20. Sleep

Sleep difficulties are very common among those with depression and some people even give up, only sleeping 4 hours a night or so, but the body needs a minimum of 6 solid hours of sleep nightly, and 8 is better. If you are having sleep issues, make sure you keep off regular schedule of bedtime and getting up. There are many natural sleep remedies you can discuss with your nutritionist such as lemon balm, 5-HTP, melatonin, and relaxing teas such as valerian and chamomile.
