For months, then years, sleep felt impossible.

Not the kind of tired where you drift off on the couch. The kind where you lie completely still in a dark room for hours, brain fully awake, body exhausted, wondering if something is wrong with you.

That was chronic insomnia. And it came for me twice.

The first time was in college. Six months of lying awake while my brother played video games three feet away, then lying awake long after he stopped. A psychologist eventually handed me two sheets of paper. Seven nights later, I was sleeping again.

The second time hit years later, and it was worse. Chronic bloating, heart palpitations that sent me to the ER, and a resting heart rate above 100. Behind all of it, a year of living with a girlfriend I would later understand was a narcissist. My body had been running on threat alert the entire time. Sleep restriction helped, but only partially. Years later, once I ended the relationship and moved out, the sleep restriction worked as magic.

The Little Book That Beats Insomnia is the honest story of how I overcame chronic insomnia twice.
