Really Need Help

[coolgirl]

I really need help on something I have been having trouble sleeping for the past almost 2 weeks. I am tierd and exhausted. I am having a hard time falling alseep it almost takes me up to 2 hours to fall asleep. I have tried advil pm that didnt work, tynonel pm that didnt work, I tried a stress/sleep pill that worked a couple of months ago but when i started taking them again eventually somehow my system is not responding to it. If anyone has taken sleep medication off the counter would anyone recommend me a good medication that can knock me out in 5 minutes. Please, I need to sleep I'm tierd.

melatonin

 

plus relaxation techniques... ie: counting sheep, relaxing each part of your body, or perhaps a relaxation recording on your ipod while laying in bed.

Why can't you sleep? up to 90% of people can't sleep due to stress.

I've struggled with insomnia for about a year now, so I know how awful it is.

 

I've found that wearing earplugs helps tremendously; the quieter it is, the easier it is to fall asleep. Also, if I'm too warm I can't fall asleep so I have an easier time doing it if I kick off my blankets.

 

If you're really wanting to do a prescription sleep aid, my mom was just started on Lunesta and she says it works wonders...but it's pretty expensive.

I second the MELATONIN advice. Works excellent for me and I have trouble sleeping due to my marriage issues. It's natural, I've felt no side effects and I sleep like a rock. Go get some, try it. Take a hot shower before bed too.

 

Good luck
