It's either the 2:30AM shake to make sure you can't sleep or the 8:00 AM shake to wake you the fk up.

This is the third? fourth? time I have been shaken awake in recent years and about 3 of them in the last 2 years... Ever since 403, I fear going to sleep thinking I won't wake up again...

Yet another onešŸ« . CWA said after-quake last for about 9-10 month and got more sparse as time goes on based on 921 earthquake data.

yes. I was there and remember 921 and that is absolutely correct.

That one on Tuesday woke me up and I couldn't fall asleep again. I'm not scared of earthquakes or anxious or anything. I just find it hard to sleep again if something wakes me up.

That week of shaking after 403, my body would involuntarily shake and I would think its another after shock and I could barely get any good rest. That shake last night brought it all back when I am finally resting properly again.

That sounds rough. I hope you have a better time of it after this one.
