extreme sleeplessness
Hello to all!I have a big problem - for months I have not been able to sleep properly. I have moved to another flat where the people upstairs are quite noisy, but also in the flat before where it was very quiet in the bedroom I was not able to sleep. I have problems to fall asleep when there are just some small sounds and even in the middle of the night, when it is completely quiet, I wake up between four and five in the morning and cannot fall asleep anymore. During the day I am so tired that I could fall asleep anywhere. As soon as I go to bed it is over, I can´t sleep. I know from people that they can sleep even with noise around them. Are there any techniques which I can learn to ignore these sounds or is there a homeopathic remedy which could help? I also have many problems in my life at the moment, at work, I have no partner and feel lonesome etc. I am female, 40 years old.
Thanks a lot for all advices,
a very tired Innanna

This is just a forum. Assume posts are not from medical professionals.
First thing to do is get a window fan or a machine that makes several noises that will "noise over" the noises from upstairs. As our population gets larger and less polite, this is an increasing problem.
Many people with ear noise or neighbors, learn to appreciate a fan. (must not rattle). Also there are plastic (soft like gum) clear ear plugs in pharmacy. Pull apart to fit ear and roll up. I have never had a problem with removing from ear, even with children.
Because your days and nights are mixed up, first use ARNICA (any potency) to help reverse this back. Two doses, one each night only as needed.
Do this after the fan. Because it is winter, go to used place to look or advertize for one.
Then after you do this part there are many ways to go with homeopathy.
You indicate feeling lonely. Find a support group. A woman's support group or mixed for depressed people. Two things may happen you may discover depression, or you may see that you are not depressed. Also you will not be alone.
Another thing a friend I have does is go to poetry meetings in the evening.
Last, but not least, Say, "Thank you God, for moving out either myself or the people upstairs and give me a comfortable place that is quiet AND send me the partner that is perfect for me. Always thanking first as if it is already done.
Blessings, Sabra

Hello Sabra,
thanks for your advices. Since I moved into the flat just three days ago I will thank him to move out the people over me but I think they have been living in this flat for several years and I am the "newcomer". The idea with the fan might be a good one. My biggest wish would be to find a partner and find a place to stay together with him.
Thanks a lot once again, your advice is much appreciated.
Sincerely,
Innanna

Do not make the mistake of being desperate for a partner. I say partner instead of man or woman because we (all) sometimes take 2nd best and sell ourselves short.
Between age 40 and 50 is the second teen years, especially for women. These are the years we examine who we really are and what we really want to be "when we grow up."
Women have a harder time with menopause during these years. Again, thank God "for perfect health and happiness" and any time something is disturbing physically, say " I am free of .......now and forever." Never say I don't want this. Just say "free of...."
I was blessed with a male teacher that tought me this. Such hard work he had with me. He said I was the most negative speaking woman he ever met!! Ripped the skin off me and I came back for more. (just a teacher, nothing else)
I knew this man had the secret of being happy and healthy. I was 35, 3 half grown boys and had fallen into that "worthless housewife" syndrome. In two years I was a new person. Took another ten years to master it.
I am happy and healthy and I am doing just what I want to do each day. I live alone, but I am not lonely.
Blessings, Sabra

Hi Innanna,
I am not a homeopathic doctor, so I can not recommend youre a remedy, but I have problems with my sleep for a long time. I would recommend you to buy at a book store or to order thorough Internet special relaxation CD with delta frequency, you have to listen to them using headphones, pretty often I am falling asleep listening to these CD ( just set up your CD player to replay button). Another thing which helped me is eye patches - to create the dark environment for you eyes . As you in order our bodies produce we need darkness (melatonin is produced to help our bodies regulate our sleep-wake cycle) . If you want you can e-mail me privately zikochkaxhotmail.com. Best wishes, Helena

Hello Helena,
also thank you for your suggestion. Music really helps me to fall asleep earlier. Unfortunately I am not able to treat my noisy neighbours and in this house you can hear everything. I will try though to find my own personal solution. Thanks a lot, Innanna

Hello Dr. Pankaj,
I tried Coffea in a high potency but it has not really worked out. The problem is I can´t really blend out sounds and it is not really quiet in my room.
I also realized that I have pain in my hair roots and it really hurts.
Please advise,
best regards,
Innanna

Try some SEPIA 1M. One dose after dinner each evening for 3 nights for the head/scalp.

Hi Innanna!
two things got my attention:
sensitivity to noise and waking up at 4 in the morning.
Both of these suit Nux Vomica.
of course, not having the case history and not knowing you, i am just going on the acutes. Try 3 granules of 5C on a one time basis just before going to bed. See what happens! and keep me posted too!
"Wanting to have a partner" sounds like "frustratin of being without a partner" - if this is really important to you, you should be looking into Staphysagria. But first things first, try the nux, which will already make you feel better, and give you clearer thinking, because if it works, you will be so much less tired.
good luck
