What should teenagers do if they suffer from severe insomnia?

Many parents want their children to become successful. Every parent hopes that their children can be versatile and learn this and that. But this also greatly increases the learning tasks for young people. Many young people say that the pressure of studying is too great and there are not enough hours in the day. Moreover, they have to do their homework very late at night, which leads to serious lack of sleep. High pressure can also lead to insomnia. So what should teenagers do if they suffer from severe insomnia?

1. Don’t eat or drink too much before going to bed. Eat a small dinner about two hours before bedtime, but don't drink too much water, as constant trips to the bathroom can affect your sleep quality. Avoid eating spicy or oily foods at night, as these foods can also affect sleep.

2. You can drink a glass of milk before going to bed. Milk can help you fall asleep, but for people who are allergic to milk, eating an apple or a slice of bread will have the same effect. Eat more foods that can improve sleep quality on a daily basis, such as red dates, lilies, millet porridge, walnuts, honey, sunflower seeds, etc.

3. Stay away from coffee and nicotine before going to bed. It is recommended not to drink coffee eight hours before bedtime.

4. Stick to a regular schedule and don’t sleep too late on weekends. If you go to bed late on Saturday and get up late on Sunday, you may suffer from insomnia on Sunday night.

5. Sleep deeply at night. Napping during the day may lead to sleep deprivation at night. Daytime sleep time should be strictly controlled within one hour, and you cannot sleep after 3 pm.

6. Choose a time to exercise. Exercising in the afternoon is the best time to help you fall asleep, and regular physical exercise can also improve the quality of your sleep at night.

7. Keep quiet. Turn off the TV and radio.

8. Take a bath before going to bed. A hot bath helps relax your muscles and lead to better sleep.

9. Keep the room temperature slightly cool. Keeping your bedroom cooler can help you sleep better.

10. Have a comfortable bed to provide a good sleeping space.

11. Don’t put pressure on yourself when you have insomnia. Pressure will make it even harder to sleep.

I hope that after reading the above content, parents will be able to pay better attention to their children and understand how difficult it is for their children. Provide your children with a healthy and happy learning environment, and avoid giving them too many heavy tasks. This will only add to the burden on the child and it is an unnecessary burden. It also restricts children's free imagination. This is very detrimental to the child's growth.
