I average about 3 hours sleep a night. The main blockage appears to be my inability to switch off. Tried: listening to music, watching telly, doing nothing for a couple of hours before bed, tried doing loads of exercise, I have been prescribed amitriptrline by the GP 2 years ago, nothing it has helped me at all.
Does anybody else struggle this way and does anybody have any ideas to help.
In the past people had two sleeps per night. Doing so might be useful to some people:

Fascinating reading.
Perhaps reading is one useful use of ones time in the gaps between the sleeps.
