Put some essential oils around the house Keep lights low Don't watch computer before bedtime Check blood pressure When you lay down put warm moist washcloth on your face and forehead.

Anonymous Coward User ID: 79387251 United States 01/21/2021 09:12 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I haven’t been able to sleep but few hours over last week and a half. I’ve tried melatonin been through about half a bottle during this period., sleep sounds galore. I’ve changed my diet and began exercising. Eating at certain times and ceasing liquids past certain times. I am on the brink of sleep and just stay there. I am going crazy. I am on lamotrigine for seizures since sept. Not until recently have I had this issue. I called my dr. Office to see if they would prescribe something to help me sleep. The dr. Who keeps rescheduling a month at a time. They refused until I saw dr. Feb 18 is wh n I’ll hopefully have this appointment. What do I do? I am scared I’m going to have seizure hallucination this event and anxiety is off the charts. Last time it happened I was screaming for my mom as the shadows swirled around the room and two upside down spinning pyramids in my hands. Please help me Quoting: Spirit Bomb Consult a doctor, YOUR doctor, insomnia is one of the side effects. Ask your doc if trazadone is an option for you. It's good at putting you to sleep quickly, like about 15 minutes after taking it. I take it every night, just to go to sleep. It's worth a shot. Important point here about the side effects of lamotrigine Call your doctor and don't ask for something to help you sleep (this will likely just trigger them to schedule a later appointment). Tell them you are having side effects from the medication they prescribed to you and that you need to be seen immediately. If they won't take you, get a new doctor. |

It will knock you out quickly and you will sleep great. I always felt amazing the next day after taking it due to such a deep sleep. But make sure you take it several hours before you wake up, otherwise you will feel groggy the next morning. Also NyQuil works great too. Also wine works great to fall asleep as well. Good luck! |

Use it when you do. then your sister gives you some secrets to survive off of 4-5 hours a night by power sleeping, skipping REM state. wonderful sis...love ya oh wait, no that isn't right ..that was sci-fy fantasy book...never mind Last Edited by TheFool on 01/24/2021 09:35 AM ***All in my opinion of course*** |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 79235101 United States 01/25/2021 06:32 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | The only way you could have insomnia that bad is if it's like the aliens or gangstalkers or something. Do you have people following you around different places, or does your head mysteriously bash into the pillow a few times just as your're dozing off? I would suggest some beer, but if it's the aliens and one of their psychics causing the insomnia, then they're going to want you to get that alcohol every night and will just hold you awake until you get the amount they want you to. One idea is to put some earphones on and listen to some music on youtube as your laying down, or watch their free movies until you're knocked out. Basically, if you're out of it you should fall asleep... but if that's not happening, the only thing that could cause that would be like the aliens. Unless you're a meth head or something? |
