In my other post (deleted), I basically said this. I've been dealing with it for months, and very early going through CBT-i and like it so far.
What all is involved with the CBT-I on your end? I’ve been considering taking some trainings since I already use CBT and TF-CBT. And not many of the therapists in my area have trained in it.

I'm using an app on my phone. I like it so far, and though very early, I feel more relaxed about sleeping, and I actually slept okay last night. A big stress event hit me about 8 months ago, but I'm over that, but the sleep issue remains. I tried ACT-i using a book, and it has some good things in it, but I need more than a book.
I've come to learn a bit about it over the months... what can happen with chronic insomnia is that you get in a bad cycle of not sleeping well, which raises cortisol, which raises anxiety, which causes you not to sleep well, and it snowballs. Nasty cycle.
