Hello,

Ever since I started university last fall, I have had problems falling asleep; some nights I will simply not fall asleep at all. Obviously this is taking a major tole on my academic performance: if I cannot sleep, how am I supposed to function?

I've been to several doctors, two psychiatrists, two psychologists, and now I'm currently seeing a counsellor--and, there's been absolutely no relief. I've tried taking immovane and ativan but that has ...

Hey everyone:

I have a lot of trouble waking up in the morning. Tried lots of different alarm clocks. Nothing seems to work consistently. Does anyone have any suggestions? Open to just about anything at this point.

Incidentally, I'm thinking about signing up for a service that will place a wake up call to your phone every morning. Wondering if that would do the trick for me, but don't want to pay for it. The ...

I'm 16, male, and have had insomnia for what feels like nearly two years. It is non-stop and happens in different ways. Some nights I go to bed at 10pm and simply cannot fall asleep no matter what, a few weeks ago I was up till 4am in the morning (no sleep whatsoever), slept in accidentally and was almost late to a math exam (which could have resulted in failure). Or, I go ...

I've been sleeping great lately with the addition of klonopin and seroquel. However the past two nights I have not slept well, I tried to take a nap today (which I usually do) and it failed.

My Dad bought me melatonin a couple weeks ago to help me sleep. It worked for maybe two days. So I upped the dose and still barely works. 9Mg and I can't fall asleep as fast as it says I should. I've been under so much stress and depression for the past couple months and have not been able to sleep properly at all. Any other options?

I haven't slept well since January. Help! I am disturbed by what seems to be a spirit that is magically trying to overthrow my sense of well being. It appears as not the owner to the apartment building that I manage (for two years), but a guy from the past who made me say something that I didn't want to because I felt I had no alternative.

I suppose this is kind of like the ...
