<p>Your mood and performance can be severly affected due to a few nights of bad sleep.Experts state,as well, that the longer a sleep problem persists,it is unlikely to go away without some form of intervention by treatment. Insomnia should not be ignored. It is not a fact of life, as so many of us believe, and there is help. </p>
<p>Do you have Insomnia?</p>
<p>Are you are constantly struggling with sleep quality, not getting enough sleep, and suffer from the following symptoms, you may have insomnia. Ask yourself these questions.</p>
<p>Do you Have problems falling asleep? Are you frequently waking up during the night and cannot fall back asleep? Getting up earlier than you want in the morning? Even after sleeping a good 7-9 hours,you awake un-refreshed.</p>
<p>You are not alone if you have said yes to any of these questions.According to a recent study, reports indicated 35% of all adults get the required amount of sleep,and that nearly half of all Americans have some difficulty sleeping.</p>
<p>Experts,however,have suggested that only 1 in 3 people suffer from a chronic disorder. But regardless of its frequency, our emotional and physical well being is in danger as a loss of sleep wreaks havoc.Impaired concentration, diminished memory, constant headaches and the increased risk of substance abuse and motor vehicle accidents are some of the major factors of prolonged insomnia.</p>
<p>Signs and Symptoms:</p>
<p>Signs and symptoms of insomnia/lack of sleep differ from person to person. Some individuals may suffer from anxiety approaching bedtime, while others fail to feel refreshed even after getting and abundant amount of sleep. Other symptoms may include; not being able to sleep despite being extremely tired, daytime drowsiness, irritability, feeling of depression, and impaired ability to perform normal activities.</p>
<p>Types of Insomnia:</p>
<p>Two types of insomnia are prevalent; chronic and short term. Chronic diagonoised insomnia, or on-going insomnia, occurs at least three nights a week over a month&#8217;s time. There are two classifications of chronic insomnia;</p>
<p>Primary Insomnia: Insomnia not related to any other health or medical problems.Secondary Insomnia: Insomnia caused by an underlying medical condition (physical and mental), medication, or poor sleep environment.Short term (transient) insomnia is lack of sleep lasting for one night to a few weeks. Intermittent insomnia is the last class of insomnia and is characterized by &#8217;bouts&#8217; of insomnia, or insomnia occurring from time to time</p>
<p>It has proven extremely difficult for treating insomnia for patients and care providers alike.Every person presents his/her own set of unique problems and circumstances. There exists no cure-all for people suffering from chronic sleep problems; rather physicians aim to treat the condition through a multi-factorial approach. The Four of the most popular methods for treating insomnia include:</p>
<p>Reconditioning: Reconditioning therapy is a method which involves re-organizing the environment a person uses to nothing more than a place of rest.Reading or watching TV in bed must be stopped, and used only to sleep.</p>
<p>Sleep Restriction: Sleep Restriction is done under the guidance of a medical proffesional. This technique is used to alter andlessen the time spent in bed by the person. People with insomnia often spend too much time in bed trying to fall asleep. Going to bed later or waking earlier is done until normal sleep patterns return. </p>
<p>Relaxation Therapy: This type of theory aims to reduce stress, tension, and anxiety in a person relaxing the muscles and diminishing &#8216;racing&#8217; thoughts.</p>
<p>Medications: Perhaps the most controversial of all treatments, despite its success, medications are used to alleviate anxiety and treat underlying medical conditions (e.g. depression) that may be contributing to the condition.The medications used to treat insomnia (over-the-counter and prescription) carry an extreme risk of physical and psychological dependency. In addition, there are many side effects associated with the use of these drugs; including morning grogginess, dry mouth, dizziness, and nervousness. Lastly, the majority of these medications are recommended for a maximum of 14 days of continuous use.</p>
<p> What you need is an all natural, safe, and long-term solution for Your insomnia, or other sleep related-issues.Understanding that sleep is essential,one needs to find treatment that bridges the gap between your sleeplessness and a great night&#8217;s rest. Trouble sleeping is often the result of naturally occurring chemicals in the brain, particularly adrenaline and non-adrenaline. These chemicals are used by the body for alertness. However, in insomnia these &#8220;awake&#8221; chemicals are more active than your &#8220;sedentary&#8221; chemicals.The most important of all the &#8220;sedentary&#8221; chemicals, as far as sleep is concerned, is GABA (gamma-aminobutyric acid). This chemical slows down brain activity, relaxing the body and allowing you to sleep. In the majority of insomnia sufferers, GABA doesn&#8217;t work as it should. </p>
<p>The result? Restlessness and problems falling asleep.

