I'm not sure I follow.

  By slowing myself down to a restful position, it affords some of the same benefits of sleep. I am very much awake for those few hours, and then I fall asleep. There's no pseudoinsomnia involved. I stay nearly perfectly still, inasmuch as a human can, and meditate. Once I am asleep, I guess I toss and turn, as well as snore. I highly doubt that I am unique, in these regards. The proscribed medical solution is a rotation of pharmacutical sleep aids. I don't usually bother with them, as I dislike the groggy feeling that I have the following day. But yeah, I am very much awake. My pulse rate slows, as does my respiration. At some point, I'll change position and that's when I have actually fallen asleep. The duration varies, and I sometimes just give up and go do something else.

    Prescribed? Proscribed means forbidden.

      It was either autocorrect or a brainfart.
