Hi! Welcome aboard!

So you are having trouble sleeping, eh? This is quite common. I sleep a great deal better than I once did ages ago. With my psychiatrist's input we changed up the times I took the dosage for one of my medications. This really helped. Today, if I forget this medication before bedtime I have a terrible night - usually with racing thoughts and agitation.

I also changed my 'sleep hygiene'. Namely I have removed all electronics - including cell phone - out of my bedroom.

Also, I was diagnosed with sleep apnea. While I had a great deal of trouble getting used to the CPAP machine, I did notice I was sleeping better.

I think insomia affects each individual differently. One path is meds with therapy. Another is the natural path of supplements and aromatherapy and meditation. Other better sleep suggestions that come to mind is to only use your bed for sleep. Only go there when actually ready to sleep. Herbal teas. Reducing technology time an hour before bed. Light blocking curtains. Appropriate room temperatures. Journaling gratitudes before sleep.
