Autistic Adult - Trouble Sleeping

James19932024

Hello,

For the last 2 or so weeks, I have been trouble sleeping at night. I have my favourite pillow case, but, my actual pillow inside would not stay "right". By this i mean, that it loses its "comfyness" (does that make sense??). I have to shake the pillow 5x upper side, 5x bottom side, 5x left hand side and finally, 5x on the right hand side. I have 3 pillows all made of the same material (cotton, which uusally get on with) and all my pillow cases are also made of cotton as well. I was my pillow cases regularly. My current pillows are non machine washable. My Bedsheet and duvet are also made of cotton and are also washed regularly. Im not sure, (but its entirely possible) that the stuff inside all the pillows are coming apart, but then, could could the cotton be my "new" iritation sensitivity? If this is the case, does it seem odd / strange that this only happens with my bed stuff and, is it "normal" for a material that you like, suddenly iritates you to the point that its making you not sleep and being close to a meltdown because of it?

Any advice would be greatly welcomed,

Thanks

  • Some other suggestions for re-fluffing a pillow, in case they help:

    I actually use a different method that I saw online at some point: holding the pillow above the bed (perhaps around 3 feet), allow it drop so that it first lands fully on its side and/or end. This works very well for the polyester-filled pillows that I prefer.

    I don't personally like memory foam pillows. I've tried a few, with varying internal foam designs, but found all of them too uncomfortable.
