Welcome to Part Two!
If you're coming from our Nighttime 101 Guide (and if you're not, why don't ya start there first!), it may seem the techniques offered there are a bit more on the advanced side as they'll compare to what's about to be presented. So, why would we have picked that as the starting point if these are more simplistic, quicker fixes?
While those ‘foundational four’ skills - a nighttime routine, journaling, internal communication, and medication - do require more in-depth understanding and greater effort overall, we really feel that for survivors with Complex PTSD and dissociative disorders, that approach to sleep is truly your first line of defense. It is your ground level to build on. If you cannot successfully apply some of those tools, your sleep could remain interrupted and fitful even if you completed every single item on this list. The tips and tricks here are more like icing on the cake; things to add to your already-reliable baseline that will improve the quality of the rest you may finally be getting.
It's possible some of these may become a part of your own foundation, particularly if they tackle a critical issue that's been keeping you up, but for the most part, none of these alone will be the key that unlocks decades of restlessness for you. We hope they instead improve what you've already been working on - tying up loose ends, and settling any of the hiccups that continue to cause you grief. With trauma, sometimes the simplest of steps can still make the largest differences, particularly in this complicated fight for good rest.
So, let's go some sleep! Here is a list of several additional things you can try that may create a safer, more comfortable, restorative, and peaceful rest.
Make your room, and your bed, an inviting place to be. If your room is full of clutter, food, or your school or work items, or is comprised of drab colors, lifeless pillows, and only the bare bones necessary to call it a bedroom, how is your poor mind ever supposed to want to be there for several hours? How is it going to feel calm, secure, and nurtured? Warm things up! Make it a place that welcomes you, pulls you in, is a place you want to be.
Even if you possess very little or have minimal means to change things, there are small ways to make your room your own and tell your mind ‘at least I care about me'. Keep it decluttered, refreshing, and not too busy. Try not to bring things into it that wind you up or stress you out - like work, school, or therapy projects. Create a sea of fluffy pillows, cozy blankets, soft colors. Maybe add a few nice pictures or go real wild and buy some new drapery that makes it look like you really know what you're doing in there. ;)
Try out a simple DIY project that makes you proud of yourself and what you've done with the space. (And hey, not crafty at all? All the more reason to create something just for you! Because not only will you be even more proud of what you were able to make, you'll always be reminded of the fact you believed you were worth that effort! Because you are!) Even with the smallest of budgets, it's possible to take a space you've sorely neglected and transform it into your perfect, personalized little oasis. And, this seemingly insignificant change to where you rest your head can actually do wonders for your mind and body - which leads to more Zzz's.
Use signs or pictures near your bed to help with grounding. Put notes and personalized reminders right where you can see them from your space on the bed - especially if you should awake with a start from a nightmare. Create a pretty sign for the wall, put a notecard or photo in a frame that stays on your nightstand, decorate the ceiling if you have to! Make something that has the current year in bold lettering, along with with other grounding or reassuring statements.
Perhaps you need to elaborate further on where you are, how old you are, that you are safe now, or a mantra that settles or re-centers you — anything that you know you'll need to see the moment you open your eyes struggling. Whether you wake from a nightmare, re-open your eyes as you're drifting, or wrestle away flashbacks during the night, having those reminders right where you can see them - without having to work too hard to find them when you're already disoriented - can really be the thing that helps you right then until you're in a better place to help yourself more broadly.Turn all the clocks in the room around. As long as you have a trusty alarm set, no one needs to see those glowing numbers taunt them with how much time you do or don’t have left to sleep. Is it 12:16 or 4:52? Who knows?! Who cares! I got time and can’t wait to use all of it on sleep!
Make a music playlist just for sleep. The options here are limitless. Some folks like calming versions of songs they enjoy during the daytime, while others go for ambient music, music made for sleep, classical sonatas, or even kids' lullaby music. If you have child parts inside, sometimes an album full of kids' music (or just sprinkling a song or six into your otherwise adult playlist) can be great for all of you as a unit. Whether you like a Fisher Price or Baby Mozart album made with newborns and young children in mind, pretty Helen Jane Long albums, any of (ironically named) Sleeping At Last's instrumental tracks, or songs from your favorite film score, there is such a wide range of music that can help you strike a balance between adult you and music for a child-oriented mind. ..no matter which end of that spectrum you'd like to fall on. And, even if you don't have parts inside, you'd be amazed how much lullaby-esque songs can soothe even the toughest of adults - sending them peacefully off to dreamland.
