<p>Thanks for all the responses. I do exercise and have tried different times of day with no difference. Advil does not make me sleep – I took it for chronic tendonitis for a while and it didn’t make me sleep. I cannot take antihistamines due to a number of bad experiences with them and an allergic reaction to the antihistamine element in an epidural. Reading through this thread, I’m with the peri-menopause group – someone who always had sleep issues that are now being exacerbated at this point in time. Since I also have some neck problems and sometimes wake up with neck pain and headaches, today I splurged on a tempurpedic neck pillow. My husband has one and urged me to get one. I lay down on it in the store and felt like I could have nodded off. So I’m hoping a change in pillow will help. I might try the Sleepytime, but if Melatonin isn’t helping, I doubt the tea will. I’m going to see how the pillow goes first. I want to make one change at a time so I can see what makes a difference.</p>
