Man, I got TS D,OH in October of course and on Nov. 6th I got hospitalized for palpitations (thought I was having a heart attack) to which I woke up to.

Ever since then, sub-consciously I guess I was afraid of sleeping or had a fear of dying in my sleep or having the same freaked out feeling!!

I'd wake myself up every hour, sometimes ever 15 minutes with a high heart rate and wake up in sweat. I was thinking WTF. I was like a zombie during the day, so tired and out of it. Being scared at night and worried about sleep. Something that should be so simple.

I went back and listend to Darkness, Oh Hell and found it hard to listen to! The part about the bed and all it's horror had a totally new meaning for me and I could relate but hated it. Then I got put on Xanax and Ambien in which you wrote about too. I too started having weird dreams and nightmares.

And the pills were taking awhile to work and I thought of Time In Heaven...and those lyrics were tough to take in too. Cuz some pills just don't work or stop working.

My sleep is getting better and I'm mostly taking OTC **** and not so much Ambien/Xanax. Heard about Trazadone too.

Anyway, don't know if you'll read this but did your sleep get better? How long did it take? I'm anxiously awaiting the night when I can just sleep by myself without any problems just like I used to 2 months ago.

It's weird how a band can write a record that it's so close to home or yourself, good job! lol
