Do any of you have trouble with insomnia? I'm really having a problem with it on a regular basis. From talking with people my age (45) a lot of people seem to have the same problem. Any suggestions on how to overcome insomnia without drugs? :frustrated:

Hey Beth,
Looks like you're getting TONS of advice.
One thing that came to mind. Have you been getting as much exercise as in the past? I remember that you've not been able to swim nearly as much as you were last year or so b/c of your shoulder injuries and such. I saw that when I missed just one or two swim practices, I literally could not sleep that night - just tossed and turned for hours. Has your physical activity been up to what you've been used to?
Ugh. After reading some of these posts - my take home message for myself is Just Say No. 'Course, who am I to talk. Got my surgery coming up and they will be pumping me full of drugs. Ick.
