Everyone who knows me knows i suffer from insomnia but refuse to take medication for it. It’s not only out of fear for potential dependency on it; i don’t like to take medication or supplements of any kind, not even vitamins. I just try to eat healthily and opt for natural remedies whenever possible. But desperate times call for desperate measures, so for bouts of severe insomnia, i take melatonin, or when i happen to be sick, too, ridiculous amounts of acetaminophen, neither of which helps at all. They actually make it worse by making me even sleepier but not helping me fall asleep. My usual causes of insomnia are:
1. overusing my mind
2. stress
3. depression
