Re: Hi I am new here and i want to know about Health Related.
You've heard it before, but setting up a night-time routine is vital.
Also - this will sound odd - but don't force yourself to sleep: the more you want to sleep, the less able you are to sleep. It is a paradox, but is true.
If you can, accept you go without enough sleep, build your life around that. Maybe you just naturally don't need a lot of sleep. You are not other people: while others need a good 8-10 hours of sleep a night, you may only need 5 hours.
Basically:
1. Set up a night-time routine
2. Use lavendar on your pillow
3. Don't force yourself to sleep
4. Take sleeping aid tablets
5. Keep your bedroom calm and at the right temperature
6. Keep a novel by your bed to read when you can't sleep
7. Get up in the morning at the same time: even if you've not been sleeping
I do hope I've helped.