Some individuals prefer there be lyrics, so as to keep their mind engaged and less likely to drift into dark places, while others need zero lyrics because they keep them awake or cause them sing along ;) Whatever you need is just right and definitely out there with a little bit of effort! Change it up weekly if you need, or keep it exactly the same so that your body always knows it's time to rest when you hear it. And? If you sleep with a partner who's anti-tunes, the lightest little bit of quiet music from beneath your pillow can still be more than enough to reach you. Headphones/earbuds are also an option, but we'll hit on those later!
Discover podcasts, Spotify playlists, or white noise apps that really appeal to you. The internet and smartphones/iPads/etc have changed the game in helping people get some sleep - particularly if they cannot staaaaand silence, yet outside noise keeps them up. Entire Spotify playlists exist just for sleep. There are apps upon apps upon apps that contain soothing sounds or "white noise" options specifically designed to help you rest easier.
If music isn't your thing but a flashing TV is too much, podcasts may be your solution. Find one you love, one that bores you to tears, or is a happy medium between fascinating and something you aren't too invested in. That way you can stop listening and fall asleep without being sad you missed something important. Podcasts without massive highs and lows in volume or content that could be stressful are most recommended. Some of us find that the podcast A Way With Words fits that bill nicely for most survivors :) But there are tons out there for you to discover.
Consider buying some darkening curtains/blinds. If you are super light-sensitive or find you're only able to sleep during the day, a set of darkening curtains/blinds can be a lifesaver. And the good news is, inexpensive stores like Walmart and Target even have some great options now. We're sure other outlets or discount fabric stores would have even more impressive prices, but you don't have to completely break the bank for darkening curtains anymore.
Conversely, buy lighter blinds if you have a hard time waking up or like to sleep all day as an escape. We all want our blinds closed at night so no one can see in, but if you're prone to sleeping in all day or struggle with depression to the point it keeps you returning to that bed in the daytime - some lighter blinds may be what you need. A bright, sunny room is harder for many to sleep in, but it also helps keep your internal clock more aware of the time of day - willing you to stay awake even if you want to come back. Staying on a proper sleep|wake schedule during the day can make resting at night a much better experience.
Consider going to bed with a full tummy. We know traditional sleep guides (and whack diet advise columns) insist on not eating an hour or more before bed. Whether they claim it gives you bad dreams or makes you gain weight, little to no science agrees. And when it comes to Complex PTSD and dissociative disorders specifically, for many survivors, an empty stomach can be upsetting for a number of reasons. Some grew up rather poor and had to go to bed hungry each night. Others were plainly denied food as punishment or as part of their abuse. Many survivors have struggled severely with eating disorders, and may still be struggling today. Some simply just could not eat after trauma when they were young, or wouldn't do so before bed if they thought trauma was imminent because it made them sick.
All of these reasons and countless others can be terrible reminders of trauma, pain, and sickness — the simple growl of your stomach as you try to go to sleep can signal to your mind and body that you aren't okay. Something as simple as heading to bed with a moderately satisfied, or even full, tummy can lead many to feel more secure, and thusly safe enough to disengage for rest. And, eating a bit before bed can even lead some to just naturally get sleepier, solely because their body is no longer trying to get their attention to tell them they're hungry. Imagine that!
Try not to drink too much right before bed. Conversely to above, drinking too much before you head to bed can not only make you feel a little sloshy when you lay down, but it frequently leads to that midnight bathroom run. Sometimes just KNOWING you'll need to go to the bathroom in the middle of the night can keep you restless and unable to fall asleep as easily just because you're on alert - anticipating when it's time to "go". And, above all, once you've had to get up to make that pit stop, it can sometimes be nearly impossible for sooo many of you to get back to sleep. We don't want that for you.
Make sure to listen to what YOU need, not just what someone else tells you is good or bad to do before bed - including us! There are countless guides out there telling you what to do and not to do at night. Whether it's the ones that say don't eat before bed, to never sleep with a TV on, not to drink ANY caffeine 12 hours (or whatever arbitrary number) before bed, to never exercise or be active at night (or the reverse!), or any other seemingly sound instruction, no rule is gospel. That includes ours!
