I posted a few weeks ago about putting a shoe box over my clock/radio. I am still waking up every night but I am falling back to sleep faster.
I don't get upset and worried about getting back to sleep by a certain time BECAUSE I don't know what time it is. I am still taking rozerum to go down but it is much better. Also the room is darker. I have had problems with insomnia for over 10 years. This is working better that anything so far.
GOOD LUCK

I've had it since I was 6. Nasty little night terrors. But, nowadays, I try to give myself a good amount of sleep...however, I don't think I could go 20 days of with sleep. I would have to stay up at least...5+ of them. So good for you.

Some people don't like the sound of water however, I do and I use to have a aquarium in my bedroom. At night when I would wake up I would stare at the fish, they would calm me down and then I'd fall back asleep. We moved so I don't have it set up right now, however as soon as I can I plan to get it set up again. The aquarium will make gurgling sounds the entire night due the pumps and water circulating, so if you think that might bother you, put it in another room. We also had one in the living room.

I know for a fact that if I WERE to sleep...I'd need noise to fall asleep with. Otherwise, I'm most likely sick.
