I can't sleep and I don't have money to get sleeping pills. What at home remedies work?

Tuesday, October 20th, 2009 by

I don’t have extra money. So, I was wondering if there were at home remedies that work. I have tried warm mike with honey and things like that. If you have any ides please help. I really need sleep. I often go days with out it.

A box of generic benedryl is 2 bucks for 24 of them. Thats what sleeping pills are….anti-histamines. And they work pretty well.

Good Luck

    Try to drink some warm milk….. I know it sounds really gross… It works though.. If you cannot handle the milk warm then try some hot chocolate or a warm drink that does not have any caffeine in it….. Hope this helps… Good Luck!!!!

    Exercise early in the morning, eat healthy meals, get in bed at the same time everynight to force your circadian rythm to be use to "bedtime".
    A good book and low light help me also.

    If that doesn’t work it maybe a medical issue. Or possibly a spirtitual one. I once heard an older man speak on not being able to sleep, then believing it was God saying he wasn’t spending enough time in the Bible.

    L-tryptophan. This is whats in turkey that makes you sleepy. It is an amino acid that your body uses to make serotonin. Thats what helps you sleep.

    First you need to write down everything that is bothering you, go lay down in a DARK bedroom and take 10 deep breaths to relax. It works!

    falling asleep is a tricky topic and it can be different for everyone. Most people try the warm beverages like you said. Tea often is a wonderful helper. There is a tea called "sleepy time tea," that obviously is meant to help you fall asleep. There are plenty of other trick that people recommend too. Here is a website that has some helpful hints:
    http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/sleep/HQ01387

    like i said falling asleep is different for everyone and for some its harder than others. I personally find that if i have a clear mind, warm bed, comfortable pillow, and no distractions (TV, music, outside noise) then i am successful to fall asleep.
    A great tip that I have used for years is peaceful meditation, and a shower. The shower helps me calm down physically and the meditation helps me calm down mentally.
    I hope some of this helped and you will soon be getting regular sleep. Good luck :)

    Cold milk works well too. I drink it cold 1 hr before the time I actually want to fall asleep. Take hot baths, play slow, mellow music, read the bible ( something boring) to help you relax to fall asleep.
    Avoid soda’s, caffeine and sugars!

    Here are some sleeping tips:
    Get your body into a routine so it knows it’s time to sleep

    Light therapy- Have the lights dimmed 1 hour before you go to bed and when you wake up open the curtains and turn on the light

    Do not watch T.V or go on your computer for 1 hour before you go to sleep as these stimulate you too much

    Do not have any caffeine after 4pm (that includes soft drinks)

    Try listening to talking books or relaxing music to get to sleep
    Have a warm glass of milk before bed

    Having a hot shower is really good for getting you relaxed.

    Do as much physical activity as you can during the day so you can get exhausted

    Clenching your muscles as you breath in (to the count of 3) and relaxing them as you breath out lets a chemical out of your muscles and can assist you to sleep. It’s best done lying flat on your bed.

    Try and calm down, a lot of insomnia comes from anxiety, if you are worried about something, write it down so you can think about it the next day.

    I hope it all works out for you

    Make sure your bedroom is tidy and pleasant to be in.
    Don’t have a tv or radio in your room.
    Don’t look at tv for at least half an hour before you go to bed.
    Don’t drink tea or coffee for at least 4 hours before you go to bed and give it up altogether if you can.
    You should keep your bedroom for sleeping only, if possible. In this way, you begin to associate this particular room with sleep.

    From the Federal Reserve Education site;

    " Velocity – The rate at which money balances turn over in a period for expenditures on goods and services (often measured as the ratio of GNP-gross national product-to the money stock). A larger velocity means that a given quantity of money is associated with a greater dollar volume of transactions. "

    The Supreme Court has ruled that Guantánamo isn't a part of the USA — that it's still a part of Cuba, but that the US has control of it (FYI, the Cuban government considers the U.S. presence in Guantánamo to be illegal). And by that US Supreme Court ruling, officially, the people being held prisoner without charge in Guantánamo are not being held in the USA and, therefore, USA laws don't apply. Also, the prisoners there have been ruled "enemy combatants" a term that originated in WWII, That means they don't have the same rights as POWs.

    So, in short, there are no "remedies."

    As the USA keeps saying that the Geneva Conventions don't apply to its dealings with "enemy combatants" and even prisoners in Iraq, it's only a matter of time before a foreign government does the same with USA troops and citizens and prisoners. And because of Guantánamo and the horrific, insulting photos and activities at Abu Ghraib, it will be very difficult for the USA to assume any moral high ground or claim any rights for its citizens in such an event.
