How to treat neurasthenia and insomnia

Insomnia, to put it simply, means the inability to fall asleep, even when it is late at night and everyone is asleep. There are many reasons for insomnia in life. Sometimes it is because of too much work pressure, and sometimes it is because of some personal illness. For example, neurasthenia can cause severe insomnia, which makes the patient suffer greatly. So the question is, how to treat neurasthenia and insomnia?

Experts say that insomnia caused by neurasthenia can be adjusted from the following aspects:

1. Correctly understand insomnia caused by neurasthenia. Eliminate excessive tension and fear about insomnia. Prevent the vicious cycle of neurasthenia.

2. Find the causes of insomnia, such as mental stress, emotional agitation, tobacco and alcohol stimulation, environmental discomfort, etc. Only by eliminating these external interferences can you get a good sleep.

3. Develop good living habits. It is very important to overcome insomnia caused by neurasthenia. Get up on time, work on time, eat on time, and sleep on time. Gradually form a conditioned reflex. Develop regular work and rest habits.

4. Perform self-hypnosis. Insomnia caused by neurasthenia is often difficult to improve through general adjustment methods. Then you can try self-hypnosis, such as muscle relaxation, counting breathing, music hypnosis, self-suggestion, etc.

If the insomnia caused by neurasthenia is still difficult to improve through the above methods, it is best for the patient to consult a professional psychologist and conduct appropriate psychotherapy when necessary. Experts remind that for insomnia caused by neurasthenia, do not take drugs for hypnosis at will, so as to avoid aggravating the symptoms of insomnia due to improper use of drugs. The correct approach is to consult a psychologist first and seek psychotherapy. Those with severe symptoms can take appropriate drugs for adjustment under the doctor's diagnosis and guidance.
