Bad sleep

**bigDman** · 07-12-2005, 04:00 AM

I can’t get a good night sleep. I mean if I don’t have a set time to get up I can usually get a good 10 hours, but after 4-8 hours after going to sleep I wake up with a dry mouth and having to pee. I go to pee before bed and I drink lots of water through out the day so I don’t know what’s up. Any of you guys experience this or know what’s up?

:bed: :sleepey:

Is this just a recent development?

Any changes going on in your life at around the same time?

**bigDman** · 07-12-2005, 02:03 PM

5htp <---------------- Try that for a while. My girlfriend had outstanding results using it. When we met she only slept 4-5 hours a night, and I couldn't stand it. So she started taking that, and ever since she has been getting almost 8 hours. It also helps with mood. Melontonin is another good one. King has some at his place I think.

I would take those before taking tylenol pm or anything.

I do not see much of an issue here... are you overly stressed?

**bigDman** · 07-12-2005, 03:33 PM

and the issue is waking up in the midle of the night ever night is so annoying and ive never had the problem accept lately.

Dan · 07-12-2005, 03:53 PM

some old guys have this issue ..

Do you drink beer?
Ask your doc

**Trick D** · 07-12-2005, 03:55 PM

You could simply have an overactive blatter... very common... even with teens. Something your doctor may be able to help you with

**bigDman** · 07-12-2005, 04:03 PM

That is totally normal. It all depends on how much water you drank prior to going to bed. When I drink alot of water, I wake up 2-3 times to take a leak. As long as you are getting 8hrs of sleep, you are fine.
