        From one grandma to another. It’s time for you to do CBT-I, which is cognitive behavior therapy specifically for insomnia. You can read about it on this website. Martin Reed, the creator of this website is an expert on this. There’s also a free course here. Medication is not a long-term solution, but this will be and has been researched and proven to work.

        How long have you had your insomnia? I’ve had mine since October. I’m doing the therapy and am sleeping much better now. Last night slept 6.5 hours. I too was lying awake for hours before doing this therapy.

          Welcome to the forum, Grandma1! Let me reassure you that you do not need to take medication to fall asleep. Can you tell us a bit more about your current sleep pattern? When do you go to bed at night, when do you get out of bed to start your day in the morning, and how many hours of sleep do you get on a typical night?
