\"sleep\"<\/p>

To avoid a rebound of insomnia and even an eventual withdrawal syndrome<\/a> leading to resume sleeping pills - and often at higher doses - one should never abruptly stop the medication. The reduction must be gradual and it cannot be decided overnight in order to prep the body.<\/p>

WHEN SHOULD YOU START WITHDRAWING FROM SLEEPING PILLS?<\/span> <\/h2>

To put yourself\u00a0in the best conditions, you cannot\u00a0begin if you\u00a0are\u00a0overwhelmed by stress or if you\u00a0just went through a painful episode<\/a> in your life. \"The holiday period is conducive to embark on the path of withdrawal; the pace is generally slower and it is more relaxed. In all cases, discuss\u00a0with your doctor beforehand because there are things to put in place well before tackling directly when it comes to drugs,\" insists S\u00e9verine Brown, a psychologist specializing in the treatment of insomnia*.<\/p>

Thus, identifying the causes of one's\u00a0insomnia and gradually resuming control<\/a> of their sleep are key steps that should not be neglected for any reason.<\/p>
