Ihave no problem getting to sleep, i do have a problem with staying asleep, the slightest thing wakes me. I have terrifying nightmares too. I sleep walk, have night terrors. I hate bedtime.

my sleep pattern like fm is never the same , i go to bed and sleep can be for days , only pausing in sleep to drag myself to the bathroom , no time for washing just a baby wipe rub down , gross but true , if someone brings me food i may eat , then other times i drop to sleep but am awake at insane o clock mooching about , or only knowing ive been asleep when i wake up irespective of where i am ,ie cinema , friends homes , this type being sleeping like the dead or nodding off for a few mins during the adverts on tv and feeling like ive slept for hours

Hiya, have you tried relaxation tapes as I find these very useful. they dont keep me asleep all night but are very relaxing and help to calm my thoughts so that it is easier to fall asleep. x
