how about hot chocolate. Hersheys makes a hot chocolate with out the cafiene and so on for nighttime relaxing. Sometimes I drink that while reading while listening to relaxation music after a long bath in bath oil or bubbles that have a relaxing smell to them. The last few nights Ive used my therapist voice reading a couple relaxation exercises.
When I wake up at night I don't stay in bed tossing and turning. I get up and try to write down at least one thought in my journal and then take another bath. by the time I get back in bed Im ready to sleep again.
Im told going to bed at the same time every night and not drinking so much soda/coffee helps too. Coffee I can do without. Soda well trying, regular bedtime forget it I never make it to bed at the same time every night.LOL
I wake up in panics too. Mines from nightmares. Thats partly why I sleep in the early mornings so that when I do wake up its daytime. oh well its off to bed for me.
Naah the mallots not a good idea. LOL
