Hope I'm not posting too late, I've been avoiding here lately while I was EMDRing my way through some pretty rough memories.
I have a total of 7 blankets on my bed at all times so I can snuggle into them and feel really warm and cozy. I bought a "king size" pillow and use my imagination to "think" my best friend into bed with me (he knows about this and actually thinks it's cute), tricking my mind that someone good and protective is here rather than someone hurtful (kinda like a good flashback?). I also walk around my room before bed and check any place someone could hide in to reassure me that no one bad is there. Oh, and I sleep with my phone in hand on bad nights so I can call/text without having to try to find it first.
