Insomnia Treatment Self-Care at Home You can do several things to prepare yourself for sleep. Exercise regularly. Aerobic exercise and general fitness are important to maintaining good health. You should exercise in the early part of the day and avoid strenuous activity before bedtime. Avoid large meals and excessive fluids before bedtime. Control your environment. Light, noise, and elevated room temperature can disrupt sleep. Shift workers and night workers especially must address these factors. Your body's circadian rhythm (biological clock) is particularly sensitive to light. Parents who need to sleep during the day may have to make child care arrangements to allow them to sleep. Medical Treatment Insomnia is a symptom not a diagnosis. As such, your treatment will be personal and will be focused on your underlying condition. Your treatment may include one or more of the following therapies: Improving sleep habits Correcting sleep misconceptions Controlling your sleep environment Behavior management Light therapy

good soft music...

When I can't sleep, I usually watch TV in bed until I fall asleep. Sometimes I'm asleep in 20 minutes, other times it takes a couple of hours. It's about the only thing that works for me, though.

i watch tv, some boring transmission...

I will playing the game or surfing internet till im tired.

not very often but sometimes i have this kind of problem and i take a medicin to relaxe

havin s** i am not jokin

I drink alot of warm milk.

Hmm, I saty awake watching something until I cant openmy eyes anymore

My computer :) Whenever i can't sleep i just turn on my computer and surf a few sites or watch a little movie. My whole day is spent on computer and now my nights too :)

I surf the net or read books.

i have this problem too.

I've used herbs like Valerian or Passion Flower. Those seem to work great as an alternative to sleep aids. I've also tried meditation and muscle relaxation techniques (deep breathing) these kinds of thingss.

- Sometimes something really sweet helps me to sleep! Sometimes I keep a snack size reese's handy for the middle of the night, if I can't fall back to sleep.

I take a medication called Lunesta, which has been prescribed by my doctor. It's the only thing that works for me. Even when I can sleep, I do not rest well without help.

I think making myself tired like doing excerise help me to sleep yea

If I cannot sleep, I will warm up some milk. That does the trick within 15 minutes of drinking it.

i never have trouble sleeping but maybe you can try these tips: * Wind down prior to bedtime * Do not smoke (nicotine is a stimulant) or consume caffeine * Try warm milk or a light snack before bed (if this doesn’t interfere with another treatment you are using) * Exercise daily, but not right before bedtime * Take a warm bath, but not right before bedtime * Keep a regular bedtime and rising time * Get in the habit of going to bed when you are sleepy and sleeping where you sleep best * Reserve your bed for sleeping only * Don’t have any clocks visible to you * Reduce the amount of time you allow yourself to sleep until you fall asleep easily (your health care provider can help with this form of “sleep restriction therapy” * Schedule worry time during the day and put worries out of your head when it is time to sleep; you can write them down on 3×5 cards, and then let go of them * Get up if you have not fallen asleep in 15 minutes and practice a relaxing activity (e.g. handwork, reading a boring book) until you feel sleepy
