I am 42 years old and for last 10 months have been getting only 3-4 hours of continuous sleep at night. Then I can't sleep and waste my time trying to and then feel tired the whole day. I can squeeze another 1-2 hours after 2 hours gap if I have alcohol, but don't want to get dependent. I am able to sleep at 10 pm though and have tried calming medicines like ashwagandha as well but hasn't helped much. Please help as it is causing symptoms of depression in me now.

Ans: Sleep depends upon your general lifestyle if you are having a sedentary lifestyle your sleep pattern will be hampered. Erratic sleep pattern could be a symptom of any mental or physical health issues.
You should visit a naturopath or Ayurveda professional for a proper diagnose to identify the cause rather than treating the symptoms.

I am 53 years old. from last many years , I am finding difficulty to sleep uninterruptedly which is 3 to 4 hours at a stretch. I sleep around 11pm daily and do not rest during day also. My work routine is not hectic and also not too stressful. Due to this I feel tired and unenthusiastic .Pl guide

Ans: You can try going for a walk after dinner, if you tire yourself physically you might sleep better. Try exercising during the day. Avoid stimulants like coffee after early evening.
This of course is generic advice, ideally you should meet a physician who specialises in sleep.

Health I am 53 years old. from last many years , I am finding difficulty to sleep uninterruptedly which is 3 to 4 hours at a stretch. I sleep around 11pm daily and do not rest during day also. My work routine is not hectic and also not too stressful. Due to this I feel tired and unenthusiastic. I exercise 2/3 times in a week which is not very vigorous and also I have a very light meal at night. Pl guide

Ans: Hi Swapnil,
Excessive exertion also makes it difficult for the body to relax. I suggest you relax for a few hours without digital exposure before going to bed. Have a bath or at least wash your feet, practice deep breathing, meditation for 15-20 minutes before going to bed. This relaxes the mind so you can get deep sleep, unlike going straight to bed after a hectic schedule. You can also try aroma therapy with natural oils to relax the mind.

Hi,,I am 45 years old and for the last 6-7 months I have been experiencing irregular sleeping patterns at night, significantly discontinuous sleep after 3 hours of deep sleep.I had suspected sleep apnea but that was ruled out by a doctor.I have tried meditation, melatonin and jaiphal but those only aid in sleep arousal and don't contribute much to continued sleep throughout the night..Kindly advice

Ans: Your continuity in sleep is affected because your quality of NREM sleep(Non rapid Eye Movement) is not good enough to give an undisturbed REM(Rapid Eye Movement sleep). Having early dinner before7 pm , experiencing the body as a wholethrough oil massages twice a week, review of the day as stock taking of the days event will help to sustain your sleep

Sir i got 81 % in class 12 and pcm 76.5% ,jee main percentile is 58.10 . I want to persue B tech CSE. I am living in delhi ncr.....kindly suggest some good options. Riyank Ahuja

Ans: Hello Riyank Ahuja.
Given your JEE score, it may not be possible to secure a free seat for CSE. However, there are numerous private colleges in Delhi NCR where you can visit the administration office in person to inquire about the availability of the CSE branch through management quota. Additionally, consider participating in the state-level counseling process to explore options. If necessary, be open to accepting an offer in any computer-related branch if CSE is not available.
Best of luck.

Career

Sir,my son got 5059 rank in JEE Advance and 5438 in JEE Mains. Please give the priority order among these. IIT Ropar (ECE), IIT Bhuvaneswar (ECE), IIT Patna (ECE), NIT Warangal (ECE), IIIT B CSE. We are in big confusion whether to chose these IITs or most reputed NITW? we are from HYDERABAD.

Ans: Hello Mallika
Congratulations to you and your son on your tremendous success in the JEE Advanced. Here is the preference order for you: (1) IIT Patna (2) IIT Ropar (3) IIIT Bhubaneswar (4) NIT Warangal (5) IIIT B CSE. There should be no confusion in choosing between IIT and NIT. Prefer IIT over NIT if your son is offered a seat there. You might be considering this from a broader perspective. No doubt, NIT Warangal can be a preferred choice compared to any IIT for you. Yet the prestige of IIT will always outweigh that of NIT. The final choice will ultimately be yours.
Best of luck.

passed 12th in 2023-2024 but I could not take JEE Advanced in 2024. Can I take JEE Advanced in 2025 and 2026? And what will be my 12th passing year?

Ans: Hello Nisha
JEE Adv 2025 is over. You are not eligible to appear for JEE 2026 as you passed the 12th in 2024. By rule, a student can appear twice in two consecutive years. i.e., your chances are for 2024 and 2025. Explore more options. Success in JEE mean success in life is not the proven equation.
