Works for me.<br />Email me if you'd like the brands I use.[jmwille55 @ yahoo.com] If you've never used magnesium, then start at the 250mg level combined with calcium at 500mg. Taking magnesium alone works as well.<br />Good luck and don't let the details overshadow Jean Willetthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03589050234856454216noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2699781471932147821.post-37407093937522206862011-07-18T10:17:20.624-03:002011-07-18T10:17:20.624-03:00Such wonderful suggestions.

One ...Such wonderful suggestions. Thanks everyone.<br />One lady over at my FB site suggested I count my blessings. Great idea!<br />Another gal suggested removing all caffeine and chocolate from my diet.

Maybe what's keeping you from sleeping is the fear you'll forget something. How about making lists of everything that has to get accomplished. Write the name of who's responsible.

Could even be hubby sleeping so soundly besideMarshahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05670118259013217366noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2699781471932147821.post-56456112893620032262011-07-18T09:42:06.234-03:002011-07-18T09:42:06.234-03:00I understand how you feel as I have the same thing...I understand how you feel as I have the same thing at times. My grand-daughter's husband once had medication and gave me one. It is called Lunesta. It made me sleep for 8 hours and I woke up without a "hangover". It has a rather strange taste, but it's worth it. I only took it once, but it really worked. It is by prescription so you could ask you doctor about it.

On the other hand, the stories of the things gone wrong are a delight. So let go of the stress of getting it all right and think of yourself as prepping for a story to be told potentially for generations! Once you let go of having to get it all right, maybe you can relax.DearHelenHartmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01191525904664350294noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2699781471932147821.post-85545288383251492422011-07-18T08:22:54.268-03:002011-07-18T08:22:54.268-03:00I know nothing about the pressures of being MOB, b...I know nothing about the pressures of being MOB, but when I have trouble sleeping, I get up and write and don't feel guilty about the odd hours.

I used to do this a long time ago when stuff was bothering me so much that I couldn't sleep. BUT, I haven't had to do this in years! For some reason, I haven't had trouble sleeping in a long time! Your blog post just brought some long-dormant memories to mind! :-)Cecelia Dowdyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07173806883218875753noreply@blogger.com
