Sleeplessness
Insomnia or sleeplessness is a common complaint of women as they enter into menopause. Insomnia means having trouble falliig asleep or staying asleep or the feeling that your sleep was not adequate for you. For women who are having night sweats, their sleep is broken by frequent a-wakening and therefore not refreshing. Generally once the night sweats are controlled a normal sleep pattern returns. If it doesn&39;t it may be, or have become chronic insomnia. How do you know?
If you suffer from insomnia every night or most nights for a period of one month then you have chronic insomnia. If you&39;re not having night sweats then it&39;s time to look for other causes of sleeplessness. Depression and anxiety disorders are the most common causes of chronic insomnia.
If you feel depressed you need to be checked by a qualified health care provider. Movement disorders such as restless leg syndrome are second on the list of insomnia for them, there are new medicines that may help. Other common causes are shift working, and pain.
In up to 30% of people with chronic insomnia no cause can be identified. Medical treatment of these people has generally been with sleeping pills. It is estimated that 25% of the adult population in America took some type of medicines for sleep last year. It is generally agreed that sleep- ing pills should only be in the lowest dose and for the shortest possible time.

根据内容回答题。Trying to Find a PartnerOne of the most striking findings of a recent poll in the UK is that of the people interviewed, one in two believes that it is becoming more difficult to meet someone to start a family with.Why are many finding it increasingly difficult to start and sustain intimate relationships? Does modern life really make it harder to fall in love? Or are we making it harder for ourselves?It is certainly the case today that contemporary couples benefit,fit in different ways from relation- ships. Women no longer rely upon partners for economic security or status. A man doesn&39;t expect his spouse to be in sole charge of running his household and raising his children.But perhaps the knowledge that we can live perfectly well without a partnership means that it takes much more to persuade people to abandon their independence.In theory, finding a partner should be much simpler these days. Only a few generations ago, your choice of soulmate (,L&39;J2Jk) was constrained by geography, social convention and family tradition. Although it was never explicit, many marriages were essentially arranged.Now those barriers have been broken down. You can approach a builder or a brain surgeon in any bar in any city on any given evening. When the world is your oyster (牡蛎), you surely have a better chance of finding a pearl.But it seems that the old conventions have been replaced by an even tighter constraint: the tyranny of choice.The expectations of partners are inflated to an unmanageable degree : good looks, impressive salary, kind to grandmother, and right socks. There is no room for error in the first impression.We think that a relationship can be perfect. If it isn&39;t, it is disposable. We work to protect ourselves against future heartache and don&39;t put in the hard emotional labor needed to build a strong relationship. Of course, this is complicated by realities. The cost of housing and child-rea- ring creates pressure to have a stable income and career before a life partnership.What does the recent poll show? 查看材料
