Insomnia

[KingOfQueens]

Hope someone can help shed some light on my situation.

Up until around 4 years ago I slept perfectly. Then got into a bad relationship that caused nothing but grief for me. I got rid of the idiot a year later but ever since I've suffered insomnia.

Sometimes I sleep for 2 hours then awake for 36 hours and so on.

It's really getting to me now.

And before anyone says see a doctor, I have done, on numerous occasions. Only got told to have a warm milk or peppermint tea before bed and to go for a walk (not *** likely in my area!!)

Some ppplllleeeaaassseee help. I can't keep going on like this

TIA

Probably stressed you out, and now the new sleep pattern is the new habit. But I say that and do wonder at this claim you are asleep for only 5% on f the day. I suspect you drop off more but do not notice that you have.

If you have a really bad sleeping pattern I think your GP is a good choice, that it'd be difficult to sort easily with home remedies of whatever sort.

Poor you MM. It's a horrible thing. Boredom sets in and nothing seems to get me to sleep. Last night I cleaned the kitchen from floor to ceiling then started decorating!!

As you say docs will not do a thing :(
