Hi Ms. V: Sounds like an interesting article. Not sure what shame I would be hiding, have to think about that one. However, I had an odd thought earlier today. I have a complete fear of happiness. I feel that if I’m happy something bad is going to happen. I’m certain that happiness cannot last, so the moment I feel even the slightest bit contented, I’m certain it’s going to end. I know … so stupid. Definitely something that I need to seek counseling about. Have to break the pattern of self destruction.
Hope that you have leveled out as far as your sleeping pattern goes. Transitioning from day to night is brutal … I don’t think I would be able to handle it. It’s good that you know that it was a gambling trigger. Now perhaps you can find other ways to manage. What about naturopathic interventions for stabilizing your sleep cycle?
Hope to see you on chat this weekend. RG
