What pills help you sleep longer

Unisom tablets aka Unisom "Sleep Tabs"

I have the Target brand, seems to work pretty well. Now if I could just get the !@)*&amp*&!# cat and other peeps in the house to stop waking me up before I'm ready! ear plugs are right next to them.

The Alcohol Pill

And the Sex Pill

Joking aside, cut caffiene from your diet totally. DOn;t exercise late, don;t eat late, no tv in bed.

this lol
no really ...sex works...alcohol not so much at least not for long in fact they have proven that it makes it worse even though I sleep pretty well on my party nights lol the last three ideas are great ones!!! the coffee idea is also a great one anything with caffiene ...chocolate ...tea etc....I am still trying to change my habits where this is concerned!! love love love my coffee and chocolate lol

I am on an anti-anxiety med...not because i have anxiety..but because i have a racing mind...and it never slows down..it does help with my sleep

this^ I call it Ativan.....works like a charm!

doTERRA essential oils! 100% natural and you can use them topically, ingest OR diffuse into the air. For sleeping, I've used single oils: Lavender and Marjoram, and oil blends: Serenity and AromaTouch.

Bob Marley mellow mood tea is the BEST!!!

eat well
exercise
have a stable sleep schedule
make sure the room is dark and quiet (except for white noise like a fan if you prefer)
no interruptions (lock your cats/dogs out)
get a nice bed (for me firm is best, but it's different for everyone)

that will fix 99% of sleep problems. if not, maybe see a doctor

I took Ambien for a little while, but it made me feel really loopy. It actually freaked me out quite a bit...I was seeing double of things and floor looked like it was tilting downhill. I wouldn't recommend it. I know that sometimes amitryptyline is prescribed for sleep, and I was on that for awhile (as an antidepressent, not a sleep aid)...it did make me sleep well, but didn't really help my depression. Now I'm on clomipramine and it makes me sleep really well plus it treats the other stuff it's supposed to treat too. Sorry, but I don't have any suggestions for OTC helpers

I actually get good results with Valerian Root. Sometimes I'll open the capsules and steep the powder with a relaxing tea. Advil PM worked well for me too. I tried several different dosage levels with Melatonin and I had stomach cramps and nightmares. Ambien had me all trippy so I had to stop that. Celestial Seasons Sleepytime Tea "Extra" also has Valerian Root. Hope you find something that works!

I have a prescription for Flexeril (cyclobenzaprine.) It's a muscle relaxer. I have sleep trouble, restless leg syndrome and fibro...but they get me a good solid 8 hours of sleep everynight and helps with my knotted muscles.

Women complain all the time that men fall asleep after sex. Better than a pill.

Sex.. what's that! I'm married!

Anyway as I said I've no issues falling asleep, it's getting a proper night sleep where the problem lies.

That's what Pornhub.com is for.

I take melatonin, 3 mg tablet cut in half when I've had 2-3 nights of restless sleep.

LMFAO!! :drinker:

A natural supplement that I use is ZMA, which is zinc, magneseum aspartate. Try it before you resort to drugs. You can get it at GNC. It will make you have crazy dreams for the forst two or three nights until your brain adjusts to the deeper mode of sleep that you get with it. Take it 20 min before bedtime and see if it works for you.

Do you drink coffee or soda during the day? I've become very caffeine sensitive the older I get so I can't drink anything containing it past noon or I'll have a restless night. This runs in my family - my mother is so sensitive, she can't even eat coffee ice cream in the evening!

Do you drink alcohol at night? Many folks don't realize that although it may help you fall asleep because you're relaxed, it will mess with your sleep rhythms so you won't sleep well.

If you take anything like Advil or Tylenol before bed, once that wears off (4-6 hours), you may no longer feel sleepy.

I take the WalMart brand of Tylenol PM and break them in half - funny you mentioned little blue pill because that's what they are! I've never felt groggy the next morning on half a dose. A full dose will leave me with that "hangover" type feeling though.

My Dad swears by a meditative exercise. He'll lay in bed and clear his mind by picturing a chalk board being erased over and over. Then he goes through a body relaxation technique - start with your toes and relax each part as you move up.

For me, a few things work... If there's something on my mind that I can't get past (OMG - I forgot to send that email to the client!), I get up and send myself an email. That way I can get the thought out of my head and relax. Mindless actions help too, like playing some solitaire on my phone or going through one of those entertainment FB pages like My Inner Child is a Drunken *kitten*. If I'm really desparate, I'll turn the light on and read - sometimes that works but sometimes the light is enough to keep me awake.

Good luck!
