Have you tried everything under the sun to sleep more normally?

Yuppers. to even include prescrip sleep aids. Still was up and awake in 4 hours. Sure as heck surprised the doc. LOL!

Melatonin is supposed to be helpful for normal sleep. It's good for you in general and nonaddictive.

You can get it in any vitamin store. You might consider trying it, if you haven't already, or at least read up on it.

Very interesting. I didn't realize that books have already been written about the benefits of sleep for your health.
