there’s no reason why I’m not sleeping well
I’m active during the day, I go the gym, I limit my coffee and sceentime before bed. Just not sure
I’ve got into a habit of it i think..! FrustratingI’ll have a look at the spray thank you x

Hi,
i keep waking up at 5-5:30am and I’m exhausted
I thought you could buy melatonin over the counter but clearly not…. Has anyone got any herbal remedies or anything I can ask my gp for tomorrow when they’re open? (Short term..)
Last time I had this he put me on sleeping tablets for a week but they left me with awful brain fog and I wasn’t able to drive so I can’t take them again.
My days are really busy and I should be exhausted at night but I’m not
thank you x

I have gallstones & sometimes wake up with awful back pain. I also had a section nearly a year ago now and some times I think it could be a mixture of the two. Not sure if any of these are relatable to you x

I don't think so I don't have any other symptoms. I got a new pillow today so I'm hoping it'll help

There are many reasons for insomnia and sleep problems. Are you depressed or anxious? Entering the menopause? Have any underlying health issues? Your GP will help you to pinpoint the cause hopefully.
Ive just been prescribed escitaloprám for depression and anxiety, and have already seen a tremendous improvement in my sleeping after a week, as I was waking several times during the night which was making me horrendously exhausted during the day.

Anyone got any advice for me. The last few months my back has been hurting when I'm sleeping and waking me up. I thought maybe it's my mattress but I've been away a few times and after the first night in the new beds it happened there as well.
My dad said his was better after removing his heated blanket, I did that made no difference same with the mattresses protector. I put the heated blanket back on now.
I'm a side sleeper and sleeping on my back seems to help but I just struggle to sleep on my back.
Wondering if anyone else had the same issue and how your resolved it? I was thinking it could be my pillow, I sleep with one and have been trying to sleep with 2 but just can't.
