Prescription sleeping pills are almost always addictive. Believe it or not, some mildly strenuous exercise before bed, combined with relaxation techniques help many. Melatonin isn't so bad though.

Exercise before bed is almost universally recommended against by sleep experts.

I'm not talking about running a marathon. Yoga and stretching get the blood and body moving. A walk after dinner is also a good idea if you can.

Oh. Our definitions of exercise differ.

Crikey!

This'll make his Joker performance even more creepy and sinister! :eek:

Just now I'm watching CNN news. "Ledger's Autopsy Today"....

Terrible! He was suffering from depression and was taking medication for it.
Paul, if it is not a violation of ethics, can you give us your input as a medical man on this-based on what is known so far?

Really?
because I cant get to sleep without a pill and all of my co-workers are telling me to get ambien.

right now I use melatonin

Ambien worked wonders for me, I only used it short term to deal with some severe insomnia but it really did the job for me. The thing I liked about Ambien was that in the morning I didn't feel drugged or groggy after taking it. The thing that concerned me about Ambien was that when I used it, I would fall asleep, sleep through the night, and wake in the exact same position I fell asleep in. Which to me was really really weird as I am a light sleeper who tosses and turns a lot. So my mind being what it is was just concerned that if something happened during the night would I be able to wake up and deal with it?


This is too bad about Ledger. I enjoyed most stuff he was in and am really looking forward to him in the new Batman movie. Really too bad that someone so young with a new daughter and what would seem a very promising life would end up here.

I have heard that as well. What is the general opinion about this medication among medical people? Anyone know?

so I hear the Westboro Baptists are coming out to protest his funeral. had a big press release about how god hates faggots.

sick. just sick.

can't we dress a couple of their cousins up in miniskirts and detour them?

hey WBC- tell ya what. when your God shows up to bitch about it, we'll call. OK?

you know what, I'm giving these creep their own thread on Off Topic. If the Queens so choose to kill it, I am but their humble servant. Until them I say it's worth discussion. See you there.

Maybe the Devil's Harlot and her minions will be hit by another big lawsuit and it will sink in - Push and you'll be Shoved!
