I'm like that. I have difficulties falling asleep and then staying asleep. If my sleep is disturbed I usually take hours to fall back asleep if at all. Last night I fell asleep around 2:30 or 3 am and I woke up at 6:30, unable to go back to sleep. I used to survive this by taking naps on weekends, but my husband started working weekend overnigbt shifts so I can't anymore as we have kids an he needs his sleep. The best thing for me is to cover my windows well so it is dark and taken over the counter sleep aids. I take unisom which is not addictive. There are two different types, the type I take is a double dose of benadryl (dyphenhydramine). It's not a guarantee, but it helps.
