Early morning exercise can cure sleep problems. Try that first.

Pay attention to nutrition. Get rid of all the processed crap and eat real food with only 1-2 ingredients per item. Splurge on good fruit like honeycrisp apples or grapes for a sugar fix....fruit really helps. Bad nutrition aggravates depression.

My husband says he has insomnia that he can't do anything about, but when he avoids drinking and does the above things, he has no problems. He also snores less!!!! Win for me.
I think you're on to something, Sassy... I get up early every morning and work out like hell. Add my crazy job and 2 active kids, I am EX.HAU.STED. by the end of the day. Sleep is waiting for me... real sleep.

Still working on the eating thing. I'm fighting the sugar battle. I HATE IT. Can't seem to stop. Ugh.
