Auntie Wang retired almost three years ago, friends and neighbors think she should be very satisfied with her life, her children are very good, studying abroad, and her husband is also very loving, and there is nothing for her to bother about. But since she retired, she doesn’t have to go to work every day, and she doesn’t see many people. Auntie Wang is always alone in an empty house, and she is too lazy to go out. Auntie Wang’s poor sleep problems in her 30s, when she was only occasionally bad sleep, but this year often woke up at about 2 o’clock in the night, woke up after how can not sleep, until dawn to get up. Recently, her daytime energy is worse than before, and sometimes she feels tired and fatigued, but she can’t go to sleep. I heard from a neighbor that Xiangyue Hospital has a sleep disorder clinic that specializes in treating sleep problems. Auntie Wang then came here. After understanding her condition, Dr. Wei found that her sleep disorder was related to her mood, which was a depression-related sleep disorder. Dr. Wei then prescribed some mood-regulating medication for Auntie Wang to take and told her to keep taking the medication. Depression-related sleep disorder is a sleep disorder caused by depression. Most depressed patients have sleep problems, mainly in the form of difficulty falling asleep, difficulty maintaining sleep, and early awakening, and are accompanied by significant depression. Early awakening is a common complaint, and the total sleep time is shortened because of the inability to fall back asleep after waking. Despite the shortened sleep duration, patients often do not experience significant daytime sleepiness, which may be related to their high level of wakefulness. Antidepressant treatment can improve the depressive state and shorten its course, and insomnia is often one of the first symptoms to improve. If you have unexplained distress and depression, if you have been examined in various departments of a general hospital and no abnormalities are found, or if you have persistent insomnia that cannot be cured, it may be caused by more complicated reasons, so it is best to consult a sleep specialist for early treatment.
