What is a natural insomniac? Do you mean someone who requires less sleep to function than most? If that is the case, then I would be one of those people. I only need 4 hours of sleep. For me, insomnia is no sleep. There isn't really such a thing as a "natural insomniac" as insomnia means "abnormally prolonged inability to sleep". I don't have an inability, it's simply my body does not require 8 hours of sleep.

But most people here, myself included, suffer from depression, bi-polar illness, psychosis, or anxiety etc. and insomnia is part of the package.

Oh and don't worry, many people take
anti-psychotics to help them sleep. Seroquel is the most popular. Your sentence made me laugh it was like "I'm not psychotic ... but some of my best friends are .... (looks to crowd assuringly with a little nervous laugh).
