Can't sleep whole night

If you are unable to sleep through the night, try establishing a regular bedtime routine and keeping your bedroom quiet, dark, and comfortable. Avoid caffeine, heavy meals, and screen use before bedtime, as these can disrupt sleep. Relaxation techniques such as gentle stretching, reading, or deep breathing may help. If stress or anxiety is affecting your sleep, a doctor may consider short-term medication under supervision. If your sleeplessness persists or worsens, please consult your doctor or a sleep specialist to identify the underlying cause and discuss safe, effective treatment options.
