I naturally stumbled upon this method but it's nice to have it formalized. At first I noticed how insomnia fed on itself and noticed how I start to question my ability to fall asleep and as the night comes around I start feeling anxious.

I'm familiar with CBT methods for treating other issues so I naturally tried to break the cycle by doing basically what Ilya's talking about. It worked well for me but I always reverted to my old ways when I think I'm "cured" only to have insomnia strike back.

I'm going to try to be regimented about it and see if this helps me long-term.