Some can drink coffee RIGHT up until the second they lay down without the slightest disturbance. Others require a TV on. Someone else may not be able to even tolerate laying down without having a huge mug of their favorite beverage first. Listen to your needs and know that your body may be more or less sensitive to certain things than others'. No matter what someone else insists the root of your sleep problems is, they might not be right. Only you can know that.
We provide suggestions based on what we've seen in so very many survivors, ourselves included, but wholly recognize that it won't apply to each and every one of you. Feel free to pass on those that don't! You know you better than we (or anyone else out there) ever could. Try out new things - as you may be surprised by their effectiveness or your ability to adjust to something you thought you'd hate but turned into real help - but, ultimately, do what your body needs.
Invest in nicer pillows, throw blankets, or comfort items. Not only do some of these items make your room LOOK nicer and more inviting, they are actually comforting to your physical body and mind together. They make you eager to lay down in your now very-gorgeous, soothing bed. The sense of being able to flop down on pure comfort, or cozy up in the softest, snuggliest of blankets, just automatically makes your body want to relax and let its guard down for the night.
Don't have much money? Sometimes something as simple as buying some extra stuffing for 3 bucks on Amazon (especially if you have, or want to buy, pillows that zip close) that you can use to fluff your pillows up to your own desired squishiness can make a dramatic difference in the coziness of your bed. Sure beats a flat and sad pillow. ;) Or, just choosing to go in on one velvety soft blanket that all but swallows you up, and is only yours, can bring so much gentle peace.
Pajamas. In the same spirit, maybe get yourself some nice pajamas or underclothes for sleep -- something you can't wait to get into and that immediately makes you feel ready for bed. Ragged T-shirts and basic cotton bottoms with paint on them can get the job done, but if you're really struggling to sleep, sometimes just taking a little more interest in you and what you wear can be a game-changer. It's also about self-care. Not only do you just feel snuggly in your nice, new PJs, you also feel taken care of. ...reminded that you are worth the rest you are about to get.
You are worth more than just that disheveled tee and holey pants you've been wearing for years once they were no longer presentable in public. If you have an impossible time feeling motivated to lay down, a nice new set of PJs can make you a bit more eager to get started just so you can be in those comfy clothes sooner. (As an aside, they don't even have to be ~fancy~ pajamas by any stretch. Sometimes just getting something new is enough. It feels fresh. It feels different. It feels special. Too many of us have been in the same haggard jammies for yeeears. The lifetimes we’ve lived in them can bring reminders of the past, too. A simple item or two can spruce things up a lot and remind you that you deserve to be comfortable. You are worthy of good sleep.)
Linen sprays or fragrance/oils. If you aren't a fancy schmancy homemaker, you might not have known there even is such a thing as linen sprays! But, boy, are they a thing! There are so many fragrances you can put on your linens that just call to you - inviting you to breathe them in deeply and melt in deeper as you exhale. Isn't that what we all want to feel when we hit the bed for the first time after a long day?
Find a fragrance that does that for you. The same is true for essential oils or other items that produce fragrance. Whether you believe in the calming properties of various essential oils or not isn’t important, the fragrances alone can just take you to a nice, relaxed state that speaks directly to you and your needs. …while also being a grounding presence that keeps you in the here and now.
Light a candle a bit before bed that will leave your room with a pleasant aroma. We don't want you to leave candles lit while you sleep, but sometimes lighting a candle for an hour or so before bed and blowing it out still leaves the room billowing with a fragrance you love. This is not only calming, pleasant, and/or inviting (just like above), it can be really grounding as a strong scent that lingers should you re-wake.
Consider purchasing a tiny child's stuffed animal or baby blanket - even as an adult. It may seem silly, but sometimes that younger you who feels so afraid of sleep can feel at ease by these little gestures. You're never too old, too cool, too tough, or too anything for a stuffed animal or small blanket. And, if you have internal parts, this simple "gift" can bring such wonderful comfort to you all.
