Does anyone ellse tend to have an overactive brain before they go to bed? Like if your staying some where different like at a relative's house you can't sleep well unless it's your own bed. Other people's houses freak me out at night time. I can literally here everything from pipes creeking to floor boards to the wind outside. Then my over imagination kikcs in and thinks there must be somone there when reality I do t beleive in ghosts but old Victorian propperties really creep me out. I sleep fine in my house but when we stay at families houses not so much.
This never happens to me at all. Except every damned night. In any bed, anywhere, including my own, in my own house.
Yeah I don't like being in the house in my own. I'm ok when my parents are in the house but when I'm home alone I stay up all night and hate sleeping cause like I said due to sensory issues I can't sleep.
I can't imagine how difficult that must be PR. I hope you find something to help.....
My Mum worked in the sleep department if I could get any advice for you? I suspect you and your mum have tried everything though?
Alcohol and blue light from screens disrupts sleep.
We may feel like a drink helps us get off to sleep but that is habit mainly and the actual effect is disrupted sleep.
Blue light destroys circadian rhythms so is a very bad idea before bed and straight after you wake up.
I am trying to work on these areas myself.
It's more annoying when you've made plans the next day or something and you can't do anything cause your so drained or exsplaining to a job like why you always come in tiered. Most of the time I have black bags under my eyes cause I never sleep propperly end up looking like festa Adams from the Adams family. My mum says I sleep with my eyes open too and it literally takes me for ever to get to sleep I have to physically and mentally exhaust myself to be able to sleep other wise I can't.
