How frustrating is it to wake during the night?

If you are fortunate enough to fall asleep, how frustrating is it to wake during the night? Some people manage to roll over and drift back off, but we know that's much easier said than done.

Do you have any tips for getting back to sleep after waking during the night? Anything that has worked for you? Anything you would advise others to never try?

  1. Does anyone use a patch? Zleep or other. Does it help???

    1. That is a great question, , however it will soon get buried in these comments and bring in few responses. You might want to repost in the Forums section. Here is a link: https://insomnia.sleep-disorders.net/forums. I hope you get lots of input. I am interested in hearing about the experiences of others myself since my greatest issue with melatonin is that it doesn't keep me alseep. Best wishes. - Lori (Team Member)

  2. Have none be cause nothing worked

    1. I know you are struggling with treatment. Have you considered finding a new doctor, maybe a new sleep specialist or neurologist? Thinking of you. - Lori (Team Member)

  3. Drink water

    1. Do I understand correctly, that you often wake up for water in the night?

  4. Because each person's body chemistry is different, we each may react differently, if at all. to CBD gummies. I'm an 83 year-old female; try to eat mostly organic foods; am reasonably active. Medical marijuana has been the answer for me.

    1. I am glad you found something that helps, . Does it help you remain asleep or do you wake up after a few hours? Best wishes. - Lori (Team Member)

    2. I agree with what you are saying about how we all react differently from each other to different things. I also use CBD gummies, THC does not respond well to me, and I get terrible vertigo. I do find a positive impact from the CBD though. How long have you been using it? I am delighted that it works for you.
