Ok… let me explain this kind of insomnia I was having long time ago. The first time I had Insomnia I wasn’t able to sleep even 1 second, I mean… ZERO sleep.
Ok… the first time having insomnia was ”normal”, I mean… I wasn’t able to fall sleep cause I didn’t feel tired or sleepy. But the second day I was very, very, very anxious, and I was stressed too much. So… when the night came, I was tired and sleepy, so I said ”Ok, letsss sleeep again” But….. a new enemy came: Hypnic Jerks. My Hypnic jerks consisted in little Twitches in my hand, in my arm, in my legs, my head, my fingers , little jumps when I was in bed. All that happens only when I was about to drifted off… some people calls that ”Sleep Starts”.
So, I said in my mind ”What!? Now I m feeling tired and sleepy but can’t sleep because of these little twitches”? I was feeling very bad because that suitation, and I remember that
it took me time until finally sleep… like 2 hours fighting with these Hypnic Jerks.So… that hypnic jerks happened to me to much until I knew the problem was the EXTREME anxiety and Extreme STRESS. To that people that is having this kind of Insomnia, my reccomendation is simple: STOP that anxiety and stress cause is causing that Hypnic Jerks. Yeah… When I stop my stress and anxiety, the hypnic jerks didn t go away the next day, it took me time and gradually the Hypnic Jerks dissapeared.
Sorry for my bad English…it s not my first language, but I hope this help people suffering with this kind of insomnia.
