I'm having trouble falling asleep, too. It's been going on for about 6 months. This has been a very stressful time at work. In the past, I've tried yoga, relaxation techniques, breathing exercises and visualization with varying degrees of success. The past couple weeks, however, have been particularly difficult, so I talked with my doctor and am trying some sleeping pills to see if that can help get me back in a better sleep pattern.
It sounds like you are able to sleep, but it takes a long time to fall asleep. I wonder if your body clock or natural sleep cycle is part of your challenge. A couple things that help me sleep are making sure the room is cool & dark, covering the clock so I don't see the time, and white noise--I use an air filter with a fan--or ear plugs.
Hi. I have a lot of sleep problems. When I go to bed I take around 3 hours to start sleeping. Until that, my head doens´t stop with a lot of thoughts. My most feeling is frustation and lack of peace with myself. I only start having rest aroud 6 AM, then I have to sleep till 12 am, because if I wake at 9 or 10 am I don´t feel ready, my head is tired and with lack of strengh to face the day.
Today I feel the need to sleep on the afternoon too, I sleeped and waked up with more restless feeling and more energy. But I know at night this will create more problems to have a good sleep.
This cycle repits too often...1 or 2 times a week I have to take medicamentation to anxiety for me to be able to recover from bad sleeping nights.
I´m not having recovering nights, so it will me more dificult for me to decrease my anxiety, my nervous system are not being repared at night.
I tryed yoga before go to sleep, it make´s me feel go, but it´s not enough.
