I completely understand this. I've always had pain and was quite often told I was making it up when I was growing up - strange now that my Mum has decided that she's in so much pain constantly that she needs to tell me how badly she hurts and that I am the only who can understand that............. but her's is much, much worse than mine obviously....... *gently squishes Jaq*
Again I sympathise. My sleep is horrendous atm. What's your sleep hygiene like? Can you try to make a bedtime, shower/bath then bed with a warm milk or something?
