    I’ve had waking up at three or for am for am hour at least every night for the last two years. Tried all the chemical help, nothing that worked worked longer than a few nights.

    I live in a complicated situation with an emotionally unavailable woman that I have three small children with and that situation won’t resolve itself for a long long time.

    Due to the nature of avoidant bonding, this situation and the emotional toll it takes waxes and wanes. During the better hopeful phases my sleep improves, during the bad phases I can’t fucking sleep.

    So I guess being hopeful helps?

        I have bad news regarding sleep. “Things will not, calm down, Daniel Jackson. They will, in fact, calm up.” ;) Chin up, it’s not forever.
