Summary

Many Veterans of the recent wars in Iraq and Afghanistan struggle with chronic insomnia (trouble falling or staying asleep). Most current interventions for insomnia are time-consuming, making it difficult for this younger, working group of Veterans to use and benefit from these interventions. The investigators will assess whether Veterans find it helpful to use two health information technology tools, one for measuring participant sleep (the WatchPAT) and one for managing participant sleep (the CBTI Coach). The WatchPAT will measure physiological sleep in the Veteran participant's home. The CBTI Coach is a mobile health application used on the Veteran's mobile phone or tablet to teach skills that can reduce insomnia. The investigators will combine use of the WatchPAT with the CBTI Coach so Veterans can self-manage insomnia at home. Participants will record their physiological sleep and self-report on their sleep at home during a 6 week self-management program. The investigators will measure if Veterans find the tools helpful and easy to use, and which Veterans find the tools most helpful.
