Chronic insomnia
Any out of the box advice for someone trying to fall asleep since childhood? I don't get more than 2-3 hrs of sleep. I've tried everything ranging from meditation, homeopathy, serotonin boosters etc. I lead a moderately active lifestyle, work out, spend time outdoors, eat healthy. What could I be missing?

Insomnia is a sleep disorder in which a person finds it difficult to fall asleep or to stay asleep. Insomnia also includes poor sleep quality, restless sleep, waking up several times during sleep, and feeling un-refreshed or tired after waking up. Homeopathy provides a very safe, effective and non-habit forming treatment of both types of insomnia acute and chronic. Since the Homeopathic medicines are sourced from natural substances, there are no side-effects.
While Insomnia lasting less than a month is considered acute, if the condition continues for more than a month, it is referred to as chronic Insomnia. There are various causes of Insomnia. The prominent ones are stress, grief, depression, emotional disturbance, intake of stimulants like coffee and alcohol, and a huge number of medical reasons (like heart diseases, breathing disorders, thyroid problems, and rheumatoid arthritis).
