I'm kind of bored.
Not when we're
threatened.
So you can see how conditioned insomnia, which is not necessarily a a a physiological problem, it's not even necessarily
Bad habits, although a lot of people with insomnia have what we would consider poor habits that don't support long term sleep.
They have become conditioned because of this prediction and control process, I think.
To come to associate bed and bedroom as being a place of danger r rather than a place of rest.
And that has to be disrupted as well as the habits improve.
Well, I think what we can do is first we want to reassure people that even good sleepers, certainly normal sleepers have bad nights.
And that is to be expected.
So if you have if if you're doing along swimmingly and you have a couple of nights, even a week, where sleep is bad, that doesn't mean, oh no, I'm going back into my insomnia pattern.
Good sleepers have bad nights.
Good bad weeks.
There's a theory for insomnia development, it's called the three P Theory.
The first P stands for predisposing factors, and that says everybody's born to be some sort of a sleeper.
A good sleeper, a poor sleeper, a light sleeper, uh
Whatever kind of sleeper.
