Understanding Insomnia: Symptoms and Underlying Causes

Insomnia can manifest in several ways, including difficulty falling asleep, staying asleep, or waking up too  early and not being able to fall back asleep. While the occasional sleepless night is common, chronic  insomnia can lead to debilitating daytime fatigue, decreased productivity, and can exacerbate anxiety,  depression, and other mood disorders. Understanding that insomnia is often a symptom of underlying  issues, we delve deep into each patient’s unique situation, exploring potential psychological, physical, and environmental factors contributing to their sleep difficulties.

It’s important to note that at shrinkMD, we do not prescribe controlled medications which can be addictive and may not address the long-term underlying causes of insomnia. It should be noted that controlled medications can cause further long term issues. Instead, our treatment approaches are grounded in enhancing sleep hygiene, relaxation techniques, and, if necessary, exploring safe, non-habit forming supplements or medications as part of a broader, personalized care plan.
