Go for a good massage with aromatherapy oils
every now and then.
It should help to detoxify your body and improve sleep.
Tell the aromatherapist your condition, and he or she
will know what oils to use.
As I have given in the other thread, these supplements
and herbs are common and can be found in sleep formulas
from Iherb.
Magnesium threonate
Melatonin
5-HTP
Valerian
Passion flower
Hops
Scullcap
Lemon balm
Ive been fighting insomnia myself and help my mother fight it too for years.
If ur looking for any supplements and if ur affordable to get one, those mentioned above are all highly recommended. each body type might suit diff, so u'll have to try out each. My mum settle with magnesium, i settled with passion flower. U can find these at any pharmacy, if just helps to relieve stress from ur mind, and hopefully put u better to relax.
Secondly, the root to your insomnia is ur stress issue, where u would have to set it aside after a set timer, lets say 9pm, then starting that time onwards just do other activities like watch movie or books or meditation to keep ur mind off the issues. |
Thirdly, like many mentioned, DONT FIGHT it.. i know its scary, i once was so scared of the night bcos i know the fight towards insomnia is coming again, but its a sure lose war once u paid so much attention to it. Let it flow naturally and just let God decides whether u can sleep or not. The more u wanna sleep, the harder it is to be.
Forth, this is what i personally do, i just kept telling myself that if i couldnt sleep i actually earn more time, ie if others have like 18 hours a day, i get to have 4 hours more. Then i can do stuff i like or stuff i dont have time to do during daytime. I treasure those times. And when i just couldnt sleep i wake up and i go to watch those dramas or whatever, then when my eyes are real tired or my mind is real tired i just lay back in bed. It doesnt really matter if i did sleep or not, just lay there and rest all my other part of body. This way, i dont give stress to myself and eventually it will come naturally.
Update us on ur situation and i hope we can help u~ Keep fighting, insomnia is not gonna kill a person, dont be scared. we've all lived through it. My mum still has it after like 5 years, and she's still living and kicking.
