Can't sleep - Insomnia - What do you do?

Yes, I do have Insomnia. What I do is very simple and it works. I either read until I fall asleep or I work online and make money until I fall asleep. It works.

deep breathing and stretching, also cutting off the tv, and playing either some calming music or calming environmental sounds, and then finally, for me, getting into bed with a good book and my cat. Tried the medication thing, but did not like the effect.

I take medications to help me fall asleep. I have bipolar and sometimes sleeping is an issue. On occassion we have to change the meds. One thing I found out was I took the medications too early. My doctor has me taking them 20 minutes before bed. I then do a puzzle until I feel sleepy.

Oh...i have trouble falling asleep since my baby was born and until now..i go to bed late at night..i watch television so that i can feel sleepy, but i know it's not good for my health and eyes but i can't really sleep early in the evening..nope, i don't go to the doctor to have some check-up but i tried remedies like drinking warm milk, and i read a book that the best remedy is having a warm shower, warm milk to drink and not having a nap on the afternoon..

My aunt takes regular Tylenol PM. She takes two of them every night and she says they work wonders. Shes been doing it for years so I guess they work. I don't care to take anything myself so I either have some ice cream or cheese, no joke it works. Maybe it works b/c its dairy and they say milk makes you sleep too, I don't know. But I know having some cheese or ice cream works for me - which it is not often - but when insomnia does strike, that is what I use. I hope you find something that works for you. P.S. what I don't do, is to do anything to stimulating, read, watch tv, play games, surf the net, etc. as that will really keep you awake.....good-luck.

first of all stop thinking,usually people start thinking as soon as they lie down on bed,when we work hard whole then i dont think we will face this insomnia problem

when the times comes that i can't sleep ..i force myself to feel asleep ,,and i'll do anything to make me asleep ,.

THe only cue is to forget about the whole world once you go to your bed for sleep. When you do not have anything to worry, you will be free. Leave everything "that you cannot change" to God. You will definitely get a good sleep.
