Can't sleep any suggestions

For the past week or two I have only been sleeping about 2-4 hours max and I my tail is dragging. Six hours is my usual time and that seems to be plenty, but as of late I just toss and turn staring at the darkness. Any suggestions would be great.

Eat two cheeseburgers then follow it up with 2 bowls of vanilla ice cream.

Vigorous sex right before bed...preferably with a partner.

I say call your doctor if it doesn't go away. I go through that when I am stressed.

One thing I learned the hard way is to not take a multi-vitamin before bed...the B-complex is like natural speed

One Benadryl tab should give you 8 hours of deep sleep (I weigh in around 270..maybe a half tab if you have a more reasonable weight)

Take care of the problem that has your mind working overtime.

Wash that down with a shot of Nyquil and you will really be good.

I taped 8 hours of Bob Kessling & Coach Fulmer on the Phillip Fulmer show. If you can stay awake watching that, you should seek immediate medical assistance.

had a similar problem......take some melatonin about 1 hour before you want to go to sleep, it works for me.
