Has anyone else implemented CBTI, and stimulus control , with a 6 hour sleep window, and initially got 3-4 hours sleep, but after 5-6 days only get 1-2 hours fir the next 5 days and counting? Sleep is worse instead of better ?

Hey Brad!

Glad to see you’re exploring those techniques! When I had insomnia, I also experienced fragmented sleep when I was implementing a sleep window but I realized that beginning CBT-I can be like starting a new exercise regimen. Initially, you might struggle to stay dedicated, feeling fatigued, experiencing soreness, and questioning the effectiveness of your efforts. There might even be some temporary setbacks in your sleep patterns. If you remain committed to the techniques, you’ll begin to see consistent results from them.