Try color breathing before bed or once you lay down. This is a wonderful way to calm down. Additional breathing techniques, especially those combined with visual imagery, may be equally as helpful if you have one you really like. You can also create your own technique! Yes, you are completely allowed to just make something up. Not every breathing technique has to come from a manual, guide, doctor, or study. Sometimes you just know what settles you best.
Progressive muscle relaxation. Here is one example, but there are many - some even come with audio recordings to lead you through.
Healing light/healing pool imagery - especially for pain. Healing light and healing pool, along with some other similar imagery-based techniques, can be critical skills in relieving physical pain that could be the root of what's keeping you up. You can read about those here. They can also be so satisfying and relaxing for mental distress, upsetting emotions, or just the natural tension we all carry.
Consider asking your therapist to make you a voice recording. They aren't hard to do anymore, as just about every smartphone has a record feature that can be easily sent through email (or even text if it's short enough). The recording could be a guided imagery, various grounding statements, or just generalized comforting thoughts to lead you to sleep. Hearing them from your therapist (or a loved one) can offer an added layer of security and calm that many of us can benefit from as we try to rest our eyes.
Positive reinforcements and gratitudes. We mentioned something similar in our Nighttime 101 Guide, but that was a bit more specific to journaling practices before bed. This is something you can do in your mind alone. If you are particularly restless, in an anxious or upset place, or just can't stop the recursive self-shaming your mind wants to do as you rethink the day - consider redirecting your thoughts to name 5 positive things about the day. They don't have to be groundbreaking, but they're there. You'll find them even on the worst of days.
Similarly, you can try thinking of 5 or 10 things you're thankful for - in general or just for that day. Others may want to pick 3-5 things you like about yourself or that you did right/well that day. Challenging other cognitive distortions may be an area someone else needs to focus on today. Whatever you need most, just be sure to flip the script on that rough tone of thought that was finding you and you'll be grateful for how much calmer and sleepier you feel. It may even improve your dream quality.
Do some light stretching before bed. Tension is a jerk. It causes pain, increases anxiety, steepens depressive feelings, and just plainly makes us miserable. Some slow stretching can get the day’s excess energy that’s still zinging through your nervous system out — while soothing and calming your body down for the night. It can loosen stiff muscles, un-pinch painful spots, and send fresh blood throughout your whole system so that your body can more effectively heal and repair itself during your period of rest.
Temperature, pets, and outside influences. There are so many things outside of our own selves that keep us up but that we also can’t control. So, anything we can do to tend to those things before laying down is a great step. Double-check that the temperature will still be comfortable as night falls, your pets are where they need to be (with you or closed away in their sleeping areas), family members are aware you're trying to turn down, your phone's notifications are silenced, any TV timers are set, you have any extra blankets or socks you may need ready and in reach, your contacts are out, mouthguard is washed, makeup is off, meds are taken, teeth are brushed, etc, etc.
Double-check all the things that could make you have to get up after you've already snuggled in (or worse, already fallen asleep). No one likes having to get up after they've already experienced that first wonderful sigh climbing into bed. The second time around is never nearly as satisfying, and if you were already asleep, getting back to sleep can be a nightmare on its own. Let’s try to prevent that!
Wash your sheets frequently. Simple, simple. Little is more inviting than fresh sheets to make your body feel peaceful and happy when you lay down. Crumbs, dirt, or "stale" sheets aren't exactly the most welcoming invitation for your dreams and sleep. Wash 'em. You'll be glad you did.
Consider buying a therapeutic pillow or (if you have the finances for it) a new mattress. This is certainly not in the realm of possibilities for everyone - and it's something most of us have all heard plenty of times. ...but sometimes the solution to poor sleep really does lie within your physical mattress and pillow. Given that so many survivors with complex trauma are also sufferers of chronic pain, a proper mattress and pillow that supports your head and neck sufficiently may be what you truly need.
Invest in some soft and pliable earbuds or earplugs. For many, any outside noise at all will wake them up, startle them into symptoms, or keep them from sleeping at all. Earplugs can be either a savior or deeply unsettling (if all you hear is yourself breathing in your ears, or your pulse, it’s not exactly helpful for the anxious). But, many headphones aren't comfortable to sleep in. There are a few companies that make super soft and flimsy earbuds that have little-to-no hard plastic or metal inside your ear. Some even have fairly soft connecting pieces, that way when you lay on your side, it doesn’t hurt your ears.
