Reading the "Things That Are Bothering You" thread made me realize how common insomnia seems to be. I know I've been having a hard time lately falling asleep and going back to sleep if I get woken up. Stress is definitely a part of it, and it just becomes a vicious circle (stressed, can't sleep, stressed the next day, can't sleep again).
I'm a little nervous about sleep medication (OTC or prescription) because I'm afraid I'll be groggy in the morning for the commute. So, does anyone have any suggestions for how to get a better night's sleep?*
*I know a common suggestion will be to give up the coffee, but I refuse to give up my demon lover (I feel very strongly about my cup o' joe). I already cut myself off after two cups in the morning.
