Not able to sleep from almost 8 months till now. Always thinking and questions running in mind.
Patient's Query
Hello doctor,
I am not able to sleep from almost eight months now. I keep thinking, and questions keep running in my mind. I am also depressed. Please help.
Hi,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
The problem of sleep and excessive thinking might be due to depression itself. For sleep problem, try to avoid caffeinated drinks after 5 PM. Go to bed after completing your work, get up in the morning on fixed time.
In my opinion, you need to consult a psychiatrist either online or in person for a detailed assessment of your problem. After a full assessment only, I can advise appropriate treatment for your depression and sleep problem. It is unlikely that eight months long problem is going to disappear on its own.
Same symptoms don't mean you have the same problem. Consult a doctor now!
