Hello all, long time sporadic insomniac here - currently 1:15am and going through a bout.

hello i wondered of the members who use light-boxes for SAD in the winter, at what time of the evening do you need to switch it off.? I believe that they will reset the internal body-clock in the early part of the day, apparently the more light we get during the day, the better sleep should be. :idea:

Since childhood I have found that if I run a high fever that I will have the same dream over and over which even when about a neutral subject will become nightmarish upon repetition.
