I have counted sheep, taken Melatonin, read, drank warm milk (ew) and I can't sleep. I have exercised until I am blue in the face and it doesn't make me tired. I seem to go through these periods, where no matter what I do, I just.can't.get.to.sleep. If I am a bit cranky, I hope you will understand. Any ideas?I will NOT see my doctor about this yet, because I will NOT get addicted to sleeping pills. (it's in my genes.) What to do, what to do.

Hey Randy,
I have those stretches when I'll wake up in the middle of the night and my brain starts going 240...next thing I know it's 2 hours later and I'm still awake. I've done breathing exercises, tossed and turned trying to find that comfortable position and still can't find that zone. The only thing I can suggest (that sometimes works) is focus on something you love. I try to recreate a softball game I've played in or some other event that was postive. Replay a basketball game in your head. If you focus on the details of the game your mind/body may relax enough to get some sleep. Good luck...
