Feelin like crap

Still no good sleep...this is getting ridiculous. I feel nauseous, I have a pounding headache and absolutely no patience for anything...and I have to leave to go to class. I'm gonna stop on the way home and get Simply Sleep from CVS...hopefully then I can finally get a night of rest.

Pray for me girls...I don't know how much more of this I can take.

I just started using 'Passion Flower' extract, I was watching Dr Oz last week and he said this herb is taken at night to have a good nights sleep and helps with anxiety and stress, it relaxes the body, you wake up feeling refreshed..... I order it on line and used it twice and had a good nights sleep...

Chammomile tea is also good......good luck

dude!!
w t f?!?!?

this is not kool!!
you need sleep
im getting worried

even though i won't sleep tonight now.... here u go....

1) pills s*ck... they work, but then stop and unless you feel like taking 3 a night... its not worth it, and getting off them is HARD.

2) caffeine..... you will laugh at me, but do not drink it after noon... i swear and there is documentation, it can stay in your system for 15 hours.....

3) never be in your bed unless when you want to sleep. dont do HW there, dont sit there to watch tv. go there to sleep. I, like you stay up for hours because i cant fall asleep... but if you have the ability to get up and watch tv somewhere else, do that and then come back.

4) know when to nap... if i nap i will not sleep that night so i avoid it. but sometimes i know that that 45 min will be real sleep and at that point, its worth it... hope that makes sense

5) REAL silly but does help....... when you go to bed... no talking... it tgets the mind running again.... the mind is what is keeping you up.... if you can do this, then you should also clear your head..... and to do that......
Stand on one foot and count down from 100. when your done get in bed and close your eyes. This requires you to focus on your balance and count, and thus clearing some additional thoughts that need to be there

6) make sure FH understands... they dont get it, and its good they dont, but they have to adjust to you when you sleep. If you hog the bed, or dont wnat to be touched, they have to accept that.

7) adjust your diet, because being run down makes you more suseptable to getting sick and diet DOES help. Take iron pills...... anemia can play into blood flow at night which causes you to be restless, thus waking yourself up.

i can go on forever... insomnia *****... have had it since i was 16....FM if you want more tips

awwww

i would try the more natural way myself.....chamomile tea or even using a body lotion that's really relaxing smelling (B&BW made a night time one..it was like lavendar and something mixed). Someone else also makes a Sleepy Time body lotion and body spray. Stupid i know, but it's worked for me
