Tired. Not tired.

5 Replies

I am tired. But then im not. I don't sleep in anymore for some reason and I hate it! I had a very bad day today and my body could use some rest but I seriously can't stand the thought of waking up and being in hell all day tomorrow. Ugh what I would give to just have my problems go away.

Have you tried melatonin? It's natural and non addictive and will help you sleep!

Hello Falluna

I've not heard of Melatonin I suffer with bad sleep however I'm on fluxitine so I worry about mixing tablets.

Do you have any advice that could help me?

Thanks

Melatonin is natural. You can buy it in the vitamin section of a store. It's exactly what your body makes to get sleepy. I would call your doctor of course first and see if it's okay to take with anything else you are taking (it should be because it's natural) and if they say yes ask them a good starting dose. Like i said it's none addictive. If you do start taking it, take it like an hour before you want to go to bed. I hope this helps!

Hello Rissa

I am sorry to hear about your sleep problem I completely understand. I have bad sleep problems and have come to terms with only getting so much sleep but some days when I'm exhausted I just cry and think why me!! I really envy people or fall asleep straight away and only wake up when the alarm goes off!! Thing is I still use an alarm but always wakes up before it's the aniexty in me in case I didn't wake in time lol

I wish you a peaceful night sleep tonight!!

I didn't fall asleep till about midnight and I kinda forced myself to sleep in today. I would wake up and then close my eyes and try and go back to bed. And yes I have tried melatonin before and it never really worked for me. My mom actually bought it for me because I had a bad problem with sleeping pills at one point. This was many years ago. I am 20 now and when I used sleeping pills I was about 16. But thank you everyone for the kind words! Im up and im gonna try and have a good day!
