Please consult your doctor and sort out the origin of your sleep disorder. A successful approach to improving the pattern will require a history, exam and possibly testing. Ther are many potential treatments available if you can sort out the problem.

Agree with Dr. Ferguson. It would appropriate to consult with a sleep specialist. For sleep hygiene: Visit this site for info on this topic https://www.cdc.gov/sleep/about_sleep/sleep_hygiene.html Wish you good health!

Your sleep difficulties could be potentially due to many conditions and need sorting out. Once an answer is clearly diagnosed, appropriate therapy can be instituted. An overnight sleep study might provide answers. Sleeping pills are NOT the best solution.
