I rarely sleep..

I quit doing dope 15 years ago.

I'm 4 days clean from pot.

Even when I was clean years from pot, I couldn't sleep.
Maybe it will be different this time.

When I think about it, what comes to my mind is the years I laid in bed as a kid, listening to footsteps if they'd come to my door. V molested me for years.

Just writing it reminds me of that dread.

So, I stay awake listening to anything bad that might befall my home or my kids.

I've dealt with a lot of issues. I need to deal with this one too.

I'm tired of stuff. Sometimes I just want to quit...
so I came here instead.

Need to regroup again.

I don't really sleep much either, but just because I prefer to be awake really - never has been a problem for me as such, I probably average about 5-6 hours a day...

Sometimes I wake up about 2 or 3 and stay awake for a while then go back to sleep...
