I have issues with waking up in the middle of the night and not being able to fall back asleep and it's making me tired during the day when I have to go to school and work what can I do to change that. Any Ideas that don't have anything to do with sleep medicine.

exercise at least for 30 minutes of hard sweating during the day you will sleep better at night

In addition to the other answers, avoid caffeine and alcoholic beverages before bedtime--I would say for at least 4 hours. Also avoid eating large meals and drinking large amounts of liquids directly before going to bed. Avoid late day naps. Quiet dark room. Warm milk. If all else fails--try melatonin for a couple of day--it's a natural way to trick the body--works for most.
Good luck!

I wish I knew the answer to that one, I could sure use a good night's sleep. I too tend to wake up at the most inoppurtune times and then can't go back to sleep and am tired all day long.
Not good you know.
p.s. I refuse to take sleeping pills even though my doctor gave me some samples of Lunesta. *sigh*

Why do we say night night sleep tight instead of night night sweet dreams

Always always always get up at the exact same time everyday, no matter how alte you go to bed. I was a bad insomniac, but i tried this, and im cured. It's all about getting that body clock working.

Do you caffeine in your diet by chance? Sometimes the body shocks us in the middle of the night while resting

melatonin is a chemical that regulates sleep. the human body makes it naturally. some people dont have as much as others. try taking a melatonin supplement and see if that helps

some people fall asleep with music, or just don't think about anything, if your mind keeps thinking you wont sleep
