Sorry things are rough for u right now. Have u ever thought of completely redoing ur bedroom? U can usually find someone elses mixed paint they didny want real cheap and stores always have pretty good sales on bedsets,curtain(s),etc.. U cld move the tv in there or get something soothing like a lava lamp (those are great for anxiety)! Move the furniture around, add some style of ur own maybe? I too like a tv to fall asleep w/ so i set the timer on mine for however long and i am slowly getting used to not needing the sound. One thing i did learn as a long time insomniac is if after lying down for 15 minutes and not feeling drowsy, get up, do something until u feel u may be able to sleep again. It takes repeating but it helps u not get sleep anxiety. Take care ; ) PS~ever thought of getting a kitty cat? They are wonderful bed buddies and it is proven that they help many illnesses?!
