I'm curious about this idea of insomnia. I'm between jobs right now which means I don't have to get up. That means for whatever reason (my genes?) I find I'm not tired until 5am, 6am often. I sleep 7 hours just fine. So the only thing about it being "insomnia" as in "unable to sleep" would be some artificial reason I have to get up in the morning. Am I making any sense? It seems like it's only insomina because someone/something is forcing you out of the schedule your body wants. Well, I don't know your body. I'm talking about mine but just saying. I'm getting my sleep just not a the times other people claim I should be getting it.

- MaximumYComb 7y agoMine wasn't related to a schedule. I had medication-induced insomnia and it was a complete inability to sleep. I would feel incredibly tired but my mind was wide away. I'd lay in bed but whatever makes you fall asleep just wouldn't happen. In the first week, I slept [0,0,2,0,2,0,2] hours.
