A lot of insomniacs only sleep for about 2 or 3 hours a day or even less.
Sleeping pills can give you bad side effects such as headaches and drowsiness during the day so you are better off without them.
To sleep better just relax and switch off, if you can.
If you are having trouble switching off at bedtime some light exercise (for example, push ups or sit ups) at bedtime often helps you to relax, unwind and switch off and that often improves your sleep. Strenuous exercise at bedtime is likely to ruin your sleep.
Common OTC sleep aids include Chamomile tea, 5-HTP, Melatonin and Valerian Root.
Of course Insomiacs can sleep. However, some may advice you to see a specialist that may help you with this particular problem if you have severe form of insomia. You can also try and sleep for atleast 3 hours everyday or else your body may shut down eventually.
Yes, but only for a few hours and if you don't sleep, your body will start to shut down and can be fatal. Try taking Zzzquil or Melatonin to help promote sleep.
