Specializes in Psychiatry

Start w med eval.: It may uncover underlying medical problems that need to be addressed. Cognitive Behavioral therapy can be effective. Psych meds may be indicated. Aim for daily exercise, 8 hrs sleep /night & good nutrition w 5 servings of veggies & 4 of fruit per day. Try tai chi, yoga, Qi Gong, progressive muscle relaxation, deep breathing exercises or meditation. Take care.

Clean up diet: remove inflammatory foods, grains, dairy and sugar to begin , 500mg magnesium can really help with sleep but need good sleep schedule and relaxation process before bed, Meditation can help. eat lots of green leafy veggies. Consider psychiatric evaluation , get a counselor .
