Someone to Talk to About Insomnia

...read more

Struggling to fall asleep or stay asleep can take a toll on both your mind and body. When you’re lying awake at night, racing thoughts and worries can make it feel impossible to get the rest you need. Over time, lack of sleep can lead to exhaustion, irritability, and difficulty focusing during the day.

Sleep issues can have many causes, from stress and anxiety to lifestyle habits and medical conditions. Finding ways to calm your mind before bed - like limiting screen time, practicing relaxation techniques, or maintaining a sleep routine - can help. It’s also important to be kind to yourself rather than stressing about sleep.

If insomnia is affecting your well-being, talking to someone can help. At 7 Cups, our listeners are here to offer support, encouragement, and a safe space to share your struggles.

I am a great listener. I'm the middle child of 3 sons. My two brothers look to me as if i'm the oldest sibling. They come to me for my wisdom and knowledge. I've worked in data entry, customer service roles for about 20 years. I've also been a care giver for my parents and also help with my grandmother and uncle and aunts when needed.  I enjoy traveling and seeing different parts of the world and many parts of the United States. I believe that we are put on this earth to be a blessing to others. when you find something that makes you happy doing I would say you have found your passion.  I know that comforting and encouraging others is my calling. This is a gift that I never had to go to school for.

Well, there are just few things to say. I wish there was no problem in anyone's life and there were just moments of happiness and joy. But we all are different. Two people in the whole world don't have the same set of finger prints, so how can we have the same set of thought process? I am here to share my difference, and to learn yours.I am here to make ourselves realise that it is peace and love that binds our diversity. Where there's human, there's freedom. So, for once, think of yourself as a free light feather which flies in the direction of the air(me) and trusts the air to let it land at a safe, secure and happy place. Trust me to talk out your heart. Let me walk with you and still make you feel better and happier :)

So far, I genuinely feel like she is the only person to have understood me. Like I’ve been doing therapy for a few years and this is the first time where I genuinely feel understood by somebody. I feel listened to. And then I really appreciate her because it feels like she’s guiding me through with questions.
