Hi all. I'm interested to know how many of us have a serious sleep issue. So far I haven't found much of a unifying thread between aphantasics, other than that we're very familiar with what the back of our eyelids look like! But one common thing I have heard over the years is a sleep issue.

I have chronic insomnia. Interested to hear back from others.

Just coming back to share something new I've discovered... brown noise!

White noise makes my tinnitus go nuts. Brown noise is so much calmer, relaxing, I almost start hearing other sounds in it. I generated 1.5 hrs, saved it as an mp3, and I play it from my phone speaker at night. I used a free program called Audacity to do it.
