Two nights in a row my mind starts turning and I wake up and toss and turn for a few hours. It really sucks!! 6:00 am comes way to fast.

Couple shots of fireball before bed may help lol
I was having an issue and tried that "melatonin" (cant spell very good) and it put me to sleep and kept me there. My only problem was I was a bit drowsy the next day.

Wendi...that sucks, I know what that's like and it's no fun.

Suggestion; When you wake up in the middle of the night find something (someone) to do.....it will help you fall asleep .....I know that works for guys at least:D

I think I'm hooked on Melatonin also, one tablet allows me to sleep all the way through till alarm. Two tablets and it takes a long time to completly awaken, therefore I stick with one.
Drinking to much liquid close to bed time causes me to wake up and if some random thought pops into my brain I have a helluva time going back to sleep.

Too pumped up for that crackerbox ride?


I lay in bed and think about racing. Before I know it, my adrenaline level is through the roof and I can't sleep

I'd be happy with just not being able to sleep. I've been sleepwalking for about a year now, never remember anything the next day. I even thought my girl was messing with me, until she showed me walking out the front door on the serveilance camera.

Usually a little middle of the night activity helps Terri out and if not, it doesn't hurt either, lol.

I was having the same issue, now the wife got some oils to rub on my scalp at night and it makes a huge difference. I don't know how they work, but they do.

Carbon Yep, I'm lucky I live in the boonies. My girl found me walking down the road about 2 in the morning. When we stay at Bluewater, it's mandatory marina level so I don't walk off the balcony.

Yikes, not making fun of your situation, but is there some way you could tether yourself to the bed?

Sleep is overrated. Don't do it. You can get all the sleep you'll ever need when you're dead.

To have a bit less grogginess than Meletonin try Valarien Root. Its another herb to help relax your thoughts.

For those of you that have constant sleeping problems be careful because Sleep Apnea has all kinds of symptoms that you would never think would be related to Sleep Apnea.

Every great once in a while, like 2-3 times a year if I am worried that I won't sleep sound enough I take a Tylenol PM with the benedryl stuff in it.
OUT like a light ! ! !
The 25 mgs of diphenhydramine put me right too sleep.
There was some Advil PM that had 37 mgs and that was too much, still groggy in the morning.
25 just right :)

Well I slept through the night maybe woke up for a quick second, but that pill helped.

Tylenol P.M. has always worked for me, and no drowsiness in the morning.

You guys should really try ambien. It's not your typical sleeping pill. It helps you fall asleep but you still wake up occasionally the only difference is when you wake up in the middle of the night it keeps your mind from racing....kind of shuts your mind off and allows you to fall right back to sleep. Wash it down with a bottle of wine for extra strength. ;)

Grads, is Ambien over the counter?

No, prescription only. Every once in awhile I'll have friends ask me to try one...they are usually at their doctor asking for a prescription the next day. :)

If you are a "type A" person that can't get your mind to shut off once you wake up in the middle of the night, it is the ticket.
