I can't Sleep...HELP!!

In the last three nights I have gotten a total of 6 hours sleep. I just can't fall asleep.

What is wrong with me??? I can't fall asleep and its so upsetting. I am physically and mentally exausted. I have been taking Tylenol PM but it does nothing.

Any suggestions??? I feel awful and dread going to sleep now....I almost feel like I forgot how to fall alseep.

Are you avoiding caffiene four hours before going to bed...that can have a delayed effect.

Try excercising before bed...or when you get home from work. Also, do you leave the tv on?

ETA: It could be stress, or tension. Excercising will definitely help then.

I do exercise in the evening...and rarely def. avoid caffiene. But for some reason I just can't fall asleep.

I try not to think about anything...or just think about good things...but nothing works...I think my mind is racing and i cant stop it.

You might be stressed about your wedding, details, etc. I know that when I was planning my wedding, I had trouble sleeping sometimes. Is work stressful right now?

Don't get your self all worked up, try and relax.

when I was teaching...I used to have to force myself up on sunday mornings...so that I could go to bed on Sunday nights...


try forcing yourself to get up before you normally do...then you will be extra tired...and then no naps...
