[bimg=fright|no-lightbox]https://www.nestmaven.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/nm-logo-yellow-subline.png[/bimg]How to go about treating your insomnia will depend on whether it is acute or chronic, and what -- if any -- underlying condition is responsible for your sleep disorder.

Treating Acute Insomnia

While acute insomnia will eventually resolve without the use of any treatment, you can take measures to speed up your recovery.

Practicing proper sleep hygiene techniques promotes healthy sleep habits and can refresh your circadian rhythms.

If daytime sleepiness is interfering with your ability to perform, your doctor may choose to prescribe you sleeping pills for a short time.

However, it’s best to use OTC sleep medications as a last resort solution, as they often come along with side-effects that ultimately do not ameliorate your situation.
