Long grief

Hi, I’ve been suffering from insomnia for the last 11 years, I put it down to the birth of my child. My father died shortly after the birth of my son, and I am now wondering if my problems are down to grief, I never had chance to process the grief because of my young child. I now have problems with sleeping, I have tried everything but nothing seems to work. Any shared feelings or experiences would be much appreciated X

Hi

I lost my daughter 16 years ago and have not slept well since.To make it worse l lost my husband suddenly last June.
I tend to wake up with my mind racing, l find if l am not too bad l can get back to sleep if l have a quick coffee and go back to bed within twenty minutes. It doesn’t always work but it breaks my thoughts.
