[quote=Anonymous]Lifetime insomniac here. My first question is, since this is new to you, what is going on? Are you having health issues, are you in perimenopause (sleep disturbances are common), etc? May be worth a medical checkup. For sleep, I've tried everything. Things that help me are make sure your physical environment is conducive to sleep. Cool temperature, good mattress and pillows, quiet, dark. Google sleep hygiene - having a routine is also important. I use a variety of methods to help me get to sleep, with varying levels of success. My current regimen is that I wear an eye mask to block light and wear small earbuds and go to sleep listening to a sleep meditation and/or music on Insight timer. Other things I've done are using breathing methods and other strategies. I recently read about something called cognitive shuffling that I will try soon. HTH [/quote]
