I am new to the forum. Hoping to connect with others who have sleep problems and get some ideas to help. Every few years I seem to get into a phase of sleep issues, seem to be related to particular health issues going on at the time and stress. Hate taking sleeping pills.
I have also always had a problem sleeping away from home, hotel, someone elses home, etc. Makes traveling a problem.
Interesting that you find it difficult to sleep when away from home since many insomnia sufferers find it easier to sleep when away from home since they are away from the environment that their mind has associated with sleeplessness and sleep-related fear, worry, and anxiety. Do you notice any specific health issues that appear to trigger your bouts of sleeplessness?

I think the reason I have more difficulty away from home is that I sometimes have no control of how dark I can make the room, the temperature of the room and unfamiliar sounds and too many sounds.
I think my bouts of sleeplessness at home come with job related stress which in turn triggers health related issues such as headaches, pain and digestive issues. I am an RN and right now at my age (64) the 12 hour shifts have become to rigorous. I plan to retire next March. Right now I am on a LOA and hopefully will not have to return.
When I start losing sleep the health issues exacerbate and then I cant sleep because of too much pain, a horrible cycle. Right now acupuncture is giving me some relief but its a slow process.
