I always assure my patients that having a sleep disorder is not life threatening. Most sleep disorders are treatable with changes in lifestyle routines combined with herbal sleep aids, or prescribed medications.
The first thing is to figure out why you are having trouble sleeping.
It might be related to stress or illness. Sometimes patients drink too many caffeinated drinks or too much alcohol. Modafinil, diet, or daily living routines may affect the quality of sleep. After medical problems are ruled out I suggest trying a few self-care methods that I have found to be helpful.
