I'm lying here , staring at the ceiling , wondering if there are any natural sleeping pills that works well. Two Allergex knocks me out cold , but don't think the long-term use of it is good. Also makes me feel funny in the mornings until I've had about two cups of coffee.

I tried this FoodGrown Sleep Support but it gave me an anxiety attack/feeling that that turned my brain into a horror show. Felt like darkness has consumed my soul. STAY AWAY!

Have you tried meditation? I highly recommend Waking Up by Sam Harris. I believe they have a free trial.

I starter it and since practising it, I can pretty much fall asleep in an instant. Useful for when you are feeling so run down you don’t even feel tired anymore.

I prefer Slow Jazz.
 
A lot of stuff knocks you out but doesn't really let you rest. I've noticed when I got a watch with sleep tracking that I don't enter REM and the deep sleep is very limited vs having a good nights sleep so its not good to get used to using those bandaids.

I have the same problem as you with alergex even one and I'm groggy til at least 11am.

Hopefully someone has something that works for those crappy nights when your brain just won't quit and let you sleep.
 
Why do you want natural sleeping pills ? Why everyone so obsessed with natural.

Cyanide will put you to sleep and it's natural.

Natural does not equate to side effect free and safe. Doesn't work well and is usually very expensive.

If you want safe and tested substances stay with the meds.

And since a couple of guys here are saying allergex tabs. Please don't. There's another antihistamine we use to sedate patients prone to substance abuse. The tiny blue one ask your pharmacist or doctors they'll know.

You're not alone, I have serious sleeping issues...

I'm considering trying cannabis myself, well it's cannabis infused juice that you can buy...

The issue with a lot of sleeping pills is they don’t mimic natural sleep. They can mess with the normal sleep stages so you get the hours but not the same quality. Then the next day you don’t feel properly refreshed, just kind of groggy. So I’d rather try to find a fix the root cause.

Yes but generally when someone starts asking for sleeping pills they have already googled their way through that process. The OP probably has too much coffee and screentime and some people are just wired that way to not sleep at the night and suffer from serious social jet lag. If that's the case then they need professional help.
