Why its hard for me to sleep every night?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Sleep disorder: Sometimes, the left brain is still active preventing the right brain from coming in to allow rest to happen. You can try music (classical, soft), Melatonin 3 mg po before bed to quiet the brain and allow sleep to happen.

Hello, My name is Jesse. I was wondering if you had any ideas on how to get better sleep at night? I try to go to bed at the same time every night and have the same nightly routine. I tend to wake up 5-6 times regularly throughout the night. Sometimes it is very hard to shut the brain off. Any ideas or tips and how to help with this? Thanks in advance. Sleep?
