What Are Sleep Disorders?
Many people go through nights filled with tossing, turning, or waking up over and over, only to feel exhausted the next day. At Mindfully Mended Psychiatry, our specialists can help you feel rested and refreshed again. Sleep disorders are conditions that prevent a person from getting a good night's rest. Many factors cause sleep disorders. Genetics can play a role, as can daily stress, mental health challenges, lifestyle habits, or physical health issues. Sometimes, psychology and sleep disorders are closely linked. Anxiety, depression, and stress all play a role in keeping people awake or affecting sleep patterns. Common types of sleep disorders include:
- Insomnia: A condition that makes it hard to fall asleep or stay asleep.
- Sleep apnea: Occurs when breathing repeatedly stops and starts, often causing interruptions in sleep and reduced oxygen levels in the body.
- Restless legs syndrome: Triggered by uncomfortable sensations in the legs, creating an urge to move them and disrupting sleep.
- Narcolepsy: Involves sudden sleep attacks where a person may fall asleep unexpectedly, even during daytime activities.
Sleep challenges can take different forms, but they all affect well-being. Contact our Burleson, TX practice to schedule a consultation and reclaim your rest and renewal. Mindfully Mended Psychiatry provides flexible treatment options with both in-person sessions and secure online platforms, allowing you to choose the format that best fits your needs and lifestyle.
What Treatments Are Effective for Sleep Disorders?
The first step in sleep disorders treatment often includes a thorough evaluation to uncover the underlying causes. Once the cause is identified, a personalized treatment plan can begin. For many, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is an effective option, especially for insomnia. CBT helps to change thought patterns and behaviors that interfere with sleep. Other psychological treatments may help manage anxiety, stress, or depression that contribute to poor sleep. Sometimes, medication is recommended, especially if other methods have not been successful. Medications may help to regulate sleep cycles or treat underlying conditions that affect sleep. Lifestyle changes, like managing caffeine intake, establishing a regular sleep schedule, and creating a calming bedtime routine, can also be part of the solution. Mindfully Mended Psychiatry takes a holistic approach to healing by treating the whole person, not just symptoms. By using evidence-based methods and personalized plans, our goal is to help you restore healthy, natural sleep.
