I don't want medication.

I want to know what habits I can change so that I can get to the root of the problem instead of being dependent on and paying for medication for the rest of my life.

I can’t sleep because I haven’t been at school for a long time and that we don’t do anything that tires me out

When you’re parents don’t believe you that you have sleep problems

What I’ve noticed is you need a sleep pattern go to bed at the same time each night and wake up around the same time each day. Having a job to go to really helps with this cause it forces you to be up so your not late for your job. And by the end of the week at your new job you’ve already trained your mind and body to sleep at this time wake up at this time. The human body usually only stays awake for 14-16 hours and the reaming 8 hours should be your sleep time that’s a 24 hour day roughly. You should not require any sort of naps during the day if you do need a nap that’s just a sign you haven’t got enough sleep or quality sleep. My body and mind are trained so good as soon as I get that tired feeling and my head hits that pillow I’m out until I wake up. If it’s hard for you too go to sleep first thing you gotta do is get your body and mind on a sleeping schedule
