Home remedies for good night's sleep?

Any home remedies for getting a good night's sleep?

OTC pills (like Tylenol PM) don't seem to work


TIA

Have you tried Melatonin? You can find it with supplements, and it works fabulously!

Take the Unisom with Doxylamine Succinate and not SleepGels or SleepMelts.

I'd say to try to Melatonin also, but start w/the lowest dosage you can find (I take 3 mg now). Melatonin can make you have some crazy dreams and lowering the dosage helped lessen the dreams.

I found 3 mg Melatonin (time-released) on Amazon.

I ordered it...I hope it works

Thanks everyone

Do you have any sort of noise machine in your room?

I wear a sleep mask and have a box-fan going in our room year round (pointed away from us in the winter obviously).





and remember a good ol BIG O puts a lot of people to sleep!

Unisom did not work...

It made my mouth very dry...

Did a google search and found out that dry mouth is a side effect....
