Sometimes I get solo so tired and overstimulated I can’t sleep at night. Even closing my eyes for 20 minutes during the next day can mean I get a decent sleep at night. Also 10 or 15 minutes of morning sunshine helps, I think it helps melatonin production iirc.
Yes, everyone is different. Something else that helped was a bunch of bs happening and having a major ego death. I happened to be unemployed, so took the time to stay to myself except for going out for food and toiletries, quit the little weed and drinking I did and got really into doing what Jung called shadow work. It was painful, messy, and all-around not fun. But wholly worth it. After this community project is finished, I’m probably going to get busy with that shadow work again. I can tell I’ve neglected it too long.
Im with you on unemployment unfortunately. Closing in on a year. Just read another we ware not going with you and have one active possibility (contact after resume). Which has almost where I have been constantly at since the spring. Was worse from just before the election through the winter though with spans of nothing return contact wise (outside of we are not moving forward with the role). I doubt I will find an ego death and I have nothing to quit but soda. Which aint happening.
I saw more of that before the spring. Since I have not as much and I was hoping things were getting better. I hope to not be getting feedback like that.
Proper sleep?
I try but that is the one that gets goofed up first by life not being great.

I have been tossing and turning so my sleep has not been great.

I just had two opportunities say that they won’t be filling the positions at all, so that probably doesn’t bode well…

Both of these were in the last couple of weeks, so…
I think shadow work was the point. Best to you, either way.
