Approximately three-fourths of service members still reported insomnia as a problem after PTSD treatment, reports Military Times.
The researchers took an even deeper look into the results and found additional important information. For those service members who no longer met criteria for PTSD after successful treatment, more than half continued to report insomnia, and 13 percent continued to report problems with nightmares. Again, this is from those troops who made such significant improvement that they no longer had enough symptoms to retain the PTSD diagnosis.
Good info although I think some of these folks would be served well to rule out sleep apnea and other physical causes of their “insomnia’ –Many times what the lay person terms insomnia turns out to be respiratory related arousals! We need to look at both the physical and non physical causes for poor sleep!
