Very good idea. A little low on money right now since I don't start my new job until Monday... But it may be worth scrounging up some money to do so. If I was still drinking I'd find money for that, soooo..

Thank you for the suggestion about the YouTube meditations, may try one of them tonight if I can't sleep. Funny you mentioned theanine, my therapist recently told me about a tea that has that in it. Drank a couple mugs of that tea today and it really does help! Maybe so I'm not up all night peeing I'll try it in pill form

thanks again!
