    Oh for a good night's sleep. I've tried all the usual. Anybody any ideas? I dream quite a lot and kick, punch, wriggle and basically do a work out all night. I wake myself up 6 -8 times a night and am often awake from 4:30 am. I know it's a common problem but anyone any suggestions.

    The purpose of life is not to be happy. It is to be useful, to be honorable, to be compassionate, to have it make some difference that you have lived and lived well.

    Yup I've tried meditation. I don't drink a lot of caffeine, try to wind down with bath, music, warmth etc etc as soon as I get I to bed although I'm exhausted my brain is still tumbling about. When I sleep I dream all night things connected to my PTSD.
    Awake since 4:30. Psychology today so hopefully talking will help. Also see if any update on getting a CPN to cover while mine is off sick.

    Have you tried keeping a dream and mood diary? Does something like a particular piece of music make you feel calm, rested and safe? Could you put that going quietly on repeat?
    Have you spoken to the care team about it?

    Finally movement on getting a replacement CPN. I got a phone call from team leader at 5:30pm to say someone would phone me tomorrow or Monday. ok so more days of waiting for a phonecall (really stresses me out) but something is finally moving. SH has been bad this week and getting motivated has been naff but made it to my training centre today.
