You don’t know what you’ve got till it’s gone. Wise words from Joni Mitchell that you might find in her famous song Big Yellow Taxi. People who have never had problems sleeping have absolutely no idea how difficult life becomes when you can’t sleep properly or well enough. It’s literally a nightmare, only you're awake, and it seems like it lasts forever.

Who knows, maybe this information will help your life at some point.
