Insomnia

What are the recommendations for improving sleep quality in people with psychotic disorders?

To improve sleep quality in people with psychotic disorders, interventions similar to those for the general population are recommended, starting with working on sleep hygiene practices:

  • Maintain a regular bedtime and wake-up time, even on weekends.
  • Create an environment conducive to sleep.
  • Avoid stimulants before bed.
  • Eat a light dinner.
  • Avoid exercising at night.
  • Limit screen time before bed.
  • Establish a relaxing routine that includes activities such as reading or listening to soft music.

Incorporating these measures can promote better rest and, in turn, help alleviate psychotic symptoms.
