Do you feel like you have a greater penchant for insomnia because not believing in religion means it is on us to solve the world's problems? Or do you sleep better knowing you have not succumbed to the hysteria that is organized religion?
I am definitely of the "insomnia due to the weight of the world on my shoulders" breed.
I have learned how to move my thoughts away from the fear to work on current personal projects, mostly stories.
I try not to think of any thing erotic. Obvious reasons. But there are times when i know it will be at least an hour, so i will succumb.
The drug i have been using/taking the past three months has interfered with this. Waking every 60-90 minutes. Same stupid dreams, or none, and song ear worms. Been very tired. Less so recently with adjusted dose and timing. Lack of sleep makes me much more intolerant of imbecilia masquerading as homo sapiens sapiens.
I often have insomnia but not because I feel I need to solve the world's problems. I just can't sleep. Sigh.
I never have insomnia. I sleep like a log. The only thing that interfaces is my picky cat trying to decide which cover she wants under and whether she is going to stretch out or curl up. After she decides and settles down, I am asleep . I don't think about religion or world problems. I like to go to sleep, figuring out how much money I would donate to my favorite causes, and how I would spend the rest, in case I win Lotto. I figure I need to be prepared.
The world is going to do what the world is going to do, worrying about it can be a waste of time. If you are doing what you can to help with the present political situation then you are part of the answer and not part of the problem. Get some sleep.
When i have insomnia it is caused by something relevant to my life.
