Lilvanillachica1,

Sorry you're not getting much sleep right now. Being overtired can really make you feel worse, so maybe try to stay in bed for longer, even if you can't sleep all the time, your body will have a chance to relax. Hope you're feeling better soon. Take care.

This is probably my biggest problem as well.  If I get sleep, it's a good day, but if I don't then I'm a mess.  The problem is we have a one month old baby and I'm trying to help my wife out.  I feel so bad because she is carrying the load a night because she knows this is my problem.  I'm glad you had this post this morning because I was really feeling down about myself and sleep.  I would love to just sleep through the night like I used to!

It really makes getting though the day tough.

You should try melatonin.  Its a natural herb found in the health food stores.  It allows your body to produce more melatonin in your body that helps you go to sleep.
