@TJ8 'work is killing me' I can relate to that
the worst thing is the negative images going around in my head .....even when I'm at home they keep replaying ....the negativity isn't my fault it's how other people react badly to situations ...anyone who works in retail will know what I mean
if everyone reacted more positive things would be better....but you know some people in workplace never learn or not willing to change

Yes I have lots of sleep problems.... nightmares/terrors most nights. Takes me for ever to fall asleep and such a light sleeper the smallest noise can wake me. Been like that for so long I think I'm used to it though
