Suggest treatment for extreme insomnia and depression
human
I've been suffering extreme insomnia for over 5 months, for 3 of these months I have developed depression. I've spent over £40 on sleep aid herbals and such like trying to get back to a normal rythm, but as soon as 9pm comes around I begin to feel extremely awake regardless. My GP refuses to perscribe any sleeping tablets. I desperately need some relief from insomnia, it's driving me crazy, can you suggest anything?

DearWe understand your concernsI went through your details. I suggest you not to worry much.  Your GP knows the reason for your insomnia and that is why he is not prescribing any sleeping tabs. He knows you don't need them. You are depressed and that is a mental disorder. Many researches and researchers confirm that medicines alone cannot cure mental disorders. Life style changes, change in thinking pattern, relaxation etc are as essential as medicines. Psychotherapy can help you changing your lifestyle and thinking patterns. Yoga and meditation help you to streamline your metabolism and neurological balance. Please consult a psychologist for further information.If you require more of my help in this aspect, Please post a direct question to me in this website. Make sure that you include every minute details possible. I shall prescribe the needed psychotherapy techniques which should help you cure your condition further.Hope this answers your query. Available for further clarifications.Good luck.
