    Hi Linda,

    I’m glad to hear that you managed a couple of hours sleep before you had to go to work. However, you cannot function on just two hours of sleep a night.

     Have you tried any relaxation tapes or mindfulness? Try to avoid using the computer for at least two hours before you go to bed - maybe relax and read a book or listen to some music.

    Hope this helps,

  • Hey Jolamine and Linda,  I was reading your posts about not being able to sleep and your deepest Thoughts and worries keep you awake at night. I have Chronic Myeloid Leukaemia and I'm having Chemotherapy at the moment. Exactly like you both I have 3 grown up children and there is just my husband and myself at home now and I've always been " the strong one ". The one the family come to with their worries etc. Still do really. So at night when it's quiet and my husband is sleeping beside me is when my panic sets in and I can often fall apart. All the thoughts and things that worry me take over once it's quiet and then it all seems overwhelming. So I just wanted to say I really know how you Ladies are feeling and my heart goes out to you xxxxxxx