We know that Samsung makes a few, but there are most assuredly other companies out there, too. This would not only allow you to listen to music/podcasts/recordings/white noise without bothering anyone else (particularly if you have a partner or have to sleep in a more public area for any reason) - but for those really sensitive to outside noise, earbuds ensure that you hear nothing else. The sounds you want to hear just get injected into your ears, filling your whole head with goodness, while the outside worlds gets effectively shut out - leaving you free to get the sleep you need. We know some don't mind sleeping on even the hard earbuds or earplugs (and we recommend giving both a go if you don't mind them!) - but if you can't take the discomfort, spending a little extra money for the softer earbuds might let you sleep through the night, both pain- and distraction-free.
Look into information regarding blue light or the effect electronics can have on your sleep cycle. There is now a ton of literature on the way the 'blue light' from our electronics can affect brain activity, but more importantly, how it can alter the cadence of our sleep cycle. There are various ways to turn this off in our devices. If this is something that concerns you, is something you want to learn more about, or is something you just want to learn how to turn off in your personal gadgets, you shouldn't have to google too far before finding what you need. It could make a difference - particularly if you're someone who is more sensitive to it than you knew!
Get browser extensions, or use the installed features, on your personal devices that disallow using certain apps/websites at certain times. Ha, yes, they exist out there! Some even come on the device itself now. And there are plenty of them - for both computer and mobile - that are designed to meet your specific needs. These can be extremely helpful in getting you off youtube/social media/gaming websites if you just can't resist or are using them as a distraction to keep you from sleeping.
Many allow you to set the times you need it run, like an "every day at this time" function, while others require you to turn it on when you need/want it in use - setting a timer for how long until you’re allowed back. Some are even created to ensure that even if you un- and re-install it, the timer will still be in effect until it runs out. ...so you can't cheat by just getting rid of it! If you find yourself glued to your phone or computer when you should be sleeping (or working!), you may need to look into these extensions and apps that exist to help you out here.
Better waking up. If you can wake up easier and more smoothly, you are much more likely to be ready for sleep when bedtime rolls around. If you have trouble with sleeping TOO long, ignoring your alarms, or returning to bed during the day, that will inevitably disrupt your sleep rhythm and leave you wide awake come nighttime. So, to target better waking:
Set alarms that have music that MAKE you want to get up - invigorating fun music. Something that makes you happy. We don't like the idea of obnoxious, annoying alarms because that just puts you in a bad mood the very moment you open your eyes. ...or rather, before you've even had a chance to open them yet! That doesn't make anyone want to be awake. Start your day off right with something that makes you happy. Change it often so that happy-fun-new-alarm-you-love doesn't turn into one you hate! No one likes when a good song gets ruined! ;)
Put your phone across the room so you have to get up to turn it off. Or, incentivize. If you get up and stay up, you get to have x treat. Remind yourself that if you're truly that exhausted by late afternoon, you are allowed take a short nap then. ...but not until you've given the day your best shot for a good while. You'll be surprised how ready to get up you actually were!
Just. Get. Started. The hardest part of any task - absolutely any task whatsoever, including something as seemingly simple as heading to bed - is just getting started. Once you get up and begin your nighttime routine before bed, you'll be baffled by just how ready for sleep you really were. ...no matter how sure you were that you were totally wired and sleep was nowhere in your near future. Just. get. started. Once you mentally "turn off" and start heading for the pillow, you'll be consistently impressed almost every time at just how much your body was craving the collapse. ...even though it was only mere seconds ago you were convinced otherwise.
Give it a shot anyway. Sufferers of chronic sleep disturbances are no stranger to the losing game of just not being able to sleep, no matter how hard they try. You can do everything right, but still be awake for ages after you lay down. After experiencing this so much over time, we can convince ourselves so confidently each night that "it's just not gonna happen tonight" - because for so much of our lives it really hasn't.
But this kneejerk response to how we THINK sleep will go can lead that to become our reality as we stay up far longer than necessary and refuse to even entertain the idea of settling down. ...all because "we just know". But our confirmation bias - looking for only the signs that prove we were right - can actually influence what our body believes, and lead it to respond accordingly. We can become the reason we're still up, because we just decided how our body was feeling and it followed suit. And, sad to say, we're often wrong. Had we just given it a shot anyway, we would've actually been fast asleep by now.
