I’ve been struggling with insomnia for sometime. How do people manage to get up for work in the morning? Im changing jobs and worried I won’t be able to function on so little sleep.

How old are you and how much sleep are you actually getting, what’s your sleep routine?

What's actually happening, how much sleep do you get?

I often wake early and can't get back to sleep so on the odd night I take a boots sleepeaze tablet and it helps me sleep through.

Hi I’m 51, can’t sleep until say 2 or 3 in the morning, been like this for years, I was taking zopiclone which worked but I can’t get them anymore.

I need at least 8 hours to function.

Audiobooks, ones you already know the story. Sleep timer for 15 minutes. Repeat on waking during the night. Life changing for me.
