I deal with this same problem!. It comes and it goes!. If you have kids, get them to bed a decent amount of time before you do; that way you can wind down yourself!. Taking a hot bath to relax always helps!. Also, try playing some classical type music turned low when you go to bed, it can help defer those neverending thoughts if you are listening to something!. I take Ambien!. It works pretty well!. The best medication for insomnia as far as my experience goes would definately be Lunesta, although it has one side effect that was a little bothersome and that was a weird taste in my mouth the next morning!. There is also an all natural pill called Melotonin which is a natural sleep aid you can get over-the-counter!. It's about $4 for a bottle of 100!. I usually never try things like that, but I swear by that stuff!. Good luck!.!.!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
It could a symptom of schizophrenia if you sleep 3 and 1/2 hours per night!. Otherwise, you should cut down coffee, tea and colas to drink water!. Cut down on sugar, cookies, cakes and other sweets!.
Exercise daily and don't overeat for supper!. Eat supper at 6 PM and don't eat in the evening!. Eat steamed vegetables during supper so that you will eat less meat!.
Always go to bed at the same hour and wake up at the same time every morning, even on weekends!. Don't watch TV in bed or listen to radio!. Don't work on a desk in your bedroom prior to going to bed!. In other words, don't go in your bedroom or lie in bed except for sleep!.
Be patient as regular sleeping hours can take a few weeks to a month to stabilize!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
