The difficulty in falling asleep is manifested in lying in bed for 30 minutes or even 1-2 hours, tossing and turning, impatience and discomfort until late at night. Unstable sleep is characterized by shallow sleep, dreaminess and easy awakening. After waking up, you can fall asleep again, but it is inefficient to wake up more than 3-4 times a night, so you sleep less than 20% every night, and normal people generally do not exceed 5%. Because I wake up many times at night, my sleep quality is affected, so I have symptoms of lack of sleep. Wake up early means that you can fall asleep slowly, but you can only sleep for 2-3 hours after waking up, and then you can't sleep again and again. You wake up 2 hours or earlier in the morning, and you can't sleep again, or you seem to sleep or dream again and again. Because you wake up in the middle of the night and you can't get up until dawn. If family members are still sleeping at this time, people who suffer from insomnia will be more agitated.
Many cases of insomnia are caused by discomfort in some parts of the body. Here are some examples:
1. Central nervous system diseases, such as brain trauma, brain tumor, cerebrovascular disease (cerebral hemorrhage, cerebral infarction), Parkinson's disease, Alzheimer's disease, epilepsy, migraine, etc.
2. Respiratory diseases, such as chronic bronchitis and chronic obstructive emphysema.
3. Urinary system diseases and sleep during chronic renal failure are often short-lived and broken, and only kidney dialysis or kidney transplantation can effectively solve them. Frequent urination caused by diabetes, diabetes insipidus and urinary system infection can also interfere with sleep.
Allergic diseases often interfere with sleep, such as itchy skin and blocked nose, which makes sleep impossible.
Digestive diseases, such as ulcer, enteritis and dysentery, cause abdominal pain, heartburn, nausea and vomiting, which also obviously interfere with sleep.
6. Circulatory diseases, especially heart failure, angina pectoris, hypertension and arterial phlebitis, can lead to insomnia.
7. Inflammation and pain of bones, muscles and joints are common diseases in clinic, which also cause sleep disorders to varying degrees. In these diseases, insomnia is often accompanied by symptoms. Insomnia can generally be recovered after the disease is cured.
It is more important for the health of the elderly. In terms of sleep preparation, posture and habits, we should also pay attention to the following taboos:
1. Avoid eating before going to bed: If you eat before going to bed, your stomach will be busy again, which will increase their burden, and other parts of your body will not get a good rest, which will not only affect your sleep, but also damage your health.
2. Avoid excessive brain use before going to bed: Do something easy to relax your brain before going to bed, so that you can fall asleep easily. Otherwise, the brain is in a state of excitement, and it is difficult to fall asleep even when lying in bed. After a long time, it is easy to lose sleep.
3. Avoid emotional excitement before going to bed: People's emotions can easily cause nerve center excitement or disorder, making it difficult for people to fall asleep and even cause insomnia.
4. avoid talking before going to bed: because talking is easy to excite the brain and make the thinking active, thus affecting sleep.
5. Avoid drinking strong tea and coffee before going to bed: Both strong tea and coffee are stimulating drinks, which contain substances that can make people feel excited, such as caffeine. Drinking before going to bed can easily lead to difficulty in falling asleep.
6. Avoid lying for a long time: Chinese medicine believes that "lying for a long time hurts the gas". Too much sleep can lead to dizziness, listlessness and loss of appetite.
7. Avoid sleeping in the wind: keep the room ventilated, but don't let the wind blow directly on your body. After a long time, cold air will invade from capillaries, causing diseases such as colds and chills.
Commonly used sleeping pills will not only produce drug resistance, but also easily cause liver damage. Scientists have found that there is a certain relationship between food and sleep. An American doctor of medicine believes that it is easier to fall asleep by eating some hypnotic food before going to bed. Recommend a few for reference only:
1. Milk: Milk contains tryptophan, which is an essential amino acid for human body. Drink a glass of milk before going to bed, which contains enough tryptophan to fall asleep. The satiety of drinking milk also increases the hypnotic effect.
2. Walnut: Walnut is a nourishing and strong product, which can cure mental weakness, forgetfulness, insomnia, dreaminess and poor diet. Eating walnuts every morning and evening is good for sleep.
3. Longan: Sweet and nontoxic. Longan meat can nourish the heart and spleen, nourish blood and soothe the nerves, and can treat insomnia, forgetfulness and neurasthenia. Guipi Pill, a traditional Chinese medicine prescription for treating dreaminess such as deficiency of heart and spleen and insomnia, contains longan pulp.
