yes i have trouble sleeping i barley sleep at all sometimes less than an hour a night sometimes no sleep at all. I sleep alot less than what you do. I know its draining but try natural sleep tablets.

I have a terrible time sleeping. It usually takes me an hour or two to fall asleep. And then I wake up about 10 times during the night. When I wake up, I don't feel like I slept at all. I am exhausted all day and I think its beause I never reach REM sleep.

yer, i have great problems sleeping, i can give you a few things to try, ill give you some ideas and you could let me know how you get on if you like. Do you drink tea or coffee or have other things with caffine in? this includes: cola, energy drinks, some hot drinks. This greatly affects your sleep, try and drink these things only in the morning.
Try introducing a good routine for before bedtime, time to unwind and relax, maybe a hot bath, a drink, maybe a small snack or some reading. This includes having a specific bedtime which you need to try and stick to, this will help your body (over a few days or a week) get into the habit of knowing that this is the time to go to sleep.
If you cant get to sleep within an hour try getting up doing something (going to the bathroom) or reading abit. then go back to bed and try again.
One more thing is try and avoid watching tv or being on the computor too close to bedtime, i know this might seem hard but if sleep is that bad its worth a shot, watching tv or computor screens stops the release of melatonin which is the sleep hormone.
These are just a few ideas, please message me if you like and i can help. If things dont improve or get worse it might be an idea to go and see your GP there are also natural remedies you can buy over the counter like 'kalms'

Hope this is helpful to you.
