Daniel, thank you so much for having me on your channel. I am so appreciative of your continued education and guidance, and the wonderful community you’ve created. It’s honestly like no other. For those going through it, just know that it’s going to get better! What helped me the most was continuing to educate (or remind) my brain of the teachings, being kind to myself when I got off track and “allowing things to sort themselves out” (or allowing the process to occur at its own pace - with the ups and downs). You are all rockstars!
I love this comment, Rob. I've been experiencing off-and-on insomnia for 18 months or so. It's gotten better, but I still have regular rebound insomnia--nights of next-to-no sleep (except the eventual surrender sleep around 3-4AM). Right now, I'm on Prednisone for some contact dermatitis (poison ivy), and that's set me back a few nights. But I'm constantly reminding myself that sleep happens, and rough nights come and go. Just need to embrace whatever happens.
Rob saying he still did what he needed to do even if he slept for 1-2 hours was powerful. I am currently experience the worst insomnia of my life but that line hit hard. Sometimes we just gotta wear the discomfort and bring it along for the ride. I've had insomnia for half my life on and off but learning not to structure your life around it helps.
So glad you found this talk with Rob, and I believe so much what you said about wearing it. Thanks for sharing and hope you’ll find something here that leads to less struggle
I cannot tell you how thankful I am for this channel and for you Daniel. I'm on my 6th day of no sleep and these stories of people's real journeys are so incredibly comforting. When I am able to get out of this pit it is my goal to be interviewed here on your channel!!
@@TWRehab on friday i was able to crash for a few hours, probabky about 5 hours. Wasnt the best sleep of my life but it was better than nothing. i keep panicking when trying to fall asleep :/
So glad you’ve found value here Caitlyn and you know, it’s not an easy path in the beginning, but I know that anyone willing to learn and finding some courage inside will do well. You’ll arrive where you want to be
@@GaryFountainHills my insomnia lasted almost a year. i went many nights with no sleep at all and most nights with just between 2-4 hours if i was lucky
Arlene, wow I’m so so glad you’ve found us 😊!! I fully believe that all the answers really are here and I hope you will find that the struggle is fading away for you soon!!
After reading Why We Sleep by Matthew Walker I’ve been really health conscious with my sleep that instead of helping me to get out of the cycle it made me even more conscious and anxious about my sleep than I need to be😩
Hey Ashton! You are amazing and I cannot thank you enough for posting that. As you know, Reddit is a dicey place for those dealing with insomnia - lots of misinformation, problem solving and scaremongering. Reddit needs more people like yourself!!!!! Thank you so much!!!
@@robatkin Thanks Rob. I can't be sure it was me, but I told a lot of people about this channel on the insomnia forum back when I was exiting my struggle. If it got me out of it I figured it could get anyone out of it. Glad you conquered your insomnia as well.
Thanks Rob & Daniel I received so much from this recording. I’m not in a great place atm however I’m 4 days into using the app so I’m feeling a teeny bit hopeful. Great story here, just let it take care of itself…
So glad you found this episode Maree and that you are giving our app a chance to help. And yes, this indeed is so true, it takes care of itself. Easier said than (not) done but, with some willingness to learn, some courage and self kindness, we arrive where we want to be 🙂
I would love to share my story, only problem is i am in the firm grip of insomnia right now. Its been 2.5 years. I am so desperate for help, so so desperate. Ive been binge watching these videos.
Hello, I am in desperate need of help with insomnia. Mine is chronic. No sleep at all. But it started slowly getting worse for me and then when I got anxiety and panic attacks I totally no sleep.
Hi Coach Daniel, I’ve been having Insomnia for about 1.5 weeks, it’s starting to affect my personal and work life. I cant seem to sleep at all at night and take the day off work to sleep during the day. Should I continue to go to work even if I have a complete night of 0 sleep, I would find it extremely hard as I work in construction in AZ heat?
Hi Daniel, thank you for creating these videos! I have been struggling with insomnia for 10 years and have been on sleep medication for most of these time. I'm currently trying to wean off the medication while working through the CBT-I regime. I'm wondering if you have any success stories for insomnia sufferers who have been on sleep medication for many years? I need a little hope now as I'm finding the sleep restriction very rough. Thank you!
Hi Anon, So glad you’re here and you know, you’ll find as you look at the success stories that most were on medication and most didn’t find sleep restriction helpful. Alexander, our most recent guest, that’s a really powerful story to stay with. Hang in there!
Hey Daniel! Nice Video Quick ? Any advice if you pretty much Beat Insomnia and started sleeping well for like 5 Months with some small set backs here and there but then all of a Sudden you have 2 or 3 nights of ad Sleep, even though you know already what causes insomnia? Just Don’t want to go through the Fear All Over again and go back to where I was😩 Thanx
I`m thinking of enjoying the immunity program, but because I live in Japan I can probably never join the live video chat meetings. Is there an alternative?
So glad you’re thinking of joining! We factored in that people join from all over the world, so time zone won’t have to keep anyone from being a part of this. Live is 6 am your time, but you can submit questions in advance and watch the reply later. Best!

Hi daniel,im really stressed about developing cognitive loss and dementia.i read so much about sleep and dementia.do you have a video about it?
Hi Anna, yes we do! If you check among the Heard online videos, maybe check the Heard online playlist, there’s at least one that I think can help
Hey Daniel! Nice Video

I’d love to be a guest although still early on my journey of healing a lot to share vitamins to hunger causing insomnia
Hi Sharan! Thanks so much for volunteering. We are on break over the summer, but check in in the fall and that could be really nice!
Please advise me on how to contact your program for help.
