My heart is beating fast and I can't sleep. What should I do?

There are a lot of insomnia patients, but the reasons for insomnia in most patients are different. Some patients suffer from insomnia due to diseases, some suffer from insomnia due to lifestyle habits, and some suffer from insomnia due to heavy heartbeats. The process of insomnia is not only very painful, but also causes serious harm to the patient's body. So what should I do if I can't fall asleep due to heavy heartbeats?

First, what should you do if you have a heavy heartbeat and can't fall asleep? Don't make up for sleep: If you wake up at night and can't fall asleep again after 15 minutes, turn on the radio and listen to the broadcast, and turn it off when you feel sleepy. Remember: no matter how well you sleep at night, you must get up on time the next morning. Don't try to make up for sleep even on weekends, because this practice will not help overcome insomnia.

Second, don't develop the habit of lying in bed: go to bed only when you really feel sleepy. If you can't fall asleep after lying in bed for 15 minutes, get up and do something monotonous and relaxing, such as: read a book, knit, watch TV or look at the household account book. Remember: Don't do things that excite yourself. Go to bed when you feel sleepy. If you are no longer sleepy after getting into bed, get up and do the above things again until you can fall asleep quickly after going to bed. Develop the habit of getting up on time every day.

Third, calm your mind before going to bed: Some people are busy all day long, and only when they lie in bed at night do they remember to think carefully about what happened during the day. This is of course not conducive to sleep. The correct way is to take ten minutes or so one or two hours before going to bed to concentrate on thinking about the day's events, make a decision on how to deal with the problem, and then make a simple plan for the work to be done the next day. This method can help you reduce your worries, relax your mind, and enable you to fall asleep quickly once you go to bed.

What should I do if I have a heavy heartbeat and can’t fall asleep? Don’t drink coffee or smoke before going to bed: Coffee, Coca-Cola and chocolate all contain caffeine that makes people excited, so don’t drink or eat these things before going to bed. In addition, smoking can easily make people excited, so you must change the habit of smoking before going to bed. Don’t drink alcohol before going to bed: Some people like to drink some alcohol before going to bed in order to relax themselves, thinking that this can help them sleep. In fact, this is wrong. You should know that alcohol suppresses your central nervous system and disrupts your sleep. After a few hours, you will wake up with a headache due to the stimulation of alcohol. In the long run, it will do more harm than good to your health.
