17 year old boy with Insomnia for more than 4 years!?

Question

hello, I'm having big problems of my insomnia, because now i only sleep for like 4 hours now, last year was 7 hours, and last 2 years 12 hours at least. I try all the best I can do to fall as sleep but nothing works, sometimes I've gone too far that i tried sleeping in the bathroom and outside our house. Now i look like a creep cause I'm really thin, and my eye bag is really black. I really want to sleep normally like I use to, cause i'm only 17 and i still want to grow. Anyone go through this but eventually found a way to cure it? Thanks!

Answer 1

Talk to your doctor about a sleeping pill. Have you tried any over-the-counter sleep aids? They are non-addictive. If you need to have one prescribed by the doctor there are ones which are non-habit forming.

But if you haven't tried any at all, I recommend you ask your doctor first.

Answer 3

Anxiety and stress are the most common causes of insomnia. But sleeplessness can also be caused by variety of medical conditions. You can ask for doctors about possible treatments.

> Avoid drinking alcohol in evening {if you are}.

>Don't smoke. Nicotine is a stimulant that can keep you awake.

>Reduce your intake of caffeine. If you suspect caffeine is contributing to your sleeplessness, don't use any caffeinated products for at least 12 hours befor going to bed.

> Avoid large meals just before going to bed. Try a light snack instead.

>Take a warm bath or a spa an hour or two before bedtime. It can soothe tense muscles and help you make sleepy.

>Get regular physical activity.

> Your bedroom should be quiet and dark.

> A cool room temperature - betw. 15.5 deg. cels and 18.3 deg. cels - is best fo sleeping.

> Avoid long late-afternoon naps.

> Read in bed for a few minutes.

>Counting sheep iisn't recommended. It requires the brain to focus on a specific activity. Use imagination - picturing yourself in a pleasant place as you then drift off to sleep.

>Be aware of your medications that may affect your sleeping pattern.

***It may take a few weeks to adjust into a new, natural sleeping routine. If you are unable to make progress after trying the above steps, consult your doctor. :)
