text: My sleep trouble is dropping off in the evening on the sofa, waking at gone midnight and then not being able to get to sleep when I get to bed!
  I find in very hard to fall asleep in seems to be my thinking place rather than sleeping place. Ive tried reading but this makes it worst i then think about my book
  I've been an insomniac all my life, and I find that the usual advice to get up and read or write wakes me up even more. I swear by a hot bath, a mug of milk and some paracetemol
  I can't sleep because my babies are crying at night.I'm always tired because of that. Fortunately, they will grow fast :)
  I always have trouble sleeping but if I've been lying in bed for ages trying to sleep I play the iPhone app "Fill It!", the repetition of the game makes me sleepy :)
  I suggest to anyone who can't sleep to get out of bed. You need to train your brain that bed is for sleeping not for lying awake in.
  hot chocolate and reading a book until my eyes cant stay open. Neither are particularly successful though as I dont get nearly enough sleep!
  Since using a better quality mattress I've found I sleep more soundly. Cheap mattresses where you can feel lumps, bumps and springs are just distracting when trying to sleep. To unwind after a long day and prepare me for sleep I switch the TV off, computer off and everything else distracting for at least half an hour before bedtime and just potter about the house doing little chores that I know would play on my mind if I went to bed without doing them.
  Snuggle down in clean sheets and read a book that you don't find that interesting - I often fall asleep within minutes with the book in my hands! Don't read a book that you want to keep turning the pages to find out what happens, save those books for daytime reading.
  dont sleep a lot but watching tv makes me sleep ,so you can guess ,tv is open all the time in my room
  listen to music whilst brushing my teeth. Put the electric blanket on. text hubby from bed (he's overseas!) and read a bit.
  I usually sleep really well, but if i'm feeling wide awake at night i read and usually wake up with the book in my face!
  I've just discovered jersey bedding. It's so warm and cosy that I'm off to sleep in no time even on the coldest night.
  I'm really really lucky I have no trouble sleeping. I think it's due to the fact that I've had six children and learned to sleep immediately if I had a spare 15 minutes. I was sleep deprived for many years, so every minute counted! But I do realise that I'm very lucky, my husband lays awake for hours worrying about things at work over which he has no control.
  I watch TV - I know its one of the worst things to do but it does send me off quite quickly - Jen Jackson
  Like to watch tv in bed or listen to music helps me to relax ready for sleep. I'm pretty lucky and can get to sleep easy however I can wake up and still feel tired. Which is annoying.
  At the moment it's the insomnia that's winning but I think that's more to do with circumstances than anything else.
