- n.Unfortunately, as hard as I tried, I have suffered from Insomnia from the time I was a small child. I am so so happy you did not need medication but that is not in the cards for me. Everyone's battle is different. There is no shame in have to treat it with medication.
I wish they knew it isn't on purpose and that I'm doing everything known to mankind to try and rest. And I really wish people wouldn't say, "If you were tired enough, you would sleep." I am tired enough...
