I'm so grateful for your channel! It's been quite the journey for me, but I'm still hanging in there. Thank you so much for the education, and hope you've given me!
This helped a lot!🙏🏽💞
Thank you Daniel for this video. I’m still in my midst of the struggle coming up to 10 months now but found your content. I am really hoping I can fully recover from this very very soon 🙏 it is debilitating me now and really is impacting my quality of life 😪 thank you for this video I really appreciate it
My struggle is tho I have given up sleep efforts for weeks now & I truely do nothing to sleep. But I still cannot fall asleep for hours and hours and I can’t stay asleep either. This is what makes me scared and concerned that my case may be different. The hyperarousal isnt as intense , I go to bed calm doing nothing and I still can’t sleep for hours 😪😪
I'm truly sorry to hear about the challenges you've been facing. It sounds incredibly tough. We're here for you and glad that you found our content. Remember, you're not alone in this journey, and seeking support is a positive step.
biggest thing that played part in creating performance anxiety was the duration of time being awake. idk where it was written or maybe i heard it from someone else that if you were awake for more than average hours (maybe like 14-15) or something your body thinks there is something wrong (danger) and will delay sleep for that day. now i don't remember exactly what was said, but when i look back at it i realize how stupid it really is 🤣fear of this was so deeply rooted that even after i educated myself about sleep drive which literally debunks that because it only increases throughout wakefulness even after that I didn't realize this til now...
Thank you for your heartfelt comment! We want to assure you that your comments are seen and deeply appreciated.
Thanks for your content! I also subscribe to your app. One of my main problems is I don’t worry if I sleep or not. I honestly don’t care. But I still feel this ache or anxiety in my heart during the day seemingly about it and it makes me feel so alone. Like I truly do not care if I sleep but I still am worrying about it during the day even though I tell myself, but you don’t care if you sleep? It’s like my brain is so stubborn! Any tips or ideas. I don’t care about the tired feeling of a sleepless night, but the daytime dread is what bothers me and makes me not present as much as I want to be.
I’m having the same problem as you!
How do you think you don’t ’need to’ sleep when there is a great need to sleep to perform at a high pressure event (5 days and international). When this happens I get one hour sleep a night and am fearful of my fear of not being able to physically cope 5 days in a row with bosses
Thanks for your comment!! Just a quick heads-up: we're hosting live Q&A sessions most weeks and we'd love for you to join us! It's a great chance to ask questions, share insights, and connect with others in the community.
Kobe Bryant spent most of his career sleeping only 4 hours a night if that.. and that itself was often in two separate chunks
Jerry West similarly didn’t sleep well (and still doesn’t) into his mid 80s
British Prime Minister Margret Thatcher averaged 4 hours a night her whole life and that includes live public appearances/speeches/performing duties
It’s certainly possible to do so
What can you do if you are truly exhausted from 8 months of insomnia ? I crash asleep for 3 hours then awake again. How can i fix the exhaustion ?
I am exactly in the same place. Exreme exhaustion and brain fog even though I now have started slowly getting a few more hours sometimes even 6..still so so tired.
You indulge it

@@thesleepcoachschool8192 thank you but my time zone doesn’t allow it.
@@vladradu8875 I did this the other morning. Best sleep ever! I have a stange insomnia and somniphobia situation so,... I really took those words in and told myself I deserve the best rest and restoration ever and should take advantage of the luxury of sleep for my brain and body because I deserve it and I love myself.. so indulged...
Daniel - you talk a lot about effortlessness, and that really does resonate with me. An issue that I experience is that, even though I am nodding off on the couch, when I lay down in bed in silence to sleep, I have trouble sleeping. It almost feels like an effort in and of itself b/c I am expecting to sleep. However, when I abandon trying to sleep and put on an audio book or podcast, I forget about trying and just fall asleep. Should I just abandon laying down in silence to try to sleep? Should I just start my bedtime by putting on an audiobook or podcast first ting? Is that less of a sleep effort since I am doing something and not trying, or is that too disruptive to sleep by avoiding thoughts?
