Introduction: The harm of insomnia and the importance of treatment

Introduction to the three-piece treatment method
The three-piece treatment method is a behavioral cognitive therapy method commonly used in clinical practice, which is used to improve sleep quality and correct sleep habits. It consists of the following three components:
Sleep Limiting Time (SLT): Gradually adjust the patient\'s connection to the \"bed\" by controlling the time to fall asleep and wake up. In the initial stage, you can determine a reasonable and fixed time to get up, and gradually reduce the time allowed to stay in bed before going to bed according to the actual situation. Constant Wakefulness (SE): Helps establish a more stable sleep-wake association by staying awake at the same time in bed every morning. Patients should choose a suitable time to get up in the morning based on the actual situation and keep it constant on this basis. Bedtime load (SL): By adjusting daytime activities and evening behaviors, you pay more attention to the sleep environment and personal habits, thereby increasing the desire to fall asleep and improving the sleep effect. Avoiding over-stimulation, relaxing the body and mind, and cultivating a good bedroom environment are all effective ways to create a good sleep atmosphere.
The mechanism of three-piece treatment of insomnia
The three-piece treatment mainly works through the following aspects:
Restoring normal biological rhythm: limiting sleep time and constant wakefulness help to regain Establishes a healthy circadian rhythm, synchronizes it with the natural circadian cycle, and further promotes deep, high-quality sleep. Break undesirable reflexes: You can avoid the development of undesirable reflexes by limiting the time you spend sitting still or tossing and turning in bed. This way, after spending less time in bed, it will be easier for the patient to fall asleep again when they go to bed again. Build a stable sleep connection: Create a stronger connection between wakefulness and bed by keeping the same wake-up time during waking hours. Over time, patients experience less drowsiness before a specific wake-up time and fall asleep more easily at night.
Advantages and applicability of the three-piece treatment method
The three-piece treatment method has the following significant advantages:
Non-drug intervention: Compared with drug treatment of insomnia, the three-piece treatment method No additional pharmaceutical ingredients are introduced, thereby avoiding possible side effects and dependence issues. Good long-term results: After a short-term restriction and standardized training, most patients can improve their insomnia and effectively maintain good sleep quality. Individual differences can be adjusted: According to the specific conditions of the patient, the time and intensity of the three-piece set can be personalized to maximize the therapeutic effect.fruit.
As an effective insomnia intervention method, the three-piece treatment method has been widely used in clinical practice. Combined with the guidance and supervision of psychological counselors and the improvement of patients\' self-management abilities, this comprehensive treatment plan can help patients get rid of insomnia and rebuild good sleep patterns.
