Insomnia resource - Dawnstar - 11-21-2018

I posted this on another thread, but thought it’d be more visible in a main thread.

This link is a series of printed slides detailing Cognitive Based Therapy for Insomnia, an apparent outgrowth of the sleep restriction idea. A number of psychologists are available to guide patients through this to treat insomnia.

I’ve been engaged with a therapist with this for about 18 months and can answer questions if anyone is interested.

Pretty much what I learned many years ago both as a patient and a student.

Comes down to body memory and retraining that.

I have insomnia that is treated with 150mg of Trazodone taking 30 minutes before my bedtime at 10pm. I found a Cognitive Behavioral Therapist for Insomnia in Nashville, TN. She does all her therapy by tele therapy now. I had a 15 minute consultation with her and I was really impressed about how easy it was talking to her. Research says that tele therapy is just as effective as face to face. I have not started therapy yet because she wanted me to be established with my CPAP treatment.
