Emma's Story

"I have struggled with sleep since I was little, but when I got ill, it got worse. I knew that getting good sleep was critical to healing, and I felt a lot of pressure to get eight hours of sleep consistently, every night.

 

Completing CBT for insomnia helped me learn that eight hours is not a rule; it's an average. Different bodies have different needs. By holding on to this idea of perfect sleep, I was actually making it harder on myself to heal. I couldn't relax, and any time I woke up I was really anxious and frustrated, which made it harder to get back to sleep. Gradually, I started listening to my body. I let go of the idea of a perfect night of sleep, and gave myself permission to be flexible and worry less."
