Answer 1

Insomnia (sleeplessness) is due to stress, dietary and medical
problems. By making small lifestyle changes like having a fixed
daily routine, relaxing and eating properly, insomnia can be
cured. I found the information at http://tinyurl.com/jfzpz useful
for getting sleep.

atment for Insomnia

Insomnia can be a very trying disorder as there is no long lasting treatment for it. Environmental and psychological factors play an important role in insomnia and curing insomnia requires finding out the basic reason for lack of sleep. Treatment options include natural treatment, medications, exercises and dietary regulations.

Many things can relieve insomnia, which include having a good health and a comfortable lifestyle. Adequate exercise in the form of skipping, jogging, aerobics etc along with watching what you eat is essential. Although it is better not to exhaust your body at night and neither should you overeat before you hit the sack. Having a feeling of control over your life is vital for you to sleep peacefully. Also the environment of your bedroom should be conducive for you to sleep in, such as dim lit, quiet environment along with a comfortable room temperature. Also, holistic approach can be tried. Yoga and other forms such methods aim at creating a healthy body and sound mind. Drinking milk is also a good alternative before sleeping. For children and teens, barley and oat milk works wonders. Another method is to enforce positive thoughts in your mind by speaking to yourself, as this improves your overall personality buildup as well.

Certain drugs and medications can also help you tide over insomnia, although self-medication should never be considered. Since insomnia is just a symptom, by taking drugs, you are not treating the condition as such. People with psychological conditions are difficult to treat for insomnia. In these cases, drugs are essential as sedatives also help in relaxing the patient. Behavioral pattern and developmental disorders can also affect your sleep pattern. Thus for a treatment to take complete effect, it may be required to take behavioral therapy sessions for a regular period. If the above things are kept in mind, it is not difficult to treat insomnia and thus lead a normal comfortable life.

A high potency vitamin-mineral daily and calcium-magnesium-zinc tablets with each meal should help calm your nerves. Calms FORTE, 5-HTP, GABA, melatonin, and Valerian are all good natural sleep aids. The BC pills should be out of your system effectively in a week. If negative thoughts continue to plague you find a counselor, or read the section on A Positive Mental Attitiude in Encyclopedia of Natural Medicine by Murray & Pizzorno. Good luck!
