Up till two nights ago I was drinking alcohol before bedtime cause I found it helped me sleep. As I subsequently felt like crap next morning I have decided to stop. For the past two nights though I can't sleep and am awake for a long time before drifting off. Subsequently I am very tired now in the morning.

Thanks for all your ideas. Like the Kalms suggestion. Can't read in bed as husband goes to bed early as he's gets up for work early.

Try drinking a cup of warm milk before you go to bed, or read a book.

Try letting your mind settle,open a window slightly to get some fresh air as too warm a bedroom can cause you to be restless.
Try a few drops of lavender on your pillow to aid sleep.
A cup of hot chocolate or cocoa before bed.
Try calms from the chemist, stop worrying.
If all else fails ask Dr for some sleeping pills

You should be avoiding alcohol 3 Hours before sleep and food 4-6 Hours!
Your body will then be in a Place to switch off!
Do you exercise a Lot during the daytime?-That could have an effect o your sleep patterns if you don't!!

Try an over the counter sleeping pill. You may need to go to your dr and get a stronger sleeping pill. Something that helps me sleep is benadryl.

Talk to a doctor about sleeping aids. Count sheep. Good luck!
