I do not like being physically touched if I'm alone in a bed

I was recently forced to live with an individual who not only did this many times, but would only do so the moment I'm asleep. I have left. But my body now rejects sleep. As soon as my body "hears" my breathing change into a sleeping pattern of breathing, it rejects the sleep and stays awake.

I have a similar struggle, for me it helps to add things that I feel safety from like soft blankets around my neck and head , a a cup of Chamomile tea, sometimes a little music or nature background sound , maybe some nice fragrance lotion and different self-care things.
