Now more and more people have joined the "army of staying up late", but some of them are "forced" to stay up late. For these people, it's not that they don't want to sleep, it's that they can't sleep at all. We can always hear about insomnia in our lives, and the pressure of work and psychological unhappiness can lead to this situation. Insomnia, like an "infectious disease", gradually spreads to many people.
If you always have a hard time falling asleep at night, or you are easily awakened when you fall asleep, or you wake up early and your body is still very tired after waking up, it means that you have insomnia.
Even though you are tired, but you can't sleep in the early hours of the morning? Maybe it's related to 3 diseases, don't ignore it.
1. Depression
Most people's insomnia comes from psychological stress, and for people with depression, the main manifestation is that they are easily awakened in the middle of the night or have difficulty falling asleep.
If this condition persists for more than two weeks, and you are not in good spirits during the day and do not feel interested in anything, then you are likely to have depression. In addition to treatment under the guidance of a psychologist, you should also pay attention to adjusting your mentality.
2. Lack of qi and blood
In traditional Chinese medicine, between 3 and 5 o'clock in the morning, it is the time for the lungs to metabolize and rest, so this time requires people to enter a deep sleep, otherwise it is easy to affect the function of the lungs. However, many people have difficulty doing this at this time, or it is difficult to fall back asleep after waking up at this point.
If this is the case for you, it is most likely due to weakness of qi and blood. If this happens in the body, there is not enough blood in the body to nourish the heart, so that the nerves in the brain are still active at this time.
3. Menopausal insomnia
There are many women who have been sleeping well before, but often have trouble falling asleep in the early hours of the morning after entering menopause. Because women at this stage, the hormone levels in the body will be greatly reduced, which will affect the nerves in the brain. Not only is it easy to get upset and irritable, but I often have insomnia at night.
If this is the case, you can usually eat more estrogen supplemental foods, such as sesame seeds, soy milk, etc., when the hormone level in the body is basically balanced, you can improve your sleep.
