I'm supposed to try and be neutral, but yes that section would do the job as well.[8D][8D][8D]

I guess getting off the Ambien I was going through withdrawals and was almost in a panic come bedtime - not fun. Seems I have way too many unresolved issues I keep stored away in the recesses of my mind - bad habit. I definitely enjoyed reading some of the responses, also knowing some of you are also suffering the same ills, helps! I'll try a combination of some of the above listed "cures" and see what happens.

Sounds good Mark, just make sure one of the combinations you try is NOT booze and pills. Not a good combination.

Try watching a movie that you've seen a bunch of times. Close your eyes and play the movie in your head while you're laying in bed. Almost always works for me.

2nd what deej just said. If you find something that works let me know, I have yet to find a good solution. I think I am like you, if I lay down and my mind starts working its over. I might as well get up and start a new day.

Sorry to hear about your problem. Maybe a try Thi-Chi ( spelling ) class. Seriously, wouldn't hurt. Get your chi a flowing with your ying and yang. Might reduce stress and release the bad ju-ju.

Man not sleeping sucks, but stay away from the tylenol, it has a full dose of aceteminophen plus a dose of benedryl as i recall. (been a while since my pharmacy tech days) Almost every OTC sleep medicine is benedryl (Diphenhydramine Hcl). There is one type of Unisom that uses Doxylamine but other than that its just benedryl, and since that doesnt work for you, there is really no sense in switching. I beleive rick mentioned Melatonin, which is the natural chemical produced by your body at night to put you to sleep, I would get that a shot, it should be with the vitamins and voodoo pills, but it works well.

If that doesnt work there is always the age old method of one burbon, one scotch, and one beer
