Suppose you have trouble sleeping at night, you go to the medicine cabnet and pull out a bottle of sleeping pille. The next morning you throw up, diarrhea, tired, migraines, and you aren't aloud to drive till noon. Would it in your opinion be worth all of that happening just to get a good nights sleep?!?!
Please be honest because this is for my science fair project..
Thank You In Advance!

Definitely not worth all the pain and suffering. Besides those stupid drugs help you get to sleep and then you often wake up tired and/or drowsy the next day. What the point of taking them. Better off just being tired without all the side effects.

First of all there are several kinds of sleeping aides.If you have had the symptoms that you described , I would say you took way too many pills and could have died.There are narcotic sleep aides and non-narcotic sleep aides.The non-narcotic supposedly can not make you addicted.-these include trazedone,serequil etc. The narcotic type is dangerous to use and are rarely prescribed for sleep.But doctors have written scrips for valium and clonapine for sleep, simply not on an every day basis.THen, there are the natural sleep remedies like Melatonin.3 mg. and I fall right out.
What you described would not happen unless
1. you had an allergic reaction to the sleeping pill
2. You took an over-dose amount

Nope, not worth it. Mostly just because people no longer only have over the counter sleeping pills as a form of help with insomnia. Here in Calgary we have Sleep Institutes where they study your sleeping patterns/habits and figure out how to make you sleep properly, there's also prescription medication doctors can prescribe that may be more effective then over the counter drugs.

No way!! You could have a bad reaction to that pill so don't have it. Either way, why would you risk a whole morning throwing up and on the toilet just to wake up the next morning fresh as a daisy but not able to go anywhere??

Yowee you extremely inspire some very worthwhile ideas. EVEN sturdy ones about a dumpster I lived basically off campus, college in sight drained by potential of the time my brains were weary slept as if in coma maximum nights Loaded and tied a bag two times a week spoke of a shabby guy who hung round "hi, what's yer call?" human beings basically call me geek. I went again in, the trash truck got here one guy might want to get out, direct the motive force as if in some strange, summary sport an identical guy might want to be there searching ahead to the hour interior the humid warmth of those pickup days or soaked to the exterior interior the now and again bathe palms clasped as if praying then waved his thanks an astonishing diorama or so i presumed as they jostled, shifted, putting down the tank. appreciate even the most elementary ranges of human kindness the trash men prevented Geeks small patch of plants At a level I were given yet another marvel, made wide awake of his entire blindness.

It would not be worth it when there are so many herbal sleep remedies that really work, such as melatonin and valerian root. Definately not worth it. You'll get tired enough to hit a wall and sleep without intentionally subjugating your body to that.

i have always been afraid to take sleeping pills,so i tried some tylenol pm, they work, but their not the greatest. and a friend of mine thats a nurse told me to try allergy pills. i know that they are non-drowsy, but they do something that relaxes your body and when you wake up you feel really relaxed, and honestly it was the best sleep i have gotten in a long time. maybe it would work for you as well

Why not sleep on the weekend when you can sleep off the effects of the sleeping pills or cut them in half and see if the side effects lessen??

No way. There are plenty of alternatives to get a good night sleep without those side effects.

If anything has that many side-effects I would rather just stick with the original problem. I would rather try some sort of herbal tea or something of that nature.
