Can't sleep

For the last few weeks I've had a lot on my mind, which has made it hard to fall asleep at night. I know that I just have to let my mind relax but it's hard. Anyone out there know of any secrets of how to get to sleep during a restful time??? Any suggestions would help. I really need to have a full eight hours sleep with no interruptions.

I've struggled with insomnia for years and it definitley is worse when I have a lot on my mind. Lately I've been taking Melatonin before bed and I sleep good. I take the kind that dissolves under your tongue ( Webers brand- you can get it at shoppers Drug mart). Good luck and stop thinking LOL

Ooo, insomnia's hard...I've struggled with it since I was a child. It's the most common symptom I experience when anxious or stressed.

It's so hard to deal with, too. To be honest, the thing that has historically worked the best for me has been reading my old Constitutional Law textbook! It's just dreadfully boring, and if I force myself to read it (or some other terribly dry book), it truly helps!

Otherwise, I write...many of my blog posts are written during the night time hours, frankly. Usually when I've expended some mental energy writing a post, I start to feel a little tired.

I don't know that either of these suggestions will help - I'm looking forward to seeing what others have to say, because I struggle with this so regularly.

BLessings!
