What is the best remedy for a chronic insomnia?

neil hillbarry asked:


I’ve been sleepless for 3 consecutive days. I tried melatonin from GNC but it just made me dizzy but not sleepy at all. I’ve been feeling backpain and dizziness due to sleeplessness. What are some practical solutions to my insomnia? I’ve been an insomniac since I was a teen. Pls. advise.

    3 days isn’t chronic – the best thing to do is stop worrying about it, find something restful to do at night and your body will let you sleep when it is good and ready

    I drink a herbal tea called sleep time extra, it has chamomile and Valerian root it sort of helps, I get really drunk once in a while, that helps also. But I have not really found anything that works for me. This link does offer some suggestions also.

    I’ve had insomnia since I was a teenager too. It’s awful. My story is at. I am now 56. A list of things I’ve tried for sleep is at. I hope you will find some help. My doc recently switched my meds around and I’m starting to sleep sounder, although not as long as other people. Check out my homepage too at. Chronic insomnia can wreck your health and immune system, so it’s important to find a doc who will work with you on it to find a med that works for you, but doesn’t give you too many bad side effects, like next day hangover. Of course, you could always try some OTC sleep meds first. If they work, you won’t need to see doc for something stronger.
