Chronic insomnia is an actual medical condition, just like feeling low is distinct from depression.
Just like basically anyone with depression has tried most-to-all of the "if you're feeling down try this!" advice, those of us afflicted with insomnia have tried any "winding down" method you might casually inflict as low effort drive-by advice on the internet.
Yeah it works sometimes. Then some other times I just don't fall asleep that night and it messes up my whole week. So it goes.
- AlbertCory 5y agoYeah, I know, but believe me, it's not drive-by advice just because you hear it all the time. Things can be true without being easy (or even possible for everyone). Insomnia might be a medical condition, but that doesn't mean your doctor has a prescription for it. If they do, it probably comes with a bunch of advice similar to the conventional stuff you're tired of hearing.
