Ruth is a member of the Insomnia Land community (we’re currently in closed beta – contact us if you’re interested in joining). She recently posted a link in the forums to an article over at the BBC’s h2g2 about the history of insomnia.
It’s a fascinating piece, and well worth a read. It tells us how famous people from history dealt with their insomnia, and how some used it to their advantage.
Who knows, maybe this article will inspire you to try a new ‘insomnia cure’ – courtesy of Winston Churchill or Charles Dickens. You might want to ignore any advice from Alexandre Dumas, though – unless you want to end up with 500 kids.
