Anti-anxiety meds: Have you tried any sleeping or anti anxiety medications? You may want to ask your doctor if you are a candidate for these medications. There are some natural agents which may help sleeping ...Particularly valerian root and melatonin. Tart cherry juice is supposed to have high levels of melatonin.
