Have Troubled Sleeping? Read This.

Well, actually I am having troubled in sleeping for almost three months already. Since I can't fall asleep and prevent myself from thinking some negative thoughts and my "what if's", I make time passed by watching movies or kdramas in Netflix, until I find myself asleep in I don't know what time.

Reasons?

I don't know... Or maybe I know but I just can't say it myself. I've been thinking alot lately. Wondering and wandering my thoughts from nowhere.

Anyway, this article isn't about me, but partly I came up with this article because of it.

Some of us having this experienced, not just me. And maybe some may know the reason and some may not.

Getting not enough sleep is a trouble. We can't proper focus on things that should be done an accomplish. We lose our focus and can't concentrate cause we feel sleepy. Can't have a proper sleep is maybe a sign of having a sleep disorder.

Sleep disorder is a condition that we frequently impacts our ability to get enough sleep. It maybe due to stress, traveling, illness or an interruption to our normal routine. It takes a serious toll on our mental and physical health.

People with depression commonly struggle with insomia.

To fully understand the trouble we might experiencing, let's take some test or track our sleep to know if we have the sleep disorder.

• Keep a sleep Diary. Keeping a record of sleep pattern and problems. The Diary should have the time you went to bed and the time you woke up. The total hours you sleep, a record of time when you stay awake, the food and the amount of food you eat, you feelings and mood before going to bed, and any medications you take before going to bed. This will help you if you eventually need to see a doctor.