4. Lotus seeds: Lotus seeds have the function of nourishing the heart and calming the nerves. MUBI upset insomnia, can add a little salt to lotus seeds, water decoction, take every night before going to bed.
5. Vinegar: When you are tired and insomnia, take 1 tablespoon vinegar and take it slowly in warm water. Close your eyes when drinking, and you can sleep peacefully for a while.
Insomniacs have the experience that they can't sleep at night but feel depressed during the day. This will not only affect work, study and life, but also cause other diseases, which is not good for your health. Therefore, insomniacs must not rely on sleeping pills, but should strengthen self-regulation.
First, you should know your sleep cycle. Everyone has their own specific sleep cycle, so we should choose the most suitable sleep time and way and develop a regular physiological clock.
Secondly, do moderate exercise every day, but not at night. Moderate exercise can relieve the sympathetic nervous system and is a good way to improve sleep disorders.
Third, choose the right food for dinner. Dinner should eat more light food, such as fresh vegetables and fruits, and eat less irritating food. A glass of milk with honey before going to bed also helps to sleep.
In addition, if possible, take a hot bath before going to bed every night to help you establish a regular sleep cycle. Massage can also promote sleep. Insomnia can be relaxed in bed.
With the acceleration of the pace of life and the increase of life pressure, there are more and more insomnia patients. Comprehensive therapy has a certain effect on insomnia. Here are some examples:
1. Health care therapy: massage the temples and Baihui points several times a day, and comb your hair with a health care wooden comb for 5 minutes to keep your mood comfortable, relieve your troubles and eliminate your ideological worries.
2. Dietotherapy: Take jujube, wheat and rock sugar. First, take jujube and wheat and add water to get juice, then dissolve the rock sugar and take it once a night, 1 time.
3. Medicated porridge therapy: take jujube, pork, rice and sugar in moderation. First, take rice to cook porridge, add jujube and pork when it is boiled, add rock sugar when the porridge is cooked, and cook it once or twice, once a day 1 dose.
4. Umbilical therapy: Take Ziziphus jujuba seed, grind it into fine powder, put it in navel, and fix it with externally applied Shangshi Zhitong ointment, and change it to 1.
5. Foot-sticking therapy: Take cinnabar, add appropriate amount of paste, mix well, put it on Shangshi Zhitong ointment, apply it to Yongquan point of foot, bind it up and fix it, 1 night.
6. Foot bath therapy: decoct Magnetitum, Chrysanthemum morifolium, Scutellariae Radix and Caulis Polygoni Multiflori in water for 2 times, remove residues to get juice, pour into the bathtub, and soak your feet while it is hot 15-30 minutes, every night 1 time.
Treatment of insomnia with "anti-intention"
The theoretical assumption of "reverse intention" therapy is that the person seeking treatment changes his attitude towards a certain behavior in a deliberate way, so that the inappropriate emotional state accompanying the behavior is separated from the behavior, thus achieving the purpose of treatment.
For an insomniac, when the therapist adopts reverse intention therapy, the method is to make him stay awake intentionally, lie in bed, watch TV, read books and newspapers, stay awake all night, and engage in normal activities as usual during the day. After this treatment for several days, when the seeker can't resist the need of sleep anyway, after supplementary sleep, let the seeker return to normal work and rest time. Another example is the treatment of facial muscle habitual twitch disorder, which allows patients to actively contract facial muscles and set a higher frequency until they feel tired. And make it operate repeatedly every day, and after repeated training, the purpose of gradually eliminating habitual twitching can be achieved.
This method can also be used to treat bad family relationships. For example, husband and wife should stimulate each other with cruel words every day and punish each other with threats, retaliation and other means. For this inextricable vicious circle of family relations, when using reverse intention therapy, opposing couples are required to finish the assigned "homework" meticulously every day, and they must quarrel for an hour or two before being allowed to end. Let them take the initiative to make excuses, search for bad blood in past lives, and treat them as shells in a war of words until they are exhausted before they are willing to call a truce. Expose the weakness of human behavior from the opposite direction.
Reverse intention therapy can be carried out by the treatment seekers themselves, and it can also help the treatment seekers quickly overcome the fears caused by specific life events, such as boss interviews, job interviews, exam stage fright and so on.

Psychology teaches you how to deal with insomnia.
