Getting Proper Sleep During The Trading Week?

no pills suck..i have used them and they will work half the time but then their poison builds up in you and you feel crap throughout the week or months or whatever.Never does solve the main problem nor does it give you consistent sleep.
My dad has sleep issues and resolved it for the most part with cognitive therapy-its not psycho babble but it is like meditation.

I feel friggin great not walking around like a zombie.Its been years!!!

I have had sleep problems for many years. I can say lunesta is much less harsh than ambien. However, both are are very hard on your body. I myself am still on lunesta. With failed sleep studies and no answers, I want to try positive thought training. Try to rewire the brain, I just haven't gotten around to it. I have a hang up with new age I guess. I need to try it out, these pills are not a winning solution.

My doc just gave me Lunesta and I was going to take, he did not warn me of any problems. What do you mean when you say "hard on the body", I have never taken sleeping pills before that is why I ask.

Thanks
 
they wont solve your sleep problem,they will mask it.
If you have sleep problems you should fix the underlying problem-stress,emotion,anxiety,diet,or health issue.
 
for help with sleep problems carry a comb and comb your hair as often as possible and dont worry if someone is watching you.

including public and private; comb your hair for at least 15 times daily.
 
Remove all caffeine from you diet (chocolate, coffee, sodas, tea) and run 2 miles in the evening every other day while lifting weights in the evening on the off days. Your body will be forced to sleep to repair the muscle tissue and the side benefit is a nicer ripped body.

I have sleep propblems during the week were i am only capable of getting 4-6hrs sleep max per night from sun-thursday.On weekends i get 8hrs sleep per night and feel well rested.During the week i am a zombie.

I have to wake up at 6 30 am here on the west coast and it doesnt matter if i fall asleep early or not i just wake up up prematurely after only 5 or 6 hrs sleep.For instance if i go to bed at 10 i will wake up at 4 and i wont be able to fall back aslleep because i start thinking about how the sp futures are doing etc...

Does anybody else suffer from this know and how do you overcome this?Yes i already take sleeping pills and they do not help in preventing my premature wake up!

Try severe anemia, gaurantee'd to get 12+ hours of sleep each and every day no matter what :)

I have been sleeping great with no problems the last 2 weeks.First time in years.The secret?I stopped eating chocolate after 6pm.I used to eat almost everyday a giant hershey bar anywhere from 8-11pm...As soon as i cut that out, i could fall asleep by 11 and sleep straight through for 6 hours and then another 2 hrs later in the morning.Its amazing getting great sleep consistently and not worrying about how little sleep i may get at night.
Unbeknownst to me,chocalate is loaded with cafeine.Anyway,i dont think i will ever eat another hershey bar but i still eat brownies etc before 6pm and sleep well...

Glad to hear you solved your problem. Unfortunate that none of us were able to provide you with the key advice earlier.

I notice, however, looking back through the thread you said the following:
Quote from dsq:
I eat healthy- no junk or fast foods.I also avoid foods that are inconspicuously loaded with sugar like yogurt,orange juice,peanut butter etc...(ironically sugary foods make me drowsy but also make me non functional-this is a whole other subject but i quit sugary foods 2 yrs ago and i immediately required much less sleep and had more energy and didnt feel drowsy all day long ).

Seems like you were providing misleading information.
 
that was my careless omission...i thought i had included somewhere in there my evening 'dessert'.Junk food to me is eating mcdonalds,soda for breakfast or daily...I eat a real wholesome,non processed food diet so i figured i was allowed a chocolate bar.Anyway problem solved.........
