If you cant sleep,your not tired. Get up and go to work until you are tired enough to sleep. Keep with your body's schedule,not a fake one by the clock. I had trouble sleeping when I tried to stick to a 24 hour clock schedule which was not in sync with my body and mind. My normal schedule is to be up for about 20 hours and sleep for 8.never have trouble sleeping now.

Forget that fear of gravity-get a little savagery in your life.

If legal where You live, get some weed gummies. I use them when it is hot here in the summer. I don't eat enough that it would get me high (not My thing), but just enough that it makes me sleepy. Give it a try if legal, it works surprisingly well.
Spruce Good idea.

Fought it for years my doctor prescribed trazadone it works for me and I have noticed no side effects. He wouldn't give me ambien said it was addictive. I have used the trazadone for almost 20 yrs now.

Ambien CR helps me sleep. I don't have any problems with it now that I'm taking 6.25 mg. (one tablet), but when I was taking a larger dose (12.5 mg.) I could stay up for hours writing and have no memory of that time period the next day. My prose read like it had been written by a stranger.
I will say that Ambien CR is the one thing I've found for chronic insomnia that actually works. Every night, for regular sleep--which is important to our health.

Eat a good potion of Carbs about 11:00 p.m. . . . you should be sound asleep within 1/2 hr. . . . nothin' tried, nothin' gained :-)

Thanks for the advice everyone. My issue is def. in my head. When I was younger and started becoming a little successful I stressed about things to the point I got very bad stomach ulcers. So I took meds. for a while and learned not to stress that way and got off the meds.. Got more successful and each days pay meant less which helped. Now there is just a ton more at stake and I can fall asleep but start dreaming about what I need to do tomorrow and wake up. I know boo woo sounds stupid.
Have a wife and kids so the guitar and drums lol are out of the question. Reading the Bible some nights helps but have trouble keeping my mind on the Good Book or any book while my mind is racing.
Alcohol has been my crutch for years but weening off that.
I own a shop and do some real estate investing on the side. So the hours are not wasted instead I work on real estate options.
I will work through it. Just a life long worry wart!
Sleep tight T-man crew! You are awesome people (well most of you lol)! For the record an electric guitar unplugged is not very loud. lol Hope you find the solution.
