Do you count sheep at night to get to sleep until you wished you never saw another sheep? Do you lie there looking at the ceiling for hours?
Do you have insomnia?
Perhaps you feel like you need a good sleep all the time, but can’t actually get one.
Maybe your relationship is suffering because your tossing and turning all night disturbs your partner. Maybe you’re grumpy when you’re tired and your partner has had enough of your bad moods.
Insomnia can be a huge problem. And if you have it it’s probably a huge problem for you right now. Maybe it’s causing you some physical or mental health problems for example.
Now of course everyone has the odd night when they don’t sleep well, that’s not new. Maybe there’s something on your mind, or perhaps you took a nap in the afternoon and just don’t sleep well at night.
But there is a big difference between the odd night’s interrupted sleep and night after night of sleeplessness.
There can be different forms of insomnia. Perhaps you can’t get to sleep when you first go to bed, or maybe you get to sleep fine, but wake in the middle of the night and can’t get back to sleep then. Or you sleep fine till, say, 3 or 4, but that’s it.
There are many causes of sleeplessness. There are medical conditions which can cause insomnia as a side effect of the condition, and there are also medications which can have the same effect.
Or maybe your body has just learned a pattern of not sleeping and you can’t break it.
One of the first prescribed remedies is often drugs for sleeplessness. But who wants to take drugs, possibly for years or decades? There are other remedies too.
If you have serious insomnia you ought visit a doctor to diagnose or eliminate the possibility of medical conditions. If you do have an underlying medical condition it should be treated. But you may not. If not there is good news.
There are some natural cures for insomnia that work well. They can be quite cheap or even free and can work better than you might think.
Often you can successfully avoid the cost, and the risks, of prescription drugs.
