Hello All, I am counsellor with over 12 years experience specializing in parenting, families, youth and mental health. I answer questions in a blunt and straightforward way so if you are looking for coddling or really touchy feely type advice thats not me I provide real solutions for your problems and concrete suggestions in other words I tell you the plain truth I don't sugarcoat.
I am really worried these days with the easy access to the internet and all the false information that is out there and the fact that people believe it!! So please ask first. I don't claim to have all the answers but I can claim that NOTHING will shock me you can try though :)
I look forward to hearing you thoughts and questions.

okay, seriously.. i must be an insomniac. it's 5:27 am and i cant sleep, i cleaned my whole room, bathroom and kicthen to give me something to do, and im hyper as ever still, for the past 2 months i have not been able to sleep, and when i do sleep i sleep to much, what is rong with me? am i going insane???
Hey there, I am an adult and have had the same issue for over 15 years. I have visited sleep clinics and tried every trick out there. Basically I find I cycle I sleep well for 3-4 months then I will be hit with insomnia for a month or so where I can't fall asleep and if I fall asleep I can sleep for 14 hours at a shot. There are many tricks you can try the ones previously suggested are great, also what works well is having a bath right before bed and using a sleep mask to block out all light. Also if I have something where I need to be well rested I sometimes take a benedryl I AM NOT RECOMENDING THIS!!! I am just saying that for me it helps sometimes. (Benedryl is the same drug that is in over the counter sleep medications)
Hope this helps
(Rating: 5) I have an apointment with a doctor that my therapist set up for me, thanx for the help. they say i have a seriouse case of insomnia, and i need to get tested for a certain medicine, thanx.
mucho luv
