'Ditching coffee makes insomnia WORSE'
Kathryn Pinkham, 38, founder of The Insomnia Clinic believes even reducing your screen time before bed will not help you sleep better.The specialist said it's important for the sufferer to understand why they have poor sleep, rather than cutting out things they enjoy.she explained "something triggers an episode of insomnia" whether it's emotional stress, or the flu.
But in a bid to sleep more, people will stop socialising, start wearing eye masks and even going to bed too early. "This is where the problem really begins," she said, "not only have we started to associate bed with being awake, leading to further poor sleep, we've also given up lots of things we enjoy".Get up earlier or go to bed later. This should encourage your body's sleep drve to kick in so you crave more sleep, and fall asleep faster.Getting up early will encourage your body to associate those times with being awake.
