sleep is vital to good health.sleeplessness causes anxiety and healt problems.you can get relief to your anxiety by taking supplements like pumpkin seed oil,chamamiila, valeriana,theonie,5 htp, st johnswort,.For sound night peaceful sleep you can try melatonin and gaba supplemets whih help alot. but first you should have a thorough medical check up. may be stress is the cause of your condition.

Yes you are right Sam its Easter so we can lounge & nap

You are right as well & may be keep a note how you feel at the mo & see over the month if there is a pattern , that way if there is , it can seem less stressful as we no what the reason could be

Hi Sam, sorry you are going through this,

I recently had to do over 30 hrs being awake in order to regulate sleep. Was given sleeping pills that didn't work so had to resort to a long waker. I've slept well since apart from a cough keeping me up one night. I hope you don't have to go through a long waker to get back to normal. All the best xxx
