If you suffer particularly bad insomnia, I encourage you to do a sleep study. It was life-changing for me.
I was able to discover that I suffer from narcolepsy, a rare but nonetheless real condition. It's not at all like most people think: you don't randomly fall asleep during the day. But your sleep schedule isn't really a schedule so much as a stochastic random walk.
Even if you don't have a rare disorder, there's a good chance a sleep study will benefit you. For example, a coworker said that a CPAP machine was similarly lifechanging.
- joegahona 6y agoI just had a sleep study, but because of snorting, not insomnia. I was playing around with one of the many snoring apps available now and was mortified at how I sound all night! They gave me a take-home apparatus to wear one night an then I had a call with a doctor who interpreted the results to me. He said I wasn't a horrible case but recommended I try a CPAP for a few months, which I'm now in the process of getting.
