Hi @Martin Reed following on from my post. I started some self CBT-I at the end of Feb and got back to normal sleep within 3-4 weeks. This has lasted until now and I had one bad night and seem to have gone back to my previous state and not being able to sleep. I am starting a new project at work and started to feel anxious that it would potentially disrupt my sleep and then my anxiety kicked in and the arousal is there again.
It seems that i get anxious about an upcoming event and whether it will affect my sleep again, which triggers the anxiety again.
I would like to know your thoughts on this. Do you see this as a pure anxiety issue which is not really treatable by CBT-I? Perhaps it was because I did the CBT-I myself and focused on Sleep Restriction and Stimulus Control, but not as much on the cognitive side?
