What can be done for insomnia?
7 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
A LOT!!!: So very much can be done for insomnia but first have to find out the cause. Like look at your eating and drinking habits. Caffeine, alcohol, eating too late in the day, not exercising, exercising too late, medical problems. The list is very long. Then there are multiple solutions once you find the cause.Discuss this with your physician and they can lead you through all the questions.

D/W your doctor.: Retire & rise same time each day. Bedroom should be dark & cool - used only for sex & sleep. Turn off tv. No naps. Exercise regularly but not in late evening. No caffeine for 6 hrs & no alcohol or tobacco w/i 2 hrs of sleep. Dinner should be moderate sized & finished at least 2 to 3 hours before sleep. Can try warm milk, chamomile tea or melatonin along w light reading, warm bath, lavender scent.
