#2.  Sleep.  Allowing your body to sleep 7-9 hours per day helps the brain heal and build neurotransmitters.  It is important to go to sleep at about the same time and wake up at about the same time.  Early morning waking or not wanting to eat breakfast?  This could be hypoclycemia.  Try eating a slice of turkey before bed and placing 1/4 cup of fruit juice and 1/4 cup of nuts on the bed stand.  When you wake up, eat the juice and nuts.  It will help you go more quickly back to sleep!!
