hey all
I found Martin’s free course, podcasts and you tube videos very useful and it helped me through one stage of insomnia. Its now back and im considering doing the 6 week course…BUT…

Martin has mentioned a few times the perils of spending too much time researching sleep and trying to fix it. This makes a lot of sense and im definitelty guilty as charged- i do tend to over obsess and get involved with trying to find solutions online.
Isn’t there a danger of also doing too much of that embarking on a 6 week course? Wouldn’t it potentially cause us to put much time and energy on it, especially with its seperate exclusive forum and especially as we have spent the money.
Not trying to be a smart ass, just genuinely seeing the paradox and really keen to make some progress in my insomnia issues

Do what is best for you. I know some people have had insomnia for years, some of them says 20 years. I had two years of insomnia before I found the 2 week free course but what a difference it made. I learned to quit worrying about sleep and know now it wont kill me, just go on with life and sleep will come eventually. I also know I will have bad nights from time to time. Martin says we have bad days and we have bad nights. Thankfully I have not had many bad nights now for the past year. At one point I thought I would never sleep again but Martin let me know I am not alone and that yes I would sleep. If I dont sleep good one night, I dont get all crazy about it now, I know my sleep drive will catch up with me and I will sleep.
