		themodelplumber on Aug 27, 2018 \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: Maybe Your Sleep Problem Isn’t a Problem Insomnia probably isn't limited to a simple reflection of a biphasic sleep-related problem. As an example, someone with naturally high anxiety could get on the most biphasic sleep schedule possible and still suffer from insomnia due to their anxiety about what tomorrow brings, etc.

Sure. My point is not that insomnia doesn't exist, only that waking up in the middle of the night is not necessarily an indication of insomnia.
