Re: Stressed

Hi @pjc1965

Have you tried some mediation with an app to settle you down when it's timed to retire for the night? A nighttime routine is really important in calming your mind and body too!

I have experienced challenges with sleep and being reliant on medications so know that feeling when you want to sleep. Maybe you have had some success in the past and could practice that. What are some ways you have dealt with this before?

Regards,

RiverSeal

Re: Stressed

Hello @pjc1965 and welcome to the forums.

I am sorry you are stressed tonight and I hope you are able to relax and settle soon. I’m having a camomile tea as my night cap.
