      I have a fundamental question I need to have clarified: I think to have read that CBT-I can/should be done if have certain mental illnesses like an anxiety disorder, depression or OCD.

      Is this correct? If yes, what are your experiences with this?

      Thanks a lot in advance

        Studies have found that CBT-I can be helpful for insomnia and conditions such as depression or anxiety that might exist alongside insomnia. This would be a discussion to have with your doctor though.

          I knew you would say this 🙂 Problem is, “my” doctors here have no clue at all what CBT-I is. And when I tell, they just give an opinion based on “nothing” – they could just as good roll a dice.