Psychological clinics often receive visitors who are troubled by insomnia. Most of them have the same characteristics: sensitive personality, suspicious, lack of self-confidence, stubbornness, indecision, perfectionism and anxiety. I always worry about headaches, inattention and memory loss caused by occasional insomnia. They go to work listlessly every day, complaining, "Alas! Didn't sleep well last night! I can't work today! " At night, they always try their best to make themselves "think nothing today and have a good sleep!" " However, contrary to expectations, the more you want to sleep well, the more you can't sleep, forming a vicious circle. Some of them tried many methods, such as taking medicine, practicing qigong, listening to music, or trying to control their own thoughts, but the results didn't work. The methods taught by psychologists were quite different from those they used before.
First of all, don't regard sleep as very important in values. Sleep is the best way to rest the brain and body, but physical labor and exercise are another best way to relax. If you didn't sleep well the night before, you can take a hot bath in the morning and go out for exercise, just as energetic. Insomnia patients often think that sleep is the most important thing in life, and all they think about is how to sleep well. He doesn't understand that sleep is to ensure health, health is to work, and work is not to sleep, which means that sleep is not the goal of life. In addition, people only need 2-4 hours of deep sleep every day, and others sleep in their dreams. If people really stay up late, they will have a nervous breakdown for 3 days and die for 5 days. However, some people say that they haven't slept much for many years, but their thinking is still normal, so their insomnia problem is not as serious as expected, and people should believe in their vitality.
Secondly, sleep is also a natural reaction of the human body. If you are sleepy, you want to sleep. Don't be artificially controlled. The more you stop thinking, the more paranoid you will become. You should adopt a natural attitude: I want to go, I'm not going to sleep today! As a result, when you can't control your emotions and thoughts, you will naturally fall asleep after 20 minutes. So are fears and anxieties. Some people are particularly afraid of not being able to sleep, and some people are always afraid of waking up in the middle of the night and finding it difficult to sleep. The more afraid they are, the more awake they are, and the more nervous they are about themselves, resulting in a vicious circle. Normal people will wake up in the middle of the night for various reasons. The difference is that normal people have no thoughts of fear and exclusion, do not reflect and hate themselves, and fully accept their natural state, thus relaxing.
Thirdly, many insomniacs always feel that they don't get enough sleep at night, so they should make up for it whenever they have time. The more they sleep during the day, the more they can't sleep at night, and they are not in the mood to participate in hobbies. The correct way is to take part in outdoor sports activities to relax yourself, especially before going to bed, and don't let your brain be in a state of excited thinking. We should do some simple and boring physical activities, such as walking, climbing stairs, skipping rope, washing clothes and mopping the floor. Feel tired, go to bed when you are sleepy, and then go to sleep with a natural relaxation state.

Your body has an internal biological clock, and it needs everything to be arranged in order. Experts say that you get up at the same time every morning, even on weekends, which may be the most important step to establish your good sleep habits, because exposing yourself to light at the same time actually sets the alarm clock in your brain. Experts say that once this clock is set and works, at some time in the evening, it will lead to another aspect of the brain, that is, it will start to feel sleepy, which provides a good foundation for you to fall asleep. Therefore, you should first adjust your biological clock in the morning, get up at the same time every day as far as possible, and don't stay in the dimly lit bedroom after getting up. You should get up for a walk or have breakfast in front of a sunny window.
Second, limit your bedroom behavior.
Experts say that watching TV, planning tomorrow's schedule, solving problems and reading with your spouse will all be related to your energy. For some people, these activities can prepare for sleep, but if your sleep quality is not good, then you should strictly limit your actions in the bedroom and do nothing but sleep.
Third, absolutely separate sleep from energy.
If you often find yourself in high spirits for a long time after lying in bed, then you will worry about how to sleep and even worry that tomorrow's work will be affected. So the pressure on you to have a good sleep is even greater. If you are an alarmist, and the time you spend lying in bed at night is the time when your thoughts wander freely, then you should take 30 minutes of "alarmist time" from your daytime plan alone. During these 30 minutes, you should write down your worries and your action plan. If these troubles come to you again when you sleep at night, then you can tell yourself, "I have thought about these problems during the day and solved them. Now I absolutely don't have to think about them." Lying down, feeling low and not sleepy,/kloc-what should I do if I don't fall asleep for 0/5 minutes? Experts say that in this case, you should get up. After getting up, you should avoid stimulating activities, such as reading newspapers and interesting books. Instead, you should watch TV scenery films or boring things. Only when you feel sleepy can you go to bed. If you can't sleep and don't get enough sleep at night, don't sleep in the morning. Generally speaking, it is better to go to bed when you are obviously sleepy.
