Permanently Beating My Insomnia
- brightball 6y agoThis is fascinating. I’ve never even heard of this and I’ve struggled with insomnia for decades. Best answer I’ve found it turning on a movie I’ve seen a million times on low volume. It turns off my brain enough that I can sleep but it doesn’t interest me enough to keep me awake.
- rahulshiv7 6y agoYup! I'd say watching boring TV is pretty similar to what I did with reading a really boring book, it makes you think less about sleep and put less effort into it.
