    Would love to offer advice if you’d like?

    Why do you feel you can’t sleep? Stuff on your mind/pain?? 

    There’s always an alternative that won’t make you feel groggy the next day or cause your body damage.  We pop

    Pills far too easily looking for a quick fix. Pills can work short term but I have benefitted much more from other avenues than pills.

    Easy to get addicted to these pills but I promise they will mess your insides up in the long term.

    There are reasons behind you not sleeping and pills aren’t the answer.

      No reason I can think of. Did have a crazy panic attack in January but feel fine now except I cannot sleep. I have plenty that I need to do and want to do just too tired during the day

    Have you tried meditating before bed? 

    I have had problems sleeping for a while. Came off the pills a while ago and been a struggle but meditation / mindfullness has helped a lot. Do it just before sleeping and puts me in a relaxed mood before bedtime. Certainly helped me a lot with sleeping.

    Worth a try?
