>Any other ideas as to what to try to help me get to sleep?
Good to see someone here like me with just regular insomnia and not apnea. I was beginning to think I was all alone. Anyway, these are some of the things I’ve tried and have been most often successful, but I think my problem is hormonal. Try to get a little exercise in the morning. I know this is hard when you are tired, but maybe an early morning walk. Or put some mild yoga or exercise video in your tv and do it before your morning shower. Exercise relieves stress and gets the blood moving. Get some sunlight during the day, if possible, to set your inner clock. To Wind down: Watch boring TV in a dim light–something you basically have no interest in–mine, the history channel and house and garden. Read something boring in a dim light. Invest in a really boring magazines, or something you have really no interest in, preferably with small print. Mine–Field and Stream Do a search on the internet and type in "Sleep Cd". Try the search on MSN.com–a good one. You will find many links, sometimes with audio samples for hynosis tapes, ambiant music, or relaxing music and buy earbuds or audio pillow and listen in bed. I particularly like the ones that alter your delta brain waves and put you in a dreamlike state–some people don’t like them though, think they are creepy. Try to avoid high pitced flutes and violins in the music cds. I don’t know why people think they are relaxing. They make my teeth ache Piano and guitar are good. A lot of people just like listening to the surf or rain. Put a heating pad in your bed 15 minutes before you retire and shut it off when you get in. There’s nothing worse than getting into iced cold sheets. It’s enough to totally wake you up. Good luck!

I have tried the following, but still find I have trouble falling asleeep some nights: No caffine Warm Bath Benedryl Trazadone Halcion .5mg Ambien 20mg luvox at night mirapex (for plmd) And there are nights that none of these work. If I want to sleep thoes nights, I end up having to take very high doses of xanax, then i sleep for like 14 hours. Any other ideas as to what to try to help me get to sleep? I have some sucess with atarax if I take 50mg every day… but it makes me groggy durring the day… — -Jamie

Re: James problem. There is a new sleeping pill coming on the market in mid January. Name Lunesta. Check it out. I use Xanax. My Max dose is .75 mg and I only use it for 14 day. Then I take a break for a min of three days (I use something else) Then I can go back to Xanax. All sleeping pills are addictive and lose their ability to work in time. I do this to prevent addiction and developing tolerance. A very important question is why cannot you sleep? My problem is PLMD and Arthritis (RA). Best Wishes.

Do you have access to a doctor?
Response:
Yes. Lots of them. My issues are kind of complex, and I have multiple specialists invloved, and it gets a little hard to figure out what to do all the time, so I look to the support of others here for help. Thanks. — -Jamie "normc" <no…@socal.rr.com> wrote in message
