Insomnia in the elderly is caused by a variety of reasons, first of all, we need to analyze the causes of insomnia. As we get older, we need less time to sleep. We often go to bed early because of boredom. When we wake up early in the morning, we want to think about things, which makes it difficult to go to sleep again. In the daytime, we don't have many things to do, so we often sleep too much, and the time for sleep at night is shortened.

For this kind of situation, the main thing is to give life guidance, explain the characteristics of the elderly's sleep, make the elderly maintain a regular life, do some housework and physical activities within their power during the day, such as travel, chess, painting, reading, watching TV, etc., maintain a certain degree of nervous tension, eat dinner, also do not sleep too early, to understand too much rest and sleep For the mental and physical health of the elderly are not conducive to improve sleep quality, on the contrary, it will accelerate the aging process.

In a word, the physical discomfort which is not very important for the general people may become a burden of disease for the elderly. If the stool is not clear, they dare not eat. They are afraid that "only in and out" will be blocked. These manifestations are called hypochondriac symptoms. All the above symptoms can appear in the depression in the old age. This is a mental illness that is not uncommon in old age, and even suicidal behavior in severe cases. Insomnia is often one of the symptoms of this disease in its early stage and onset.
