As we get older and gain weight it is not uncommon to develop a sleep related breathing disorder. Often this causes insomnia, one of several complaints for sleep apnea. Medication can help you sleep but the quality is not good and it is the sleep quality that causes the weight gain and usually there is nothing you can do to stop it except treating the sleep disorder.

It isn't perfect but you may want to try the sleep test on this site and see how you score.
