I think I have sleep anxiety, or insomnia. At least every other week, I have a night where I have to take my melatonin pill. This week, I woke up in the middle of the night Sunday, slept well Monday, and had to take a melatonin Tuesday and last night. Every time I have trouble sleeping, I worry about it all day, worrying that I'll never sleep well again, that the melatonin will stop working, that I'll have trouble sleeping next week, etc. I'm getting tired of it.

You might want to talk to your doctor about the problem. It might be that you would benefit from a sleep study to determine what the problem is.

Some medications designed to help you sleep, ironically can have side effects that can prevent you from sleeping. Definitely recommend bringing it up to your Doc, good luck!

If I'm not asleep in 20-30 minutes, I give up.
I go to bed at 10:30. |

I go through "the routine" of going to bed but will lay awake all night. So, I figure its best to keep myself busy. Laundry, dishes, dusting, collages, etc. I can honestly say my home is never a mess if you look at the positive side lol. Wish I could be of more help.
