Available Options for Sleep Disorder Treatment in Dallas

Almost everyone will have trouble sleeping at some point or experience fatigue during the day. This can be a result of a busy lifestyle, stress, pain, or a mental health condition like depression that impacts your ability to get good sleep.

In many cases, restlessness or fatigue will go away on its own once a stressful period ends or you are able to make some adjustments to your routine. But many sleep disorders have a deeper cause and you cannot simply expect them to go away on their own.

Some of the sleep disorders we treat at Aware Behavioral Health include:

  • Insomnia – Insomnia can cause difficulty falling asleep or staying asleep at night due to a variety of different causes.
  • Sleep Apnea – Sleep apnea causes a blockage of the airway while you are resting that leads you to repeatedly wake up throughout the night and never enter deep sleep.
  • Excessive Daytime Sleepiness – Poor sleep at night or conditions like depression can cause you to feel extremely tired during the day.
  • Narcolepsy – Regardless of the amount of rest the previous evening, narcolepsy may trigger sleep attacks that cause a person to unexpectedly fall asleep in the middle of the day.
  • Restless Leg Syndrome – This sleep disorder will cause you to feel like your legs and other parts of your body cannot remain still, keeping you active and awake throughout the night.
  • Parasomnia – Parasomnia occurs when someone exhibits unusual activity while asleep, such as talking, moving around, or engaging in other non-sleep related behaviors.
  • Circadian Rhythm Disorders – When your circadian rhythm, which controls when you feel sleepy and wakeful, is unbalanced, can make it difficult to fall asleep or wake up, at the necessary times.

As a psychiatrist in Dallas, these sleep disorders are only one of the conditions we treat with a range of options for many different mental health conditions. Because of this, we can use a diagnosis for a sleeping disorder as a starting point while also understanding the various concerns you have about your mental and physical health to effectively treat both the cause and effect of a sleep disorder.
