What is the best remedy for a chronic insomnia?

I’ve been sleepless for 3 consecutive days. I tried melatonin from GNC but it just made me dizzy but not sleepy at all. I’ve been feeling backpain and dizziness due to sleeplessness. What are some practical solutions to my insomnia? I’ve been an insomniac since I was a teen. Pls. advise.

I’ve had insomnia since I was a teenager too. It’s awful. My story is at http://www.fms-help.com/insomnia.htm. I am now 56. A list of things I’ve tried for sleep is at http://www.fms-help.com/sleep.htm. I hope you will find some help. My doc recently switched my meds around and I’m starting to sleep sounder, although not as long as other people. Check out my homepage too at http://www.fms-help.com. Chronic insomnia can wreck your health and immune system, so it’s important to find a doc who will work with you on it to find a med that works for you, but doesn’t give you too many bad side effects, like next day hangover. Of course, you could always try some OTC sleep meds first. If they work, you won’t need to see doc for something stronger.
