Hello Doctor,
I’ve been having trouble sleeping for about two years now, and it’s really affecting my daily life. I’m not sure what kind of doctor I should see for this. Also, I’m worried about using sleeping medication because I don’t want to rely on pills. Are there other types of treatments or therapies that could help me improve my sleep without medication?
Hello,
Thank you for reaching out Dr. Galen, Please find the below response to your query.
For ongoing sleep difficulties, a family medicine doctor can help evaluate your situation and identify any underlying causes. It’s good that you prefer to avoid medication; many patients benefit from lifestyle changes and behavioral therapies, like cognitive-behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBT-I). This therapy helps improve sleep habits without medication. If needed, we can discuss safe options together. Starting with a consultation is the best way to find the right approach for you.
Thanks
