Help I must sleep from 3pm-10:30pm tomorrow what should I take? Will melatonin work?
My husband works tomorrow from 4:30 am until 3 pm and later he gets to sleep from 3 until 10:30 and then must work from friday 11 Pm until saturday 6pm. 19 hours! and afterwards sleep from 8 pm until 4 am He gets to sleep again but then on sunday he have to work from 4am until 6pm on sunday.
He is a Ironworker so he is building a trainstation in downtown chicago. So he must get his sleep while he can he will be sleeping contained by the car between shifts because we live 90 minutes away from chicago so he would lose three hours of sleep if he came home
what can he bear that will knock him out quickly and not be droggy when he wakes up to work?
10 points to best answer!
Answer: Natural supplements contained by my experience are most effective. 5-10 milligrams of melatonin, or a liquid calcium is other available locally , helps alot. A natural vitamin call CALM, or DREAMZ, anything high in magnesium and calcium out to do the trick! Sometimes one beer or one cup of wine if stress is a factor keeping your mind awake , massage, holosync earphone meditation will put you out, no issue who you are :).
These answers are good to help you sleep. Melatonin is accurate but a little strong. When I take melatonin I am groggy for 14-16 hours next. Go to a health food store and buy some good Valerian Root. It is a root herbal supplement to facilitate relax and allow for sleep. If he can sleep at least 5 hours...tell him to run 2 about 30-60 mins before wanting to budge to sleep. If not, only take one. When I bring two, I'm out by the 60 mins. it will relax you first and you will notice it gradually. Then you stir lay down, roll over and you're out. Its safe and won't make you groggy if used correctly. this is an herb that is to say actually found in valium also. Just not lethal...it has a FOUL odor though. Best sleep aid I've ever encountered..
i used nyquil.merely not a whole dose
