I have been saying the following affirmation to myself: "I will be happy at night and I will sleep through the night." I figure it's a low risk / high reward tactic. For unknown reasons I'm often happy throughout the day but feel a bit depressed when trying to fall asleep, and I have been waking up in the middle of the night. I'm trying affirmations because of the success Dilbert creator Scott Adams has had with them.
No idea whether youve tried melatonin. I dont really use it anymore, but it greatly helped develop familiarity with the feeling of falling asleep, such that it is a lever that I can much more easily pull now. Used 1-3mg doses for a while, then found that ~75-150 mcg did the job quite well.
I have taken melatonin almost every night for over 20 years. I agree with you that trying melatonin is an excellent suggestion for someone with a sleep problem.