<p>Nothing can turn wedded bliss into a gigantic nightmare any faster than trying to deal with a snoring spouse. The person doing all the snoring usually is not aware that he is interfering with his wife&#8217;s sleep, because he is sleeping fine.

Many even resort to finding other sleeping quarters.</p>
<p>Many wives&#8217; tales list cures for this problem, from putting an axe under the offender&#8217;s pillow to burying a tuft of his hair under a willow tree during a moonlit night.

Do not despair, ladies! More practical helps now exist to help remedy this problem that do not involve divorce, separate bedrooms, or moonlit nights.</p>
<p>Stertor, the medical term for snoring, is the noise created from vibrations made by air being forced through a mall opening in the back of an overcrowded throat. Lifestyle changes can help lessen, and sometimes totally eradicate the snoring problem. These include losing weight, changing eating patterns, getting more exercise throughout the day, and avoiding alcohol use at bedtime. For some, not using sleeping medications have drastically decreased the snoring episodes.</p>
<p>Nasal stuffiness can sometimes cause snoring. This can be remedied with antihistamines or the use of nasal breathing strips. If antihistamines are to be used, it is advisable to speak with your physician</p>
<p>first for recommendations. Many antihistamines should not be used by individuals with certain medical conditions or if they are taking other medications for conditions such as high blood pressure or asthma. But, the nasal strips are relatively free of any side effects. They may be easily used by simply applying the strip over the bridge of the nose as directed by the instructions included with the strips.</p>
<p>If help is sought out from the snorer&#8217;s physician, he may first do some simple exams to make certain that the snoring is not due to thyroid problems or other metabolic disorders. Once these are ruled out, he may refer the snoring individual to a sleep clinic for evaluation. Here, the individual would be evaluated for problems such as sleep apnea</p>
<p>in which there are periods of not breathing during the night.</p>
<p>A dental evaluation may be needed. Dentists now have the ability to design mouthguard pieces that prevent the vibration of the soft palate in the mouth and the soft tissues in the throat that lead to the grunting noises made in the snoring episodes. Depending upon the cause of the snoring, these appliances work in various ways. Some lift the soft palate to stop the vibrations. Some use a suction method to hold the tongue forward, preventing it from blocking the throat. Still others hold the jaw forward, pulling the tongue forward with it.</p>
<p>If all else fails, there are surgeons who perform procedures known as &#8220;snorectomies&#8221;. Fleshy parts of the throat are removed that obstruct the normal breathing passageways. In many cases this may be done on an outpatient basis with very little discomfort. It is done with a laser under local anesthesia so that the patient is sitting upright and is fully awake during the 20 to 30 minute procedure. This usually produces a noticeable change in the snoring problem immediately. Speech is not affected, and the throat may have some minor soreness with swallowing for about a week.

