Are you having trouble sleeping?

Sleep problems may be caused by how you’re feeling emotionally, or as part of the side effects for cancer treatment. If you find it hard to have a good sleep, you’re not alone. The Online Community is here to support you 24/7. 

“Getting a cancer diagnosis is extremely stressful, and that brings a whole load of emotions, and lack of sleep certainly does not help. I think many of us have periods of insomnia. I experienced a long period of not sleeping. I could go off to sleep quite quickly, but after an hour I would find myself wide awake again, and would spend the rest of the night getting frustrated because I couldn't sleep."

    Not too bad meself lass, but OH's face is telling a different story. Yet again his coupon is going down the toilet! I told him, after the last flop, to reverse his predictions and then he might get a result. But he's stuck to his tried and hopeless formula and it's goodbye money, hello bin.

    You've had exactly a minute and a half more rain than we have.

    The mastiff sounds interesting - I adore huge dogs. As well as medium and tiny ones, obviously, but the big boys and girls are really something to behold xxx
