This has been extraordinarily frustrating. Just when I think I've got this issue resolved, I have another sleepless night. These aren't the odd night where you only manage 4-5 hours, but are the physically draining 0-2 hour marathon in bed. I'm trying to train myself to get up when I find myself awake for a half hour or more, but even that doesn't seem to help. As with the drug problem before, I can find no "common denominator" with what works and what doesn't. Seems that maybe if I'm not tired enough when I go to bed, I'm likely to have a sleepless night.
Regardless, this is now day 29 of this new "regimen" I'm on (SleepTracks, light in the morning, more activity during the day, getting up at the same time, going to bed later) and I would have hoped I'd retrained my brain by now ... apparently not. I'll keep on going for as long as it takes, since this appears to be the only successful way of tackling this problem. If I've suffered through this for the past year, what's a few more months?
