@Hi, I feel tired everyday because I can't sleep at night. I've discussed it with my Primary care physician & Neurologist. They told me to take sleep pills I did but I stop taking them they have me drowsy all day & Neurologist want me to get checked for sleep apnea I haven't done that yet though. HeIp, do anything of you take anything to sleep well at night that works? I'm 54 yrs. old & I've been told I'm just going through menopause but it's been bout 2 yrs. now. I do most of my sleeping in the morning & still I be exhausted most days.😔🫩 on Shift.ms

I have been using a magnesium complex, and especially magnesium citrate helps with sleep. If you take it at bedtime, it might work for you as well

@conquer all

I just went through the same thing. Sleep Apnea was negative. I’ve always been a light sleeper so any little thing wakes me and bathroom trip keep me awoke even longer. I don’t know what their next step is but I’m going to buy the melatonin extended release and see if that helps. I already take magnesium and that only relaxes me but it doesn’t stop me from waking throughout the night.
