Hi,
I have been in an acute insomnia stage on & off for close to a year. I’ve tried CBTi but it made me anxious about following the “rules.” So I’m doing CBTi “light” and it’s better. I recently discovered the DARE book and app. It is helping a bit but it’s sometimes overkill or irrelevant since my only anxiety is around sleep and a little around health. Anyway, on the DARE app today they suggested finding a buddy to support each other in implementing DARE, so I thought this forum might be a good place to look for a buddy who might be facing similar issues.
BTW, if you haven’t found the DARE book yet, here it is, I recommend it.
Hello! I’m just a bit curious here. How exactly does having a DARE buddy help you cure yourself of an anxiety centred around sleep? 🤔
Good question Chee! I have found it helpful in other realms of life to have someone to lend mutual encouragement, things that have worked for me, share victories, and even vent sometimes. I know you’ve posted frequently here about your success, but accepting being awake at night isn’t coming easily to me!
