How Did You Sleep Last Night?

Slept all night, didn't wake up to unsafe dreams like I usually do, just this weird image of a TV with all the images going by too fast.

Meds are weird stuff I guess.
 
I didn't. Not a wink until about 5am and then I had the most horrible nightmare. :(

I will try some of your tips, especially having a bath, I too get body memories at night and feel tense and horrible. Hopefully tonight will be better!
 
I slept pretty good last night - 3rd night in a row - yeah! I actually slept in until almost 8 (which is unheard of for me). Still anxious this morning, though. I can't wait until THAT goes away.
 
I slept pretty deep, but I think I was dreaming because I'm all sorts of absolutely buggered!
Moved downstairs because I was constantly twitching and waking up H, must have twitched and flailed my way through the night again.

Will go back to bed shortly, staying awake is not possible at the moment, and considering it took me 5 min just to type this, then go back and fix the spelling.....me thinks I'm rooted!:sleep:
 
Very well, but I have become dependant on a drink of alcohol to make me sleep. It works but it is not healthy. Need to sort it out really.
 
As usual, I had many, many dreams. I don't like dreaming anymore, got tired of it. :( Dreaming makes me wake up feeling more tired than the way I was before going to sleep.
 
Same again today-posting this at 12:30 am. School starts on Tuesday. I'm so tired but can't sleep.

I'm going to see if my closet will help-I have a feeling that the reason I'm not sleeping lately is because I don't feel safe (I keep dissociating, getting up out of bed and going to stand in a corner, or I get auditory flashbacks and physical body memories. )

I hope my closet does its job.
 
Last night.. gah.. went to bed at 22.00 and finally got to sleep about 12.30. Had a nightmare about my trauma and hospital. The hospital was full. It was really calm and kind of disturbing...

Woke up at 5.20am to get up. Looking forward to the weekend and sleeping in.

Really annoyed. Why are the nightmares starting again? Weird thing is I feel nothing. Guess it is the emotional numbness.
