I wish that this book didn’t exist, but the author seemed to have good intentions. It was brilliantly written. People have to understand that Jewish females aren’t all suffering from schizophrenia. I have chronic insomnia starting at the age of twenty. I went to a cardiologist. Someone mentioned that there are people who have trouble sleeping because of abnormally fast heartbeats. I have heard nonJewish people talk about this book. The majority of us who are female Jews are extremely nothing like the character, Debra in the book. I take this book as an insult. Recently, I was interested in romance writing. This goes to prove that us Jews are not alike at all. I feel like us Jewish people are the most stereotyped people in the world. I was hospitalized for insomnia. No one can force themselves to stay awake for ridiculous amounts of time. The only human health problem which can’t be faked or malingerer is chronic insomnia. I was known to toss and turn in bed for many nights so I don’t know.
