    Hello,

    I worked 3rd shift for 11 years and I had trouble sleeping. That has been over 10 years ago, I still feel the effect of trying to sleep 8 hours. I usually take a PM pill to help me sleep through the night.

    Ever since junior high school. My husband, who falls asleep as soon as his eyes close, says to clear your mind of all thoughts. How in the heck do you do that? Sorry, no solutions here.

    I work as a chef with varying lengths of shifts..

    Tonight though, I normally work 9 or 10 hours, but because of having a bad reaction to a very large blood-draw, I had to leave work to come home... Im over-tired to the point I cant sleep just yet... , I will take a nice long HOT shower, put on my comfy pj's, relax on the couch with my favorite light blanket, no sounds to be heard except my own breathing... and I will either read a book or a magazine to relax.

    I find 'quiet' actually helps to clear my mind to get into sleeping-mode... quiet just doesnt happen at work for sure! LOL!

    well it is only 915 here. But, I took a nap today since I was up at 430, so I will probably be joining the club at some point =)

    ME TOO. I notice men usually fall asleep so much easier! I wish I knew their secret.
