i have used a natural substance called melatonin. it naturally occurs in the body to tell your brain that it is time to go to sleep. it is sold in health food stores, and probably in wal mart too. it is non-addictive and it actually works.

Yup that would be me lol.Usually cause even though i want to sleep my brain does not "shut off" I a;ways joke and say i make my best plans in my sleep.There is a herb on the market by Jamisone called realax and sleep.Says you can take up to 4 but i find 1 does me just find.It basically calms the mind allowing you to fully relax when you sleep so you actually get a good sleep.I bet thats why you feel tired even though you say you get lots of sleep.Could be a vitamin deficiency as well but more likley to be what i said.Its a all natural product not a drug or sleeping pill so why not try it and see if it works.I dont even take them every night .The matress companies want you to believe its your matress dont bye into their pitches .I dont know about you but when i am tired i can sleep almost any where lol.

I took Lunesta and found that it didn't work at all for me.  I had a metal taste in my mouth and it simply didn't allow me to sleep.  Ambien is addicitve and causes amnesia.  There is a new drug out called Rozerem.  It is non-addictive and it works to increase your bodies own melatonin in your brain.  You can stop it at any time.  I find it helpful in getting back to sleep once I have woken up.  Also, if you can get some soft meditation or ocean sounds on an ipod or any other headphone system that may remove "mind chatter" if the casue of your sleelessness if anxiety.  good luck.  I have had sleep problems for over a decade.  Get a handle on it quickly or it will get away from you and make you sick in other ways from pure exhaustion.\nBest wishes.

Talk to your doctor.  Herbal medications can be dangerous, too, so be careful.  My wife takes Valerian to sleep, but she was told not to use it too often.  Check with the doc.

there is nothing on the internet by this name, it is not a common name in the treatment of insomnia either, you could try melatonin over the counter, tylenol pm or talk to your doctor about things like lunesta, sonata, ambien cr. non pharmacological, fixed sleep times, minimal caffeine, no tv or computer before sleep, exercise in evenings are helpful, good luck

Narcolepsy is a disorder marked by excessive daytime sleepiness, uncontrollable sleep attacks, and cataplexy (a sudden loss of muscle tone, usually lasting up to half an hour).\nThere is no cure for narcolepsy. It is not progressive, and it is not fatal, but it is chronic. The symptoms can be managed with medication or lifestyle adjustment. Amphetamine-like stimulant drugs are often prescribed to control drowsiness and sleep attacks. Patients who do not like taking high doses of stimulants may choose to take smaller doses and “manage” their lifestyles, such as by napping every couple of hours, to relieve daytime sleepiness. Antidepressants are often effective in treating symptoms of abnormal REM sleep. With the recent discovery of the gene that causes narcolepsy, researchers are hopeful that therapies can be designed to relieve the symptoms of the disorder.

Hmm. You may need to see a doctor specializing in sleep disorders. Is your home very warm and poorly ventilated? That may also be contributing to your problem. You may need to get more exercise and improve your diet, because many of the foods we eat in modern society are full of preservatives, sugar and salt and too much of these things can be very draining on our energy and vitality. Try eating more fresh fruits, whole grains, vegetables and fish and drinking more water. Severly cut back on your intake of red meat, sweets, softdrinks, and processed carbohydrates like white bread, pasta, white rice, crackers,chips, ect.
