Got any question?
There are many causes that can contribute to insomnia, such as anxiety/stress, lifestyle factors, medical conditions, medications, or other sleep disorders. Seeking early treatment of these underlying causes can sometimes treat your insomnia.
When your insomnia becomes chronic (>3months), it can last for months or even years and often requires more specialised intervention in order to revert the sleep to normal. The best way to do this is through cognitive behavioural therapy for insomnia (CBT-I).
In the first few months of your sleeping problems, it is possible that your insomnia will self-correct once the causing problem is gone. It is not always easy to determine what the cause of your sleeping problems may be, so seeking professional help may be beneficial.
For those patients who have had insomnia for years and years, it is less likely the insomnia will just magically disappear on its own. Treatments designed for chronic insomnia are the best way to get back to healthy normal sleep.
Yes! You do not have to suffer with your insomnia forever. Many patients have had their sleep revert back to completely normal after decades of sleeping problems.
The underlying cause of how your insomnia started is some sort of stress, but this isn’t necessarily a psychological stress. It could have been stressed caused by a medical condition (e.g., sleep apnea, pregnancy or menopause) and from a mental health condition. Commonly is it caused by stressful life events such as work stress or a situational crisis. Through our sessions together I will help you understand the underlining mechanics of this so you feel fully informed about your sleep.
