Insomania.
Hi doctor, I am not getting proper sleep since past one month. I drink alcohol once or twice a week. My problem is that wether I sleep early or late, I wake up around 7.30
Well alcohol can be the first culprit to cause these symptoms. Not maintaining proper sleep pattern, poor diet pattern, stress can all worsen it.
Next Steps
kindly avoid alcohol and smoking if any. Do some relaxation exercises. don't skip your breakfast. maintain a work and rest balance. Do physical exercises and yoga if possible. Avoid junk food and caffeine.
Health Tips
Maintain a proper sleep pattern. Avoid late night snacks and food. Go to bed only when you feel sleepy. You should be okay within few weeks if you can follow these. Be relaxed stay healthy. Thank you.
