Sleep

I found listening to the radio in the wee small hours gave me something else to focus on, although the World Service on Radio 4 does have some weird stuff on at that time in the morning!

Best wishes.

Hi Disneyqueen

I bought myself some cheap wireless air buds and they changed my life.  I started listening to relaxation apps, but moved onto podcasts and audiobooks, all free stuff online.  My earbuds work if I only use one at a time, so I can sleep on my side.  Similar to Sapphire I find it’s really useful to have something to listen to so I’m not left alone with my own thoughts.  I tend to drop off really quickly while listening.  Plus I have found loads of amusing and interesting podcasts so, even if I’m awake, I’m quite enjoying myself.  Best of luck xx

I am definately going to get some and give them a try. Thank you.

Hi Disneyqueen,

I also find it hard to sleep. I find I lay there and my brain goes in to overdrive. I often end up on the sofa with the tv on to try and stop my mind wandering. It does help and I do drift off. Sometimes it can take a while.
