Good Psychiatrist To Treat Insomnia

[fistwood]

Hi, I am looking for a good psychiatrist or therapist to treat insomnia. This is the first time I got insomnia, and I am scared to be prescribed by sleeping pill because I am afraid i will be dependent.

PS: my location is Bangkok

I would suggest doing some google searches for commonly available over the counter antihistamines and their side effects.

A very good soft massage (foot particularely), if you can find a very good masseuse (rare nowaday) at home, works pretty well too. May not be enough but can only help if good (opposite if bad)...

 

I have insomnia too, sometimes. I may try the medicinal extract although i doubt it's good enough. Or wait to go in a more relaxed country with better quality. A shame, Thailand 40 years ago had an amazing quality plant.

May or may not work for you, but rather a long-term thing is to try meditation. Has really helped me. 

Best of luck.

This hospital in Bangna might be of help. They are a well regarded psychiatric facility.

Fix your sleep. Just buy one or 2 pills and you will have instant relief

You don't need a psychiatrist but rather a psychologist/therapist.

 

Some good western ones in Bangkok, see this list

PSI or Bangkok Counselling would be the places I'd suggest.
