I dont know how many other people have insomnia...but I have had it for /months/. Its like I fall asleep at like 2 in the morning, wake up at 4, fall back asleep, and wake up like every 2 or 3 hours. Does anyone know any good remedies for a solid night's sleep?

ps, I know /why/ this is happening -hormone issues-, but I just need to know what will help for now >.< Ive tried tea, meditating, working out before bed, etc..but none work >>

Sleeping pills are good (In moderation)  I prefer Simply Sleep because it seems to be a bit weaker than some other kinds.  It all depends on how sensitive you are to the ingredients, though.  I've tried a few kinds actually, including my father's preion Ambiem DX  Not doing that again.  Unisom is another I won't use- I fall asleep soundly, but then I sleep for about twelve hours.

If you do decide to try pills, you have to avoid becoming dependant on them.  I use them one or two nights to get my sleeping pattern on track, and then put them away for a while.

If you don't want to drug yourself to sleep, a glass of milk could help (Considering you like it)

I have insomnia too. I've been trying to find a cure. Sleeping pills dont work on me. No joke. Even the strongest (NONPREION) kinds dont knock me out. I don't know why...>n>

Cant drink milk....

I usually listen to music....

I have a problem like this, but I don't use sleeping pills. Now, I might be wrong, I'm barely 12, but I never use sleeping pills for one solid reason. A fire starts in your house, and your loaded up on sleeping pills, and your alarms aren't even waking you up. Unless your parents are going to run and carry you all the way out the house, it's pretty risky. I've only taken them once. But, this also can be a horrible point because fires don't happen often in your house, yada yada yada. xD I also think sleeping pills can give your body other problems.

I like tea C:

Sleepy time tea USED to knock me out, but my body grew adjusted to it. :C Dumb hormones.

Sometimes, when I have trouble sleeping, I take my mp3 and just lay down for a while with the plugs in my ears, listening to the radio [yes the radio is on my mp3].  After a while of that, I usually want to fall asleep just with the buds in my ears, but I know that's not good for me.  So I just take it out and fall asleep shortly after.

I listen to that music perhaps... 30-60 minutes until I get tired.  I have recently had a tuogh time falling asleep too. :c
