Hello Geegeenumber1 I read what you wrote in your email about insomnia. I have been reading about it in the library books and I watched a documentary about it last year. My words of advice are;
1. Don't go to bed after you had an evening meal.
2. Be punctual with your sleep schedule on what time you go to bed and what time you wake up
3. Have a mug of warm milk
4. Try to drink herbal teas but not too much
5. Avoid caffine-related drinks as they keep you awake

I have a friend who's been dealing with insomnia but don't worry I'm sure you'll be fine.

Hi there

Thank so much. My insomnia basically solved itself when I quit dieting! I was drinking lots of coffee and water to try and fill up and not eating any carbs which also causes insomnia. I tried every trick in the book but touch wood it's gone.

My lack of sleep is due to having Crohns, Short Bowel and Ileostomy I’m up and down going to the toilet I basically live in the toilet 20 times during day and 4-5 times during the night I guess it’s pointless for me to sleep if I do nod off I have an inner alarm that wakes me up to empty bag.

hello fellow insomniac here
i find dim lights, relaxing music or insight timer or calm stories app good to wind down

and being comfy, my weighted blanket and painkillers are essential for a good nights sleep

when i eventually fall asleep usually 2-3am
but ended up napping 5-9pm today so who knows when i will get to sleep today 😑 anyway good luck and hunger can affect it don’t try to sleep if hungry you might have to wake up for a snack 😆
