I have a real strong psychological issue with sleeping. I feel that it is a waste of time (even though I know it isn’t) and so I can become quite irritated and angry when I get tiered and have to go to bed. My mind tells me that there must be some way to beat sleep but, again, I know this isn’t possible not physically healthy. Why do I not want to sllp? you may very well ask. It is because I have too muc that I want to do and I love the dark hours as that is when I become more alive.

Hi Tip
I wondered if you have been assessed for ADHD? I myself have ADHD and am also a mental health professional, also specialising in ADHD. Might be worth looking into.

I dream every night. They are vivid, stressful or not pleasant. I am suffering from sleep depreviation. I have 61 percent weakness on the right side. Could this be my problem. I desperately need help. Thank you

Yes, i resonate with this. Except I do like to sleep, the bed, blankets, reading in bed… so neither makes sense to me what the resistance is about. I just started using brainspotting for some other past issues where I found out some unconscious pain. I plan to try this technique for this issue, and try to see what’s underneath.
Have you figured anything more out since you posted awhile back?
I just joined here to maybe find support, but it seems pretty quiet here. Jenn
