    Hi Martin and thanks for your support.

    I’ve certainly found the daily emails from you helpful and it’s made me feel less stressed about getting sleep.

    I did invest in a weighted blanket this week which has so far helped me get off to sleep quicker although I’m still only getting on average 4 hours.

    I have tried CBT but not really got on with it although this was couple of years ago and I was in a different frame of mind, so I may well try it again.

    In the meantime, I thank you once again for your support. ☺

    Hi there

    I’m the same as you unfortunately. I can’t sleep during the day to try and catch up on missed night time sleep. My brain just doesn’t shut off.

    I’m now averaging on 3 hours sleep nightly and still working full time although I have no idea how I function to be honest with you.

    I’ve tried so many things go over the years to combat this debilitating insomnia, even a course of hypnosis but to no avail.

    I really envy my husband who falls asleep as soon as his head hits the pillow and would love to be like that. Instead I just lie there next to him listening to him having a lovely long sleep!
