Sleeping pills aren't working
My sleeping pills last 45 minutes tonight. They're only over the counter ones, sometimes they work other times they don't. I took one tonight in hope I can sleep the night through and not wake up at 2/ 3/4am, but no, tonight they lasted 45 minutes.
Me not being able to sleep frustrates my gf because I get really restless and wake her up and she has work in the morning, resulted in "sleeping" on the floor tonight, it's surprisingly comfy!
Ive tried no screens 30mins before sleep, reading, sleep meditation app, music... Yet still lying here wiiiiide awake. Grrr so annoying!!!!
@samipineapple Vallerian root. It's in the vitamin section. 3 or 4 of those capsules you can take and it will knock you out all night.
@TransAm85 Thanks. I think I have them but no idea where. I'll have to look in the morning, can't rummage too much incase I wake my gf up
@samipineapple Not sure if they still make it, but Sleepytime brand tea used to make a variety that contained valerian. Maybe look on amazon. I also have used melatonin gummy vitamins, and a drink called Neuro Sleep. Neuro is the brand, they have different flavors, but the sleep flavor contains melatonin and vitamins and stuff like that. Hope you can get some rest soon!
I have had success with long hot showers. It gives you the same feeling that you get when sitting in the sun on a hot beach which also makes me fall asleep.
Hope it helps.
