[QUOTE="keista, post: 453809, member: 11965"] She was teaching him her own coping mechanism. Personally I sleep with the TV on too. It's not because I'm afraid of being alone, but because I have racing thoughts at night (anxiety, Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD)), as do both my girls. I find if I put on a DVD that I love and am familiar with, I can focus on that until I fall asleep. I know it inside and out, so I don't have to think, so the brain gets to relax, but at the same time, I have something to focus on and so it keeps the racing thoughts out. [/QUOTE]
