      Hi there

      I have suffered on & off with insomnia for 4 years currently having a bad time.( can’t get off to sleep can take hours ) . for me it’s the panick / hyper arousal , heart beating very very fast , I know it’s the fear of being awake lying there terrified with a beating heart. The fear of NOT sleeping. If only I could try and be – friend wakefulness by doing something nice to associate wakefulness as NOT a threat , does this make sense ? I have heard it’s meant to work ? This reverse way of looking at it ? As opposed to sleep hygiene which for me made me worse !! Any advice peeps please ? I do not have anxiety in any other areas of my life only when I am struggling to get off to sleep.

      Thanks
