I have an Emma Original Pillow that I've had for three years and the support is basically non-existent now, so I wake up in the night and end up with neck and shoulder pain.

I've tried a Panda Hybrid pillow and a Simba Hybrid firm pillow but neither were any good to me. The Panda was too low for sleeping on my back and the Simba didn't have the support I needed. If I was purely a side sleeper it would be probably be okay, but of course I have to be awkward.

I generally prefer memory foam pillows, but it's been so long since I've had a good night's sleep, I'm willing to try anything.

I switched to a buckwheat hull pillow . It's ideal for me. I can adjust the shape, then it locks up as soon as I put my head down. I can sleep on my side or back on it, but I often prefer a small rice-filled neck pillow when I'm on my back. I don't use a pillow when I lay on my belly.

Love mine. It took a while to get used to but I struggle sleeping without it now.

Never realized how much I was fighting with “soft” pillows to get the support I need.
