I have a sleeping problem that I have had for years. It started when I began taking diet pills. I would need the aid of sleeping medication to make me sleep. This is ten years later and I still need over the counter pills to make me sleep. I also have to hear a noise while I sleep. I beleive this stemmed from living on railroad tracks and not being able to sleep through the horns. I would have my fan on the drown out the noise of the hrons. It will usually be a fan or I found a sound I like on the sound machine. If I forget to turn it on, I will not sleep. Also if I forget to take my pills I will not sleep. If I go on vacation or sleep at someone's house I never sleep, because usually they do not have a fan. Can anyone help me with this problem. It is actually ruining my relationship with a new boyfriend because I can't sleep at all in his bed. Any suggestions, I would apprecaite it. I hope there is a cure out there.