So, what's the worst that happens if you do give it a shot? You get nice and ready for bed and it's a no-go. Oh well. So you get up or do something in bed and try again later. But at least you're now cozier in your PJs and physically ready for bed. Then, the moment you are sleepy, you can just turn down right away instead of having to "wake yourself up" just to go get ready for bed — additionally running the risk of missing that window of opportunity we all know exists. But hey, the other possibility is: you might actually crash. You've been trained your whole life to ignore your body. You'd be amazed (and impressed) by how exhausted and ready for sleep it can actually be without you realizing it. You are very rarely going to regret trying, but you almost always regret waiting too long. ..especially the once you wake the next morning, utterly dragging yourself across the floor!
Finally, we can't forget about things like journaling, internal communication, grounding, medication, and more (each discussed in our first post)! The suggestions here may be a bit easier to apply, but the skills there will be relevant and useful throughout your entire life - no matter the home you live in or the path life has taken you. Give those a look-see and don't forget their importance either :)
Some thoughts for those with DID/OSDD systems specifically:
Put the kiddos to bed first. For survivors with young child parts, the nighttime is often the most difficult. But, they’re also very young. They may be used to going to sleep before the adults, want a bedtime story first, or would benefit from a corrective, safe, and comforting tuck-in. You can try doing this internally with older caretaker parts on the job, in your mind yourself (either earlier in the night or once you lay down), or out in the body through the actions you take just for them. Maybe that’s reading a real children’s book to them first, putting on lullaby music or a movie just for them, or even using soothing items for tiny children just before laying down (like cuddling baby blankets, using a sucker/paci, or snuggling a stuffed animal). Just be sure your most adult self is forward before you truly drift off to sleep! We want to be sure your body and mind stay their safest after giving those kiddos what they need.
Change the time of internal clocks. For some survivors, there is a specific time of night they routinely find themselves waking up in distress - or, perhaps they just can’t fall asleep at all a certain time has passed. In survivors with histories of organized abuse, they may even have parts with strict rules that tell them to wake up, switch, or perform a task at specific times of the night. If that sounds possible for you, you can always alter the internal clocks instead.
You can try pushing them ahead or behind an hour. Or, have it slow to a crawl just before that critical time - long enough to allow you a few hours’ rest - and then have it zoom forward to the correct time when it’s time to wake. There will likely be some part inside who is capable of managing this task and they may even feel really important for getting to do so. Get creative! The clock itself hasn’t done anything to you, so it no longer gets to have power over you and your lives. You can control it now :)
Temporarily reverse day|night shifts. Similarly, for survivors of organized abuse (and even some whose trauma was not systematic), there may be a harsh division between parts who are active during Day versus Night hours. If your system was conditioned to be active or perform jobs in the evening, sleep may feel all but impossible now on a traditional work schedule.
Internally, there may be dials, levers or other controls that mandate or signify when the switch from Day to Night is to occur. So, it may be possible for someone inside to temporarily switch things to “Day” and let you just “take a nap”. It’s just, y’know, an 8-hour nap ;) Then, when you wake for the day, you can either choose to switch it back to Night and utilize the most wakeful and energized members of your system, or leave it as the real daytime that it is because you’ve found that still works for you all. All you have to know is that you all are in control of the levers today. If doing so will help you rest, that’s the most loving and healthy thing you can do for yourselves.
Simply say goodnight! You’d be surprised how much a simple acknowledgment and kind gesture of saying ‘goodnight’ to internal parts inside can do! Create a little role call in your mind, add a little g’night message to it, and take that time as you close your eyes for sleep. You may even choose to pop inside, peek your head in their respective rooms, and say it that way quickly, too. But, sometimes a little telegraph in words through the mind is enough! Some validation to feel seen, a little “I didn’t forget about you!”, can make parts feel good—helping them close their eyes, too!
Now it's your turn!
Because so many of these are much simpler options, we’re certain many of you have countless ideas just like 'em! Tell us, and all the other survivors reading, what you do to get some sleep! What's the one thing you can't get to sleep without, or has made the biggest difference for you in your journey for better rest?