<p>Many helps are now available to help the spouse of a chronic snorer to get a good night&#8217;s rest as well. So, why suffer through one more night of loud obnoxious grunts that may be heard on the next block? No need to let a good marriage go bad due to your lack of sleep, make that appointment with your physician today..</p>

<p>While insomnia prevails among a notable proportion of adults, children too suffer from sleep disorders. Insomnia in children is characterized by signs of wakefulness or restlessness daily at night, irritability or heaviness on waking from sleep, mood swings, lack of concentration, and unusual difficulty with remembering. </p>
<p>Causes of Insomnia in Children</p>
<p>In children, the causes of insomnia are generally more easy to work out that in grown ups. If your child suffers from any of the symptoms listed above, look for any one or more of these causes that usually cause insomnia in children: stress, diet, anxiety, fear, physical problems (constipation, pain etc.), and disturbed routine (watching TV late in the night, over use of computer, video games etc.) </p>
<p>Insomnia in Women</p>
<p>A good number of women suffer from insomnia in early pregnancy. Insomnia In Early Pregnancy Is Mostly Caused By Discomfort And Anxiety. Most people attribute the insomnia in early pregnancy to the hormonal imbalances &#8211; while in some cases this would be true, there are plenty instances where the insomnia in early pregnancy is caused by the excitement and anxiety of being pregnant..

Most people attribute the insomnia in early pregnancy to the hormonal imbalances &#8211; while in some cases this would be true, there are plenty instances where the insomnia in early pregnancy is caused by the excitement and anxiety of being pregnant.. To counteract the problem, you will have to consult a doctor since self medication would be contraindicated once you are confirmed to be pregnant.</p>
<p>Insomnia during Pregnancy</p>
<p>Studies have found that about 78 % of pregnant women suffer from insomnia for varying durations. However, physicians believe that insomnia during pregnancy is normal and not dangerous to the infant&#8217;s health. A number of reasons account for sleeping difficulties encountered during pregnancy. In many cases, the growing size of the abdomen is the main cause of sleeplessness. Pressure eon the bladder caused by increased size of the abdomen makes it necessary to urinate several times during the night. The pregnant woman feels trouble with finding a comfortable position for sleeping. Feeling the baby&#8217;s movement can also cause waking up at night. Heartburn and back pain are two main physical problems that cause insomnia during pregnancy. There might be aching in the hips, causing discomfort. Hormonal changes and psychological conditions like anxiety and/or depression are other main causes of sleeplessness. </p>
<p>Coping With Insomnia during Pregnancy </p>
<p>The first thing to do is to prevent you from getting overly anxious, just looking at the time and worrying about sleep. Taking a warm bath, before going to bed, brings comfort and relaxes you to sleep. Relaxation exercises like yoga and meditation etc. are helpful in relieving anxiety and bringing sleep. You can also ask your partner for a massage. Take plenty of exercise during the day or in the evening but not too close to bedtime. Exercise will make you tired and hence drive you to sleep. Also try to avoid taking naps in the day. If you get up several times to urinate during the course of the night, take fewer fluids after 4 pm. Also avoid taking caffeine drinks in the evening. Their stimulating effect is a sleep antagonist. Keep the temperature of the bedroom at a comfortable level. Keep the window open for fresh air to reach you. Use additional blankets to keep you warm if the room feels cold. </p>
<p>Menopause and Insomnia in Women</p>
<p>Women going through their menopause frequently suffer from insomnia. Menopause and insomnia co-occur due to the reduction and imbalance of hormones associated with menopause. The resulting stress, anxiety, and depression deprive the menopausal woman of sleep. Accompanying these sleep disturbances are hot flashes and sweats that are the characteristic symptoms of menopause. </p>
<p>Treatment for Menopausal Insomnia</p>
<p>Insomnia is treated in a variety of ways like prescribed medications, herbal formulas, relaxation techniques, exercises, psychological treatment (if anxiety or depression are the main cause), lifestyle changes, home remedies and nutrition etc. For menopause and insomnia co-occurring, hormone replacement therapy is also used. However, it is not effective in all women and different women going through menopause respond differently to this therapy. When the body&#8217;s hormonal imbalance settles down by itself, the insomnia associated with it also disappears. </p>
<p>Various Prescribed Medicines for Insomnia</p>
<p>Trazodone is an antidepressant available in the drug market under the brand name Desyrel or Desyrel Dividose. Besides treating depression, loss of motivation for daily activities, and other symptoms, Trazodone is frequently prescribed for treating symptoms of insomnia. </p>
<p>Over the years, lexapro and insomnia have been connected together because of the fact that most people who have taken this drug ends up suffering from insomnia. According to experts, lexapro is one of the most effective drugs for treating depression especially in children and adolescents. Unfortunately, lexapro and insomnia seem to have become so closely associated that when you think of lexapro and insomnia, you immediately associate it with cause and effect where lexapro becomes the cause of insomnia.</p>
<p>Melatonin is a hormone that the body produces naturally. It is also a powerful antioxidant. Melatonin is reported to help to have a sedative effect on the body, helping to induce sleep in many. It is non-toxic and no side effects have been officially reported while using this therapy. Using melatonin for insomnia is a fairly well-known practice in society.</p>
<p>Prozac is certain type of medicine that is commonly used to treat depression in people. As an anti-depressant, prozac is rather effective and is said to be very good in helping people with anxiety disorders and eating disorders. However, the bad news about prozac is that it can have some serious side effects including insomnia.

