    1. why did you watch? I watched because I’m doing just what the gentleman in the story is doing and knew what was happening but had gotten into a habit.

  1. You said it! Bed at 10:00, up 20 times, finally sleep at 4:00, wake at noon and repeat every frikken night.
    I don’t drink, I shut off the gadgets at 7 and don the blue blockers, not particularly stressed. I blame being thrown off by not working for the first time in 40 years. The last couple of nights I’ve konked out by midnight after gulping down a concoction of Chamomile tea steeped for a long time, with added half tsp cinnamon, tbsp lemon juice, tbsp Bragg apple cider vinegar. It’s too early to tell whether it’s working or just sheer exhaustion.

  2. When you tear out a mans tounge you are not proving him a liar youre only telling the world that you fear what he might say. Fascism 1930’s style – Recognize enemies of the state by what they wear (a yellow star)

  3. Medical solution; as even the LED lighting is harming sleep, and you can only heal when your
    sleeping. So, go to triple W nutrimedical dot com. Order ENDOLUTEN. 20 capsules. While your
    at it, order the COVID solution; First line of defence kit ! 🙂
