      Hi everyone,
      my name is Cesare and i am from italy.I first started to experience insomnia a year and half ago when i was about to open my new private activity and there was a lot of anxiety around it. since then things are stable meaning that i can’t sleep very well and i would like to improve it. in these months i’ve experienced sometimes the effect of building a regular and strong sleep drive but then i don’t know why, probably for my laziness in bringing forward the treatment, i stepped back on the same condintions. I would like to learn and hear from you how to sleep better.

      thank you everyone who is going to read this post.
      Cesare

        Welcome to the forum, @Cesare!

        It’s completely normal to experience a poor night’s sleep when you begin new life events, such as starting a new private activity. Stress, a new career, moving to a new city, a new baby, etc activates our arousal system and can cause sleep disruption but as soon as the trigger passes, normal sleep patterns return. However, some people experience continued sleep problems because they attempt to fix a poor night’s sleep and that perpetuates the issue. Any attempts to make sleep occur instead of allowing it to naturally occur often makes the sleep issue worse.

        Have you had a chance to read Martin’s article about cognitive and behavioral therapy for insomnia located here: https://insomniacoach.com/cognitive-behavioral-therapy-insomnia/ In the article, Martin explains how insomnia can occur and some of the evidence-based techniques to address the problem.

        Hope that helps!

            I would ask that we keep posts in English, where possible! For those interested in a rough Google-powered translation of the above post, I’ve pasted it below:

            Hi Cesare, I’m Italian too. I did cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia after I started suffering from it in May. Now I’m much better and I can sleep well. If you have trouble sleeping I recommend you do it too.

              Excuse me Martin, you are completely right, but since I have the page translated into Italian it came spontaneously to answer in my language. I still apologize to everyone.
