Hello, i am having some pretty significant trouble getting and staying asleep. can you all prescribe me something to help short term?

Insomnia : Usually, this is associated with an emotional stressor. If that is the case dealing with the underlying issue is best. There are minerals that help people sleep like magnesium lactate. In order to have something prescribed you need to see a doctor in person
