have you tried melatonin? apparently babies have more in their system than adults.
I suffer from chronic insomnia and therefore chronic fatigue; the one herbal supplement that has helped me combat chronic fatigue is recommended by my internist, that is: Astra Isatis. Take three tablets with warm water three times a day between meals. You'll notice a huge difference in energy levels within six weeks, and your insomnia issues will begin to resolve. Good luck!
You are in a big quandry. Not enough sleep can cause tiredness during the day, and then eventually aches and pains, that wake you in the night and you can not get enough sleep. And then you are in a downward spiral.
Below are 2 sites that I like regarding how to get healthy sleep. Making getting ready for sleep a routine, with developed habits, helps to prepare your body for sleep.
I do not know about an herb, but I do know about vitamin D and the body's need. It is used by all cells of the body, to help protect against all diseases, including pain. Most of us do not get enough.
Exciting new research shows vitamin D insufficiency in almost epidemic proportions. Lack of sun on the skin in last 30-40 years parallels the rise in autoimmune diseases, diabetes, colon and other cancers, fibromyalgia and many other diseases. Probable future recommendations are 1,000 - 2,000 IU/day. Source - use Vit D pill for now, until better information. Vitamin D gellcaps or pills can be purchased in most drug stores or on the internet.
If you are not getting enough vitamin D today, a supplement is needed, and I believe it will help you sleep.
Good luck
