4 Reasons Why Ask DoctorBase™ is the Most Efficient Way to SEO and Establish Your Brand Online

  1. Ask DoctorBase™ is a free service for patients on the DoctorBase platform - currently servicing over 6 million American patients of record.
  2. All answers submitted by healthcare professionals (you) are for entertainment purposes only and do not constitute doctor-patient relationships. All patients must agree to this before using Ask DoctorBase™.
  3. Our software and our Marketing Engineering staff review each answer and optimize your answers for keywords valuable to your specialty. It is a well kept secret that doctors (you) - not SEO consultants - are the ones who have the most valuable content prized by search engines. Ask DoctorBase™ "unlocks and optimizes" your content in the most efficient manner possible with today's technology.
  4. Finally, the doctor who provides the most popular answer - "the Featured Answer," gets an added benefit by allowing patients to write rave reviews about your expertise - reviews that are submitted to both Google and Google Local through our Preferred Data Provider relationship.

Ask Dr. Molly if you have questions or want a personal session on how to best use Ask DoctorBase™ for maximum marketing impact.

Strange Sleeping

Over the past couple of years I have been having, what I believe to be "strange" sleeping habits. Here is a list of the best way I know to describe what is happening:

1. Inability to move while asleep (?) or awake (?)

2. Very loud electrical noiseor booming noise followed by intense headache or nausea

3. Sounds like I am underwater whooshing drowning noise

4. Unfamiliarity or extreme confusion (intense confusion)

...etc.

Can someone please help me to understand what's going on? I can't sleep.

This sounds a lot like sleep paralysis, a form of parasomnia. I suggest you make an appointment to see your mental health provider. Until you are able to see your provider, here is a link for more information to help you understand some of your sleep experiences.

Here are 12 things that you can do immediately to improve your body’s circadian clock.

Wake up and go to sleep at the same time everyday. Ideally, asleep by 10pm and up around 6am.

Use a salt lamp in your bedroom as a way to reset your circadian clock. Turn it on in the morning and after the sun sets at night, candles are also an option. Avoid full spectrum light after sunset.

Be sure to get mid-day sunlight, this will help increase serotonin (happy) and melatonin (sleep).

Eliminate exposure to phones, tablets, computers, and television 2 hours before designated bedtime

Sleep in completely dark room, you should not be able to see your hand in front of your face

Avoid excessive fluid intake after 8pm

Avoid opening the mail or watching the news in the evening

Avoid checking and responding to email in the evening

Settle any conflicts before going to bed

Use lavender essential oils to help promote calm
