Welcome to Insomnia Land.
Did your sleeplessness start when you became an entrepreneur? If so, it's likely your insomnia is down to excessive mental chatter. Fortunately, this is one of the easiest causes of insomnia to address. If you take steps to calm your mind before going to bed, your sleep should begin to immediately improve.
Keep in touch and I look forward to reading more of your posts and getting to know you better.

Did you get your melatonin levels checked? I'd be interested to know what your levels were.

Sorry to hear that, Tommy. Do you think the insomnia is caused by the migraines, or did the sleep problems happen before they returned?
I don't know if you've signed up for the sleep training course I now offer – you may find it helpful:

Welcome to Insomnia Land, and thanks for introducing yourself.
Your insomnia could very well be altitude related – however, some people find that a change of surroundings help them sleep – often because they put so much pressure on themselves to sleep when at home, they associate their bedroom with a place of stress and frustration rather than sleep.
When away from home, this association disappeared, making sleep far easier.
How long were you sleeping well for, and what were the circumstances behind your lower-altitude period? Were you on a vacation?

Fantastic! Thank you so much – I am sure this will be a valuable resource.
Hopefully, in addition to asking questions, other members can chime in with any experience they've had with biofeedback/neurofeedback, too.

I went through a short term period of insomnia but was able to overcome it. That being said, I still suffer from the odd bout of sleeplessness, but not enough for me to refer to myself as an insomniac.
I absolutely believe it's possible to improve the quality of your sleep regardless of how long you've been suffering from sleep deprivation. Keep at it and don't give up.

Welcome aboard, Ted!
A common frustration of insomnia is watching your spouse sleep soundly on command whilst us insomniacs lie awake and wonder how on earth they do it. Jealousy and anger is perfectly normal!
You seem to have a positive outlook, which will no doubt help you improve the quality of your sleep – indeed, many other members find insomnia has unleashed their creative sides so perhaps sleep deprivation isn't all bad after all!
I cover meditation and sound therapy in the sleep training – so keep following those emails.
Take care of yourself and I look forward to reading more of your posts 🙂

Welcome to Insomnia Land, Debra.
You know, a lot of members here who have been to sleep clinics didn't find them overly helpful – so you definitely are not alone in that regard. As Groggy suggests, it would seem that sleep clinics are only really beneficial when you suffer from physical sleep issues such as sleep apnea.
Don't give up though – you'll get plenty of support and advice here in the forums.
Keep in touch and take care!

Welcome to Insomnia Land and thanks for introducing yourself.
I'd love to know more about the biofeedback/neurofeedback – perhaps you could start a new discussion topic describing your experience with this type of treatment? I am sure a lot of our members would find it very useful and interesting.
I look forward to reading more of your posts and getting to know you better.

You know you need more sleep when you think 3:01 is a cable channel and not the current time.

Thanks for sharing, Groggy – I am sure many others reading this seek comfort in your posts. One of the biggest frustrations of insomnia is the feeling of isolation. At Insomnia Land, you're among a lot of support and understanding.
Normally, it's a good idea to try avoiding daytime naps – the more 'sleep pressure' you can build, the more likely you are to regain a 'normal' sleep routine.
That being said, it's all about what works for you and what makes you feel good.
No lectures here – just understanding.

Welcome to Insomnia Land – if you got this far, then your application was approved! I apologize that you didn't get a confirmation email. Maybe it was late and it slipped my mind, or perhaps it went to your junk folder by mistake.
The most important thing is you made it – so thank you for joining us and introducing yourself.
Oh, and Happy New year!

Most sleeping drugs here don't come particularly well recommended. It tends to be a scenario of the lesser of two evils – either you live with the effects of sleep deprivation or pop the pills and get some semblance of sleep in return for a drug hangover and grogginess the next day.
If you take a search through this section of the forum, you'll see quite a few medications mentioned but I'll post this discussion in the next insomniac bulletin and hopefully some more members will chime in with their experience of specific medications.
It'll certainly be helpful to draw the various discussions into one central 'resource'.
