Natural supplements in my experience are most effective. 5-10 milligrams of melatonin, or a liquid calcium is always available locally , helps alot. A natural vitamin called CALM, or DREAMZ, anything high in magnesium and calcium out to do the trick! Sometimes one beer or one glass of wine if stress is a factor keeping your mind awake , massage, holosync earphone meditation will put you out, no matter who you are :)
i used nyquil....just not a whole dose
Go to a health food store and buy some good Valerian Root. It is a root herbal supplement to help relax and allow for sleep. If he can sleep at least 5 hours...tell him to take 2 about 30-60 mins before wanting to go to sleep. If not, only take one. When I take two, I'm out by the 60 mins. it will relax you first and you will notice it gradually. Then you go lay down, roll over and you're out. Its safe and won't make you groggy if used correctly. this is an herb that is actually found in valium also. Just not harmful...it has a FOUL odor though. Best sleep aid I've ever encountered.
These answers are good to help you sleep. Melatonin is good but a little strong. When I take melatonin I am groggy for 14-16 hours later.
