      Audience Member While as a insomniac is was interesting to hear others who have gone through same struggles, it didn't give any new or helpful information. It was frustrating to hear people say the same old advice insomniacs have heard countless times before, like set a routine , prioritize sleep , and telling us how important sleep is . That's insulting. As if we don't KNOW it's important and a priority. We know better then anyone . Insomniacs don't have time to waste watching this unhelpful film . Also , when I gave this honest feedback in comments they BLOCKED ME ! I'm a perfect case study , but cut me off! If they wanted to help those of us who struggle to sleep, my insights would be valued . Rated 1 out of 5 stars 02/03/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating
