" Try Melatonin, get it at any store in the vitamin section. I have had sllep problems from severe to a little less but this is working for me again. It comes in 3-5 mg. I take a 3 mg half an hour before bed. This is a natural product that our bodies make anyway. Sometimes we just get low or depleted in our systems for whatever reasons. Good luck. "

" I've had insomnia for as long as I was a baby, so for the most part, I've gotten used to it. But it still sucks sometimes.

How do I know that I've had it since I was a baby, one thing my mom told me...was, "we were LUCKY if you slept 6 hours a night." I wouldn't be sleeping, but I wasn't cry. So, I was awake, just awake. lol "
