Hello everyone,
From the book Choose Your Story, Change Your Life by Kindra Hall.
I have a friend who struggles with sleep. She can get to sleep fine, and she’s also good at staying asleep throughout the night. Her problem, actually, isn’t sleep at all; it’s waking up. Every morning she jolts awake at 3:30 or 4:00 a.m. and can’t go back to sleep. She’ll lie in bed for hours, in pitch darkness, holding her eyes closed, willing her mind to silence the sudden, unwanted chatter—and then begrudgingly get up to face the day at 6:00 or 7:00 a.m.
It was extremely disturbing to her. She was literally losing sleep over—well, losing sleep.
Having been through my own sleep story, I asked my friend if she was tired throughout the day. “No,” she said. “Not excessively so. I just get up so early.”
Does " Having been through my own sleep story" mean since/as/because I went through my own sleep story?
Or does it mean having told her my own sleep story?
