It wasn't until rather recently that I realized it was more of a matter of the company I kept. If I had known people like the friends I have now back then, I probably would have felt differently.
If you have trouble sleeping through the night, though, I happen to know of a few tea blends that may help to put your mind at ease. I'd be happy to share them with you, if you feel as though you might benefit from that.
