Advantages: none

Disadvantages: feeling tired, heavy and aching

I have suffered with insomnia all my life and though I have tried several various remedies none of them have worked. I have even tried smoking cannabis but to no avail.

Insomnia, or sleep apnea, can be extremely irritating especially when you are unemployed, as I am. I may have a job interview the next morning and will not be able to get to sleep the night before. Maybe an hour or two before I need to wake up I might actually get round to dropping off. This causes problems in the morning because I have become so tired from the consistent nights of sleeplessness that I just can't bring myself to open my eyes. Sometime I awaken and am alert and conscious, but cannot find the energy to open my eyes, it's like they're glued shut!

I sympathise with anybody who suffers with insomnia as I know what a nightmare (no pun intended!) it can be. Long term it can cause all sorts of problems which ultimately lead to making you look bad. Others sometimes perceive it that way anyway.

Sleeping tablets, antidepressants and all the rest of those pills just don't work. Instead, I have resorted to learning hypnosis and have slowly, over time, been using hypnotic techniques to help me sleep better. It hasn't cured the problem and it doesn't always work but it does help at certain times.

Summary: a very nasty condition that can cause mental problems
