Not a very helpful article for the insomniac. Surely a bigger problem for many people is being able to fall asleep at all, let alone sleep for a required number of hours.


The article wasn't about dealing with insomnia, so I'm not surprised that it lacked useful advice for dealing with it.


If you are truly an insomniac, no article will solve your problem. A doctor, however, is likely to help.


As a rule of thumb anxiety stops people dropping off to sleep while depression causes them to wake early. Sleep apnoea cause very many micro-breaks in sleep.

There are different forms of insomnia.
