Will I ever be OK? That’s what I asked myself the time I had Insomnia which lasted about 2months. But today I want to testify that through Insomnia coach program I am OK.
This problem started 7 months ago with a simple nose block and I remember one night my nose was blocked I woke up terrified and shaking, I didn’t know what that was but now I surely know it was a panic attack. So I decided to see the Dr who prescribed sleeping pills instead of dealing with my nose problem. I was given sleeping pills for 7 days but on the 3rd day I decided to stop, shockingly I couldn’t put myself to sleep.
I got very very anxious went to another Dr they prescribed more sleeping pills. This put me under a lot of anxiety that I thought how am I ever going to sleep by myself. Each time I tried to cut off the sleeping pills It became hard to sleep by myself. This persisted for 2 months.
I got on the 2week program with Insomnia coach. I learnt a lot about sleep but still my problem didn’t resolve. I then took a leap of faith to enroll for the paid program. I had lost all hope, I was very skeptical because I tried all that I could to help myself.
I thought I never stop the sleeping pills and will have to depend on them for the rest of my life. So I just enrolled with that doubt just to see how it goes.
I was mostly worried about the sleeping pills I wanted to stop the so badly to prove to myself that indeed I’m normal and haven’t lost my ability to sleep.
The 1st week of the program was good, I was still on sleeping pills , still skeptical etc. I went into the 2nd week still feeling hopeless but this was the week where my recovery journey started. To my surprise I stopped using sleeping pills on this week , It was so amazing I never thought this day would come.
Ever since then I never used sleeping pills ever again, I learnt a lot about sleep itself and those teachings made a powerful impact in the way I was thinking.
Of course some days I get difficult nights especially when travelling but insomnia isn’t that scary monster anymore.
Thanks a Lot to Martin Reed for providing a powerful tool!
