I find sleep is my only true pain free space, too bad I'm like you and can't manage more than 2 or 3 hours at a time. During flare ups I may get an hour here or there.

I listen to meditation music and just lay in bed those nights. I have no luck with meds so i smoke a little THC and helps me relax and sink into the mattress.

You are not alone in this.

Peace and love!!

Yes!! Ive recently started using cbd with thc (legal if you order on prescription in the uk) and i must say its worked a dream, i only wake up about 3 times in the night now and i got 8 hours last night which i havent done in years!! Its very expensive for what you get but hands down worth the money x

Since Fibro, I need to drink lots of water.

So I need to visit the ladies room a couple of times during my sleep time. What I have to do is use minimal light and immediately get back to bed. Absolutely Nothing more than that, or I can forget about getting any more sleep.

Yes very typical for fibromyalgia people. Years before I had my diagnosis I really struggled with that. Now I take some CBD and some Tylenol. Also some CBD creams anointment helps
