What can someone do to make sure they fall asleep if they are at risk of Alzeimer's? My aunt is at risk due to the illness running rampant in my family. Menopause has been disturbing her sleep for years now and I guess she's in a pattern now where she can't sleep more than 2 hours at a time, about 4 in total per night. Brain MRI doesn't show any sign of alzeimer yet, she is 50, but she is aware of the importance of sleep and not sure what to do. She told me that drugs that typically make you sleep don't give you the right quality of sleep to help delay the onset of the disease. Is this true? Do you have any recommendations for her?

Can you ever truly heal from complex PTSD? Or is therapy just a drop in an ocean? Feels that way..

Do you happen to know much about the Caucasian Shepherd breed and what kind of working dogs are they are?. I come from an area with lots of them and I assumed their main function is to protect the herd because they're so huge, but at the same time I know that annual sheep migration across mountains with these shepherd dogs has been happening here for centuries. Do you think these dogs could serve a double function, to protect but also to move the sheep?

Thanks in advance!!

Historically and globally, the most successful (some argue only) solution to affordable housing has been heavy government subsidies. Is this on the table? Why/why not?
