I can't sleep at night?

Question

i'm 14 years old, and latley at my grandmas house i cant sleep at night.

i usually go to bed anywhere from 11-2 p.m/a.m

i eat some sugar/ caffine, but that stuff has never affected my sleep.

i usually take long naps during the day, cause i get cranky, and i have nothing better to do to pass the time.

all this summer i've been sleeping well, but for a week or 2 i just cant fall asleep and i ALWAYS wake up everynight around 3 - 4 a.m and no matter what, i cant fall back asleep for at least an hour or usually longer.

its really annoying.

what can i do to sleep better, besides take any types of pills?

Answer 1

My daughter was on risperdol, really strong med and it knocked her out. We wanted to get her off them so we are using Melatonin. IT is a supplement. Only take 1. Get the 3 mg w/o anything in it. Its not a drug. Look up other websites on it, you would be surprised how many people use it.........................

Answer 2

Taking long naps during the day messes up your sleep cycle.

Naps should be no longer than 15-30 minutes.
