I have had a lot of trouble sleeping lately, and I have found that this leads to bad things.  I am learning, that it is stress, to my body & mind, that causes my psychosis.
     Just recently, I had been awake for about 40 hours.  I was so tired and also sub-consciously stressed out.  I tried to go to sleep, but my mind was wandering off, on it's own.  I found myself terrified that we would be murdered in our sleep by machete-wielding assassins.  I did not sleep all night long, as I waited for my house to get broken into, and my murderers to strike.
    I did not want to wake my husband, though, now, I realize, that I really should have woke him up and expressed my fears.  He has a way of calming me.  
    But once again, I hid my fears and emotions, because, honestly, deep down, I knew, that it was "crazy".    I keep telling myself, that I must talk about my feelings, but I wonder if people really understand.
     When I experience paranoia and psychosis, my "fight or flight" instincts take over.  I become so terrified of unreal things.
     Yet, if you just happened to meet me, you'd  never expect my mind of having such glitches.
