My sleep pattern is completely messed up?!
Question: My sleep pattern is completely messed up!?
I am not a big sleeper, 4 hours a night is okay!. But over the past month or so, I'm sleeping every other day 3-4 hours only!. I don't feel tired even if I am!. I tried putting myself to bed early but I've spent 8 hours lying without falling asleep!. Teas don't do the trick either!.
What can I do!? I'm apprehensive of those sleeping pills and my face is starting to look really tired!. I want to sleep!! Any advice!? Thanks!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Answers:
First of all, stay away from caffeine!. Tea although does not contain caffeine, has theobromine,if i got it right, a relative of caffeine, still a stimulant!. It wont help u sleep!. Milk does have some chemicals, melatonin, if im right again, which will help u sleep so instead of tea, soda, coffee or chocolate, drink milk instead!. Second, the more anxious u get the more u wont be able to sleep!. Before going to bed, stop thinking of work or problems, they wont help u sleep either!. If ur into music, u may want to try listening to music, any music will do depending on what gets u to sleep!. Some are able to sleep when rock is being played, while others find pop or jazz relaxing!. I usually listen to buble or Il divo if i want to get some serious sleep, otherwise the music of jars of clay, maroon 5 or gin blossoms usually do the trick!. If it does not work, i just watch anything thats being played on tv and before i know it, i am asleep, just set ur tv timers though!. Lastly, if i need to sleep badly but cant, especially a night before major exams, these are times when anxiety is highest, i take sleeping pills!. Nope, not the ones that need special prescription but those that come over the counter, theyre usually just antihistamines, non-addictive!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
Drinking tea isn't going to help!. An average tea contains 20-30 mg caffeine per 100 ml!.
I used to have the exact same problem, but I did what you are doing and going to bed earlyer!. At first I would stay up all night, but you will eventually get used to it!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
