How Father Of Twins Recovered From Hypnic Jerks & Insomnia (Talking Insomnia #232 )

In this episode of Talking Insomnia, Daniel opens up about his insomnia journey that began in the summer of 2022. What started as one bad night before a long-awaited night out with friends quickly spiraled into months of anxiety, sleep windows, and a desperate search for answers. Daniel walks us through the highs and lows — initial relief through CBT-I, a brutal relapse with hypnic jerks in early 2024, and the moment a single paragraph in a book changed everything. Nine months later, he's sleeping well and has a message for anyone still in the thick of it: "You've got to go there to come back."
