There are thousands of people with sleeping disorders – many of them use the internet through the night as a way of shaking off boredom accustomed to insomniacs. Now, there is SHUTi or Sleep Healthy Using the Internet. This is a new online program that gives online sleep therapy to those that need it.

The program analyses information supplied by the sleepless user such as sleep diaries and in return the user gets information such as recommended bedtimes and advice such as to avoid daytime naps and what to eat.

This is done through games, quizzes and puzzles –just the kind of things that insomniacs need at 3am to keep the occupied. The program is intended to those who may not be able to afford a sleep therapist or live near one.

Despite these cool features, many are strongly opposed to the program. They say that nothing should try to replace a fully qualified therapist as there is a lack of human interaction and accuracy understanding of the client’s exact situation.

“There will certainly be people who prefer the face-to-face contact or do better with that type of therapy,” said an expert. “This will free up those limited resources for face-to-face therapy for the people who need it, benefit from it or would prefer it.”

In summary, it could either work spectacularly or just be another way for insomniacs to pass the time.
