Trouble sleeping? You’re not alone.
A 2013 study by the CDC shows over 9 million Americans use sleeping pills to get a good night’s rest.

What does the CDC’s study say about society? Are we too quick to rush to our doctors, asking for a prescription at the first sign of problems in our lives? Are pills the answer to conditions like insomnia, or are there better ways to get through those restless nights?
When you get a moment, check out the CDC’s findings in the article listed below.
