When sleeping is hard
Hi,
I’m a newbie here. Like many, I struggle with sleep, and I’m not living in the UK.
My sleep difficulties started in childhood, with ups and downs over the years. I also have complex trauma, which I believe is a major trigger.
I’d love to connect with others who are dealing with trauma and its impact on sleep.
Thanks,
Samsara
