How is your new face aging? Do you have to keep going in for more surgeries and checkups specifically face transplant related?

What has been the most irritating thing about recovery?

That would be hard to get used to, and an unexpected side affect

I was sexually assaulted by a family member right as I was falling asleep when I was 15. My body remembers this and will not let me fall asleep or stay asleep all night. Falling asleep around people triggers bad memories sometimes, and I dont like people looking at me if I am asleep. I am in therapy, but what could I do to help myself more? I do deep breathing exercises but I am too anxious to fall asleep without taking my medicine. I take it every night now because sleep is so important to me.
