I need your help, Balkers. My one superpower, an ability to sleep at any hour, has deserted me. I have tried hot milk and herbal tea. I have tried soothing music, and dead silence. I go to bed nice and early in a dark room. I have tried reading a comforting book before bed, and I have tried turning the light out immediately upon retiring. I have my coffee in the morning and then I avoid caffeine for the rest of the day. I have given up my dinner-hour beer or glass of wine on the theory that alcohol disrupts my sleep patterns. I avoid TV and other forms of screen time before bed. But nothing works. I just can't turn off my brain, and I'm worrying. I'm relying on OTC sleeping pills just to get a couple of hours of unconsciousness, and I know they are not a solution. Have you tips and tricks? Can you recommend something? Your mrsfinch is getting squirrelly for lack of quality sleep. It was the one thing I was really good at, and I have been robbed of the ability.
Let me know in the comments. I'll be here, staring wide-eyed into the darkness.
