1. Mrs. T. has been having trouble sleeping since she was diagnosed with depressi but she does not want to take a sleeping pill. What is the BEST alternative to help sleep? Over-the-counter medication Problem-solving therapy Lavender oil Art therapy

The best alternative to help Mrs. T. sleep without taking a sleeping pill would be lavender oil. Lavender oil is known for its calming and relaxing properties, which can help promote better sleep. It can be used in aromatherapy, such as through a diffuser or by applying it to the skin, to promote relaxation and reduce stress. Over-the-counter medication may not be the best option as it may not address the underlying issue of depression and could potentially have side effects. Problem-solving therapy and art therapy are forms of therapy that can help address the underlying issue of depression, but they may not provide immediate relief for sleep problems.
