Hello practo user I can understand your concerns regarding your health . Sleeping patterns being disturbed can be very distressing . You can try and follow these steps for a better sleep hygiene - try and limit your screen time on phone/ laptop/ TV , try and practice deep breathing techniques and meditation before sleep as it helps clear the thoughts , try and maintain a diary in which you can mention the stressful events and how you dealt with them and also mention three positive events of the day . Try and maintain a healthy lifestyle and eat a balanced diet . You can also go for regular exercise as it can contribute to overall good health .Try and talk to a close family member or friend and spend quality time with them. It is advisable that you seek help from a clinical psychologist for an evaluation and formulation of a personalized treatment plan through which you can learn healthy coping skills and strategies. You can also reach out to me through the practo app for any further help or guidance.

Hello, If there is problem related to only sleep then you can try sleep hygiene. This include- Go to bed at the same time each night and get up at the same time each morning, including on the weekends. Use bed only for sleeping do not read book or use phone on bed. Make sure your bedroom is quiet, dark, relaxing, and at a comfortable temperature. Remove electronic devices, such as TVs, computers, and smart phones, from the bedroom. Avoid large meals, caffeine, smoking and alcohol before bedtime. Go for walk or exercise. If the problem persists consult for treatment of underlying cause for insomnia.
