"I think that for many of us, when we first got insomnia, we totally freaked out and worried about living on so little sleep"

DC, this is the whole problem, don't you think? If we had realised at the time, that our bodie's were reacting to something, and that it would eventually get back to normal, we probably would have settled back into our regular sleep without much ado about it all, but it was the what iffing and thinking things like "Oh God, what if I'm like this for the rest of my life"? that have allowed us to experience this journey that few other people are able to experience.
