There’s no evidence that insomnia causes health issues.. It’s mind over matter.. Since the lockdown I’ve been getting 1-3 hours of sleep a night.. Some nights none.. Some nights a nit more.. Point is, I’d see health issues if that were the case.. I’m still able to work out and play drums, etc.. Do I wish I got more sleep? Sure.. Has it stressed me out a lot? Yes.. But am I dying because of it? No, and neither are you.
Welcome to the forum, ytviews123! As pointed out by @DrummerFrank, the good news is that there is no evidence that chronic insomnia causes any health problem whatsoever!
It is completely understandable why you would believe this, though — since the media is full of misleading stories about the health issues associated with insufficient sleep.
You might find this podcast episode helpful: Busting sleep and insomnia myths with clinical psychologist and behavioral sleep medicine specialist Dr. Jade Wu.
I hope this helps!