<p>Insomnia Tips</p>
<p>Can&#8217;t sleep? Many households today suffer on sleeplessness of one form or another. While there are many medications you can take as an insomnia attention and multi strange ways of addressing this problem, have you ever mulled over your physical fitness levels and amount of exercise? It&#8217;s true that the more active you are, the better you largely sleep at night.

These movements actually cause tiny tears and rips in the muscles that need to be repaired during the day as well. How is this an insomnia treatment?

But in reality, while exercising does give you energy for the duration of the day and does substantiate your metabolism, it is also a remarkably effective insomnia service for most. Why is this?</p>
<p>Exercise is a good insomnia treatment for many reasons. One is that it puts demands on the muscles. When you&#8217;re physically active the muscles are pulled and stretched in order to support your movements. These movements actually cause tiny tears and rips in the muscles that need to be repaired during the day as well. How is this an insomnia treatment? The body needs to be at rest in order for the muscles to be repaired and renewed. They need to be inactive for them to be healed. The body makes you feel tired in order to get you to sleep so that it can have this inactive time for healing. This is often why you feel tired after strenuous exercise or physical exercise; the body is simply trying to get you to rest so it can repair itself.</p>
<p>In other words, being active means you&#8217;ll be tired enough at night to actually sleep, which might not sound like an insomnia treatment but which is surprisingly effective.</p>
<p>Physical activity helps to regulate your blood sugar and metabolism. These too are involved in your sleep cycle and can be part of your insomnia treatment. When your metabolism goes up during exercise, it then continue to run higher or faster even when you&#8217;re at rest. The heart beats more rapidly in order to send blood and oxygen to those muscles so they can go through that healing process. This too contributes to your being tired at night, which is a great insomnia treatment. When your blood sugar is regulated you do not have the highs and lows of those who have sugar problems and which tend to interfere with healthy sleep.</p>
<p>Exercise is good for you for many reasons; an insomnia treatment is just a side benefit to being physically active on a regular basis. You work your muscles enough to make your body want to sleep so they can be repaired. This makes you tired at night; it might even be impossible to stay up regardless of whether or not you want to sleep! So while you might not have thought of exercising as being an insomnia treatment, you may want to give it some consideration. You&#8217;ll be able to fall asleep and stay asleep much better than if you&#8217;re sedentary throughout the day. </p>

		<description><![CDATA[<p>Question by SH313: What are some simple ways to reduce or stop snoring?
I have a roommate I keep waking up, but I never snore unless I&#8217;m in that dorm room. Is there medication or techniques that can help me reduce or stop snoring?</p>
<p>Best answer:</p>
<p>Answer by JulesLosing weight can help but if you arent overweight &#8211; dont.</p>
<p>A tennis ball sewn into your sleep shirt can help as it prevents you rolling onto your back which exacerbates snoring.</p>
<p>Also those nose patches like bandaids &#8211; they can open up your sinuses to help you breath more clearly.</p>
<p>Thats my best hope it helps  </p>
