Jennifer Aniston opens up about long standing health battle

Jennifer Aniston has opened up about a health issue she’s battled for more than a decade: insomnia.

Jennifer said she’s had a “real hard relationship” with sleep and is doing all she can to sleep at 10pm on weekdays.

She told Allure: “I really want to love it, and I am sure it wants to love me, but we have had a hard time, especially the last 10, 15 years.”

“It’s just hard to shut the brain down, hard to tell the committee to stop talking.”

“I’ve had to shut the news off,” she revealed. “I’ve had to give myself boundaries with information. You know what I mean?”

The Friends star said: “I’ve been trying hard to put myself in bed during the week at 10pm, turn everything off and then just sit there and let the world come crashing in.”

“I’ve been trying to meet that challenge for myself. Some days you’re great and on point, and some days you’re just not,” she explained.

The Murder Mystery star then noted that she tries her best to not be hard on herself about the sleep issue.

Jennifer Aniston added: “I’m a big believer in trying not to be hard on yourself because the world is so mean right now and so aggressive and negative. So why would we do it to ourselves?”
