Sleep

[steven14]

I wake so many times at night find it hard to go back to sleep.this is causing me to have headaches in morning

Do you try anything to help you fall back to sleep?

[steven14 in reply to _Reba_]

I just lie there and think of things I think I have just got in to bad habits along with the anxiety

I use lavender oil before bed. I just apply it to my temples and I'll soon start feeling tired. Also hot drinks work great too.

There is medication that can help but I prefer to not use any.

Hi steven14, I could imagine having headaches from poor sleep. Have you tried listening to relaxation/imagery before falling asleep as well as deep breathing? It calms the mind and body. Should you wake up in the middle of the night, once again start the deep breathing and hopefully it will lull you back to sleep. I do this both at night and first thing in the morning to calm the morning anxiety. It works.... Wish you well.
