Across the developed world, millions have quietly made peace with sleeplessness, treating it not as a condition to be healed but as a permanent feature of who they are. Sleep psychologist Nuria Roure, drawing on more than two decades of clinical work, has identified five recurring mental barriers that keep people from seeking the help their bodies have long been asking for. Her message is both gentle and urgent: poor sleep is not a fixed destiny, but a treatable disorder that responds to sustained effort, professional guidance, and the willingness to stop rationalizing suffering as identity.
