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?
It’s possible you have insomnia.
Perhaps you’re always tired. Always feel like you need a good few hours sleep, but can’t get it.
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.
It’s not unusual to have a few nights when you don’t sleep perfectly. Maybe you’re worried about something. Everyone has those.
That’s the odd night, no problem there. But what about where it’s night after night week after week?
And there’s different types of insomnia. Perhaps you can’t get to sleep from the moment you get to bed. Or you can get to sleep then but wake at 3 am and can’t get back to sleep. Or you sleep fine till 5 and that’s it.
And there’s a wide range of causes for insomnia, or sleeplessness. There are, for example, some medical conditions which can cause it. And there are also some medications for various medical conditions which can also cause insomnia.
And in some instances it’s just that your body has learned not to sleep at night and you don’t know what to do to help it unlearn 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.
A visit to the doctor is well worthwhile for those with serious insomnia to see if you have a medical condition that ought to be treated. But if your just suffering from general sleeplessness there is good news.
There are excellent natural cures for insomnia. They can work extremely well and are often very inexpensive or free and can work better than you might imagine.
You can sometimes avoid both the risks and the cost of taking prescription drugs.
