAY.  It makes no difference how much or how little I sleep, I feel tired all the time! My problem,  apparently,  is that my brain does not REM right, in other words, I do not go through the phases of sleep as I'm supposed to. Unfortunately,  nothing can be done to correct this. I do take medication daily to help reduce fatigue, and dr told me I should take a "therapeutic nap" everyday.  Some days I can, some days I can't.  Needless to say, I can absolutely attest to the importance of getting a good night's sleep most, if not every night!
   Dream on!

I'm a firm believer in NAPS! I'm up at 4 AM so by 2PM I'm SHOT.

Try to not stress too much about it. Lack of sleep can screw with how bad things really are and mess with perspective.

Do something comforting before bed...((((hugs))))

There are two ways of spreading light:
Be the candle; or the mirror that reflects it

Don't ask why someone is still hurting you; ask why you keep letting them.What you allow continues.

At some point you have to get sick of going through the same sh!t.

Women are NOT rehabilitation centers for badly raised men. It is not your job to fix ,parent, raise or change him.
You want a partner not a project.
