Jen slept fine the night before she couldn’t. Just short of 29 years old and after years of excellent sleep, insomnia entered her life leading her down a years-long search for cures, treatments, or even just an explanation of why her life had been turned upside down. Jen Senior is the author of an article, “Why Can’t Americans Sleep?” in the Atlantic and she joins us to talk about the intersection of sleep, depression, anxiety, shame, and so much more. We also discuss sleeping pills, antidepressants, and CBT-I, cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia.
