I've tried every over the counter med I could and none worked. Although my son Toby takes melatonin and it works for him. I just hit up my doctor or dentist and ask for sleep meds. I've tried ambien, ambien cr, and some other muscle relaxer (can't remember the meds name - I don't get enough sleep). The regular ambien works best.

Even though I only work twice a month now, it still screws up my sleep schedule. Some nights I'm dead dog tired at 8:30, other nights I can't fall asleep until midnight. Same goes for waking up - somewhere between 4 and 7 a.m. and I never know which. <BR/><BR/>If you can stand it, get up early to exercise.Nurse Heidihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05701919857269926765noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17456507.post-70350673253806625812008-09-03T09:52:00.000-05:002008-09-03T09:52:00.000-05:00Nothing like those voices in your head huh?

Do you just keep thinking, "One night I am just going to crash." It never happens. When I was PP I would be up all night trying to decide on a calling or worrying about a child.

Then, the next day I usually end up throwing it away undone, but at least I didn't have to try and remember it during my sleep cuz that is what tends to keep me up all night.

Just a once-in-a-while solution of course. I wouldn't recommend it for every night.

It is awesome, also Tylenol P.M. is also great. I also have the good ol' thyroid problem. I have been on medication for 11 years, and I hate the sweaty stinky hot flashes. They are awful!
