As a traditional Chinese medicine practitioner, I have seen intractable insomnia for 40 years, and it can be said that traditional Chinese medicine will alleviate most patients with intractable insomnia to varying degrees, and some people have also been reversed to a large extent.
Some time ago, I saw a 47-year-old patient who said that he had insomnia for more than 10 years, and he basically didn't sleep a single sound sleep in the past 10 years, and his hair was gray. Inadvertently, he swiped my ** and left me a message, hoping that I could help him see what methods could be used to improve his insomnia.
I learned that this patient has difficulty falling asleep, and always wakes up in the middle of the night, and after waking up, he can no longer sleep, accompanied by dizziness, heaviness, chest tightness and shortness of breath, and likes to forget things, does not think about eating, does not have a stool, often loves to be irritable, loves to get angry, and seems to have a lot of things in his heart. Every night before going to bed, I was afraid that I couldn't sleep, the more scared I was, the more I couldn't sleep, the more nervous I was, for more than ten years, he felt that he was being tortured, I looked at his tongue, the tongue coating was light, the tongue was fat, and there were tooth marks.
Syndrome differentiation he belongs to liver depression, qi is uncomfortable, heart and spleen deficiency, and lack of qi and blood leads to insomnia.
If the heart is insufficient, people are easy to fall into anxiety and depression; When the spleen is not healthy, people are prone to cranky thoughts, and they are prone to waking up from dreams. I prescribed him for conditioning, guided him on lifestyle changes and taught him some health knowledge.
After a period of time, this patient took the initiative to contact me at the outpatient clinic to share his joy, and he basically does not wake up again in the middle of the night, and can sleep from 10:30 p.m. to about 5:30 a.m. in one sleep, and now he basically does not fall asleep for more than half an hour at night.
If you are also deeply troubled by insomnia, you can tell me your situation in detail, and I will give you a dialectical analysis.
