Why can't i sleep well sometimes doctor?

Insomnia: Hi. Insomnia, having difficulty falling or staying asleep, is estimated to affect 60% of people some or most of the time. Reasons can be highly varied including stress, hyperthyroidism, sleep apnea, snoring partner, etc., etc. There are many drugs that may help: Melatonin (OTC), trazodone, benzodiazepines, zolpidem, etc. Zzzzzz....

INCOMPLETE PICTURE: COULD BE AS SIMPLE AS THINKING WHEN YOU GET IN BED - THOUGHT IS THE ANTITHISIS OF SLEEP. SOMETIMES SUGGESTS MANY TIMES. IS THERE STRESS DURING THE DAY? bUT IT COULD BE SO MANY THINGS! BEST PLAN: TALK WITH AN EXPERT WHO CAN ASK THE QUESTIONS THAT WILL NARROW THE POSSIBILLITIES. YOUR DR COULD DO THAT AND ADVISE YOU OR REFER YOU TO A SLEEP SPECIALIST OR THERAPIST. START THERE.

Sleep: depends on following a good sleep hygiene trial of Avoiding stimulants Going to bed on regular time Avoiding external stimulation like light and noise Exercise Eat regularly

Everyones problem: You note that sometimes you can't sleep at night. ThIs is everyone's problem. Avoid caffeine after 5 pm. Get plenty of exercise. As you age sleep does get harder do be prepared and keep looking for the golden ticket!
