Natural sleep aids for serious insomnia that really work

Non-natural over-the-counter and prescription sleep aids are, quite frankly, nasty. One of the worst medications I’ve ever used in my life was Ambien (Zolpidem) which, while it does knock you out, it seriously messes with your personality and moods the next day, to an off-the-scale extent that more than nullifies the sleep benefit. It goes into negative territory. Insomnia is better than it.  Not only that, but use of drugs in the benzodiazepam family has been found to correlate to a very high degree to the onset of alzheimers disease, especially long-term use.

For serious insomnia, which is something I had for a long time, I highly recommend the following natural sleep aids. They do not have the nasty side effects of the babylon sleep medications and they really work.

solgar liquid melatonin
Solgar Liquid Melatonin This works above all else. In a 1 ml dropper amount you get 10 mg of melatonin, which is a high amount. But if you have serious insomnia that you are having a hard time breaking, then take this at bedtime. Even if you don’t fall asleep, keep taking it at bedtime. It will get your brain and body to readjust its clock to a normal sleep pattern.

There are a lot of things which supposedly influence the body to sleep, but only GABA and melatonin are the ones that really work to the extent to be able to treat severe insomnia.

Gaia Herbs Sleep Thru Liquid Phyto-Capsules Lately I’ve been adding this to my sleep time supplementation. I know that the herb ashwagandha is supposed to be beneficial not just for sleep but for other issues such as adrenal stress, so have been using this.

Remember that nothing is perfect.  If you use these supplements and find that they are helping, of course you may still experience issues with sleeping.  Because I had severe insomnia for so long, when these episodes would occur I would feel really bad.

One important thing is to let go of that bad feeling and accept that its ok to still occasionally have a sleep issue.  Don’t stress about it and just keep following your regimen and relying on these supplements which will work and keep you in a healthy pattern.
