Lifestyle and home remedies
In addition to your treatment plan, lifestyle changes that may help include:
- Environmental changes. Make your sleep area and kitchen safer to avoid injury. Also, consider storing foods typically eaten during a sleep-related eating disorder episode outside the kitchen or placing locks on cabinets and the fridge.
- Good sleep habits. Develop regular sleep and wake times. Try to go to bed and get up at the same time each day, including weekends. Get enough sleep every night.
- Focus on staying healthy. For example, avoid alcohol and tobacco.
