Please I'm asking this for a friend.

To the doctors and health practitioners we have here, how can one end sleepless nights?

I met this friend recently (a girl actually) on a WhatsApp group chat. It was 1am and I was bored by what I was doing so I started replying to the messages in the group chat. This girl replied too and I jokingly asked her why she was still awake at that time, she didn't seem so comfortable to answer the question in the group chat so we went private.

She explained that for over 5 years now she doesn't sleep at night. I was moved cos I'm the type that value sleep a lot.

Please what can she do to start sleeping again? According to her, she has taken so many medications yet to no avail. What could be a lasting solution to this.

She is not my girlfriend please, I'm just concerned and trying to help

Your opinions are highly appreciated.
Thanks

In case I made mistakes in my grammar, please pardon me.

right now am downloading the "sound of rainfall and thunder storm" from youtube, i heard it helps in mediation and good rest/sleep, she can listen to it while reading or meditating. it should help somehow i guess

OBVIOUSLY, the lady's problem is ADDICTION TO ELECTRONIC GADGETS. INSOMNIA is the symptom, not the problem.

I can't type all the advice she needs here. But she can get professional help on this. The problem is bigger than she thinks. Thank you.

Let her boil a whole banana at night and drink the water when it is cold down.

Eat hot beans and hold the mess from coming out.
Re: What Is The Best Cure For Insomnia? by Ecorleon(m): 3:05am On Mar 19, 2019
Let her see a psychiatrist to diagnose the cause of her insomnia. There are underlying factors that needed to be addressed and once that is taken care of, her sleep will improve. She could be passing through an episode of clinical anxiety.

Re: What Is The Best Cure For Insomnia? by GeneralB: 3:19am On Mar 19, 2019
One of these must work if she use at night before lights out, thank me later grin grin
Promathazine tab or injection, emzolyn with codeine syrup or expectorant, Diezapame, Rophienol.


The only problem is that it could be addictive and cause more harm than the present insomnia.
Re: What Is The Best Cure For Insomnia? by echodrum(m): 3:31am On Mar 19, 2019
To cure insomnia, you have to determine the cause. Once you find out the cause it will be easier to find the solution.
Stress, substance abuse, or any other life styles like over using of phone during night time.
Re: What Is The Best Cure For Insomnia? by nadiq1: 3:32am On Mar 19, 2019
There are several underlying factors that can cause inability to sleep or even sleep well (Insomnia). How is her mental health? Depression, anxiety, ptsd, and even some general medical conditions, medications, and habits can also cause insomnia. She needs to go in for evaluation.
Re: What Is The Best Cure For Insomnia? by nadiq1: 3:34am On Mar 19, 2019
If she can find it, Melatonin works great! It is natural, non addictive, and can be bought without prescription.

Tell her to put 3 or 4 garlic under her pillow n place her head on it and sleep, it's a natural n an old way to actually activate sleep.

Thank me later
seriously? I'm having same issue too. Mine is even more than 5 years. I wake up in the middle of the night and won't be able to sleep for hours even if my phone is off.
Re: What Is The Best Cure For Insomnia? by vickthourh(m): 3:35am On Mar 19, 2019
Tell her to get original codeine,just two tablespoon in the evening...
Re: What Is The Best Cure For Insomnia? by PotatoSalad(m): 3:36am On Mar 19, 2019
The replies killed me grin
As someone who has insomnia due to changed lifestyle, what you need to do...
1. Have sex or beat your meat. Sorry to say but it works faster than all remedies for insomnia.
2. Take a long walk in the evening or do some exercises
3. Have big money in your account. You'll sleep comfortably
4. Stay away from caffeine
5. Take 1 piriton tablet. You'll wake up at 1pm grin

These worked for me although I choose to sleep whenever I want

I’ve been in this situation for years. Whatever she does, she shouldn’t use medication, else it will get to a point where the drug becomes like chalk, no effect. Then she begins to look for something stronger. I’ve been here cry

Evening workouts will help. Drinking a lot of juice and water during the day is good too.

She can try ASMR videos on YouTube as well to relax her mind when she’s physically ready for bed. She’d need good earphones. This is what I’m using currently, works like magic for me.

Im still battling my own insomnia although it is much better. Let me try and sleep now before 4 am will meet me here grin
I think I'll start trying the evening work out...

Beet root and ginger all juice will make you sleep like like a baby. It also takes care of high blood pressure and makes you dick very well. Thank me later

Warm bath and warm tea at night before bed is another solution

Long walk or strolling round befor taking warm bath at night also help

It's very simple. Depending on her location. Let her go for meridian body massage. Insomnia will be a thing of the past. I'm a living witness. Dm me for more info
Re: What Is The Best Cure For Insomnia? by genieplus86(f): 4:46am On Mar 19, 2019
Practice MINDFULNESS. Meditation. Even if you are a Christian or Moslem. Use your scriptures. And try simple breathing techniques. It will put you to sleep easily. Live for the moment because true happiness is found in "momeny".
Re: What Is The Best Cure For Insomnia? by dapsin999(m): 4:48am On Mar 19, 2019

The honey mentioned by that nairalander is giving me the believe that he knows little to the solution,cos even now am experiencing same health challange.

But mine is said to be caused by ''Ulcer of the stomach, it could cause sleepless night,short breath,sleep but only some few hours. When the food eaten before sleep goes against it,it's the worst.

So, let her try the method and see or she should try 'Danacid Asad' liquid.It's in the phamarcy.
Re: What Is The Best Cure For Insomnia? by Doctorwhite(m): 5:00am On Mar 19, 2019
Sorry to hear about your friend condition.
First, she needs to meet a psychiatrist for advice.
Secondly, she will also try to avoid noising environment which might contribute to distress when sleeping.
Thirdly, she needs to take cup of milk with out tea every 9:pm daily before going to bed
Lastly, avoid thinking. [color=#006600][/color]
