    Hey Czor… keep in mind that anxiety can cause the strangest sensations in the body. But these are only sensations.The most important thing is: they are not physiological. Nothing is physiologically wrong with you. Keep this in mind. Nothing can happen. Be happy that you can fall back asleep. This is so great and more important. You should be happy about this : )
    Go to a doctor for ears, throat nose and if everything is okay, you should just don’t care.
    What about taking a spray with sea water for only a few nights? They should not become a sleep effort ; )

    P.S. I don’t do any sleep efforts. I don’t take any meds.

    Dear Czor, this is the most beautiful message I”ve ever red. Yes. I also wish every insomniac to recover. This is on the one hand the most horrible thing that can happen to one and on the other hand the most stupid thing on earth. I can not believe that mother nature allows something like this to happen. I mean, to be afraid of wakefullness. I mean. It’s something different if you have worries or divorce or something difficult in life that keeps you from sleeping. But anxiety of wakefullness.

    Czor.
    May I ask you something?
    I know that insomnia can not harm our health. I know it’s a perceived threat. And so on…
    But I can not stop thinking about the fact that I have this issue. It’s constantly on my mind. Only this one thing: I have this sleep problem. How can I get rid of it. And I know I can not recover while I think of it. Only who stops giving it attention and is able to forget can recover.

    Sending warm regards

    Dear Czor, here where I live in Europe it is now 7.00 am.
    Your message comes like a present. I had 4 nights where I now slept 4 or 5 hours. Last night it was only 3 or so.
    I was so discouraged. Reading your message gives me strenght. Thank you so much. All the best

    Hi Czor,

    thank you so so much for your motivating sentences.

    I suffer really from sever insomnia. I usually fall asleep soon. And I go to bed when I feel ready and sleepy.
    I sleep 1. 2. 3 or 4 hours. Sometimes in a row or interrupted. I am never able to sleep more.

    My insomnia is anxiety rooted.
    The thing is, that I think of it 24/7 … even at night.
    When I am awake at night I only think about how to get rid of it. If I will ever get rid of it. And how to fix it soon.

    I think of it every second. Really. Every second. Therefore I think that I will not be able to recover. I even think about it while I am talking to someone, driving, showering, cooking, peeing… non stop. : (
