CBT-I
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I) is a structured program designed to treat insomnia, a common sleep disorder. CBT-I is considered the first-line treatment for chronic insomnia and is recommended by various medical organizations, including the American Academy of Sleep Medicine. It's important to note that CBT-I is generally considered a safe and effective treatment for chronic insomnia, and it focuses on addressing the underlying causes of sleep difficulties rather than relying on medications alone.
