There are lots of white noise apps. However, I bought an actual white noise machine. They are small, cheap, and work great (especially when you have to work nights and sleep during the day).

I downloaded a white noise app that I use when away from my real sound machine.

Good, hard exercise, no booze (alcohol), and I read the Bible and pray. But I'm getting older, so playing strenuously with the grand-children is my 'hard exercise' and the most fun and influential fun. If PTSD, recommend a good military therapist -- you're NOT crazy, but none of us is designed for war -- and good, well-behaving (gotten through the worst of it) military/post-military friends can provide the venue for talking out so you can get some rest. My father was WWII Army Inf (Pacific) and roughly 30 yrs after the war had a wonderful sobbing episode followed by more than 24 hrs sleep - 'wonderful' because that episode helped him heal some more; several months before he died at 85 y/o he and I were chatting when he stopped, looked out the window at (later explained) 2 men and 1 woman in "business" attire who asked him if he had liked the feeling of killing a Japanese teen-aged soldier, eye-to-eye -- of course, he replied (I could hear his response), "No, of course not. [That soldier] was a human being." On and off since Vietnam I've had episodes, some sobbing, some wanted to hide, and violent dreams -- they've tapered off over the years, but I still adhere to the discipline in the first sentence. Via con Dios - Go with God.

I take my sleep meds then talk on the phone for an hour until I am ready to sleep.
