[QUOTE="buddy, post: 509955, member: 12886"] Q has had rare sleep issues. Now they are starting again and I think the reasons are anxiety/worries like what you are describing. He has a hard time falling asleep and the worries are expanding to wild animals being around (keeps him from running away though, lol) no matter how many times I tell him there are no animals around that are not afraid of us. We dont live in the jungle or even the woods. He can't seem to settle his brain down. He will then say he is hungry or has to use the bathroom just to avoid being in bed. I got his AVE (audio visual entrainment) unit last week. He told ME that the lady told him it will relax him so I said great lets hook it up and I put it on the sleep brain waves... he was asleep two nights in a row within 10 minutes and the program goes on for 20-40 depending on the level you select. I was shocked. I am sure partly HE is convinced it will work, and partly it works. I am putting the instrumental music on too so I am hoping the same as what IC said, that the music will be associated with sleep and just keeping it on the loop will help him stay in that state.
