Can not fall to sleep even when taking medicine

you need to drink one cup of hot milk before to go to bed.. not warm .good luck

dweller is right, if you are not getting enough excersize through out the day you will not be able to sleep at night. You're body requires excersize to function properly and without it you aquire an adrenaline build-up that must be depleted or you will not be able to sleep regardless of what you do or take, drug wise. If you have a sedentary lifestyle, get moving, wear yourself out excersizing and I promise you, you won't have a problem sleeping. Maybe your body is trying to tell you something, listen to it, it knows what you need.

That's why you are not sleeping. Do you live in an area where you can run or walk when you get home? If so just a half hour walk or a 15 min jog every evening will make a tremendeous difference. Like I said your body HAS to deplete the adrenaline build-up you have accumulated through out the day, especially if you are sitting at a desk for 10 to 12 hours a day. If you aren't in an area where this is possible may I suggest you invest in either a treadmill or a stationary bicycle. Excersize is the KEY, any kind where you excert energy and get your heart rate up. Your body is crying out for some form of excersize and until you give it what it needs it will not reward you with a good nights sleep.

Shakoo - I, too, have a horrible insomnia problem on top of having sleep apnea. The trick for me, when taking prescribed sleeping medication, is to immediately go to bed after taking the medicine. No more reading, no more computer, no TV. Take the medicine, go to ged, turn off the lights. It used to take me hours to go to sleep, and then there would be times that it seemed even when taken the medication I still would not sleep and friends would say I was "goofy" the next day. There are many things that can interfere with sleep, some say eating 2 hours before bed can be disruptive if you have any problems with your digestive system. Some say things on your mind keep you up, aside from having therapy, I keep a list of "to do's" or reminders for the next day so I don't have to "try to remember" when I go to sleep. If you are a woman into menopause, menopause is one of the leading causes of insomnia (as is sleep apnea for men and woman) due to hormonal changes. Have you been to a sleep doctor? I was finally sent to a sleep doctor who sent me to a "sleep lab" who diagnosed my sleep apnea. Though your regular physician may be well meaning in presecribing sleeping pills, or your grabbing one of those over the counter ones, may be well meaning, a sleep specialist is the one who can best assess your personal situation. I hope this helps.

Stay up for +/- 32 hours, then go to sleep at the appropriate time.

Once you get your days and nights straight, then you will be able to sleep like a baby.
