I have attempted for years to be on a regular sleep schedule and I am beginning to think it is not possible. I get a terrible surge of adrenaline every time I lie down to go to sleep, sometimes even if I just think about going to sleep. Some of my trauma happened to me when I was sleeping and even found video tapes of things being done to me while sleeping. Now every time I try to go to sleep I feel way too vulnerable and am scared for my safety even though I know I am safe where I am now. I have tried various medications and meditations but nothing seems to work. My mind races too fast to be able to meditate and my heart beats too fast. With the medications either they don't work at all or work too well as to where I am a zombie all the next day. Any experience or advice in reference to this?
