Ask Daniel #62: Post Traumatic Insomnia

Insomnia is often described as something similar to PTSD. Something happened in the past that triggered ongoing trouble sleeping and although you sleep better, this fear and the insomnia that came with it, can be triggered again.

In this episode we look at an email from Natalie and talk about how the way to not have Post Tramuatic Insomnia is to accept that the trigger and the trouble sleeping that followed can happen again. Because when you stop resisting that potential trigger, you avoid the reaction that lead to ongoing insomnia.
