I know we have had discussions re this - but isn't awful - when I get a very bad bout of it - I can be miserable the rest of the day and can't wait to get back to bed to get another bout of it - never win
funny sqad - you would have to drown me to sleep rather than bore me. We could get a water bed that would be a good way to drown. So unbelievable insomniac - don't worry being to doctors but you know yourself - pills are hard to find.
Never had this problem when I was working for 40 years or so - so I guess I am not industrious through the day enough that is the probem I think.
Hve you tried hops ? Make a pillow of dried hops - get them from a brew-it-yourself shop - and put the hop pillow under your regular pillow.
I once went hop picking, and slept like the dead every night of those 3 weeks.
atalanta - would try anything - but in the name of god would I buy hops and what are they. Hope there is no smell from them cos I used lavender once and the smell of the lavender had me up all night.
You may be able to find a shop which sells wine-making and beer-making supplies. Or find such a supplier on the internet. Hops are dried flowers of a creeper which sometimes grows wild in England, but are only ripe in the autumn. The scent is very sharp - a bit like limes. But if you want sleep, that scent will help you.
