How many of you...

I usually do pretty good until around 3:00 AM and from then until I get up at 7:00 I am awake and asleep several times. Melatonin does seem to help some.

Pretty close to my problem. Start out well, but for some reason I wake up after 3-4 hours and have an awful time going back to sleep.

Kev, I know someone with the problem you describe. Not trying to scare you, and I'm not a doctor, but it sounds like you're getting old.

I'd suggest you check your birthdate and make sure there's still a number 2,3,4 that begins your age. If not, unfortunately it's what I feared.

LOL! I was afraid that's what it was.
It's weird, my mind thinks I'm still young, but my body is telling me otherwise.
I hope all is well with you and your family.

I must be starting to go down that road.. in the last year I've gone from needing 8 hours of sleep onto 7 or 6.5. I'm not super tired when I wake up, but not fully refreshed either. Roll around for a bit trying to get back to sleep, and if I don't fall back, I just get up and start the day.

I know what your saying.

I usually wake up to pee every 3.5 hrs. I've seen a few doctors about it. They basically told me nothing was wrong and to not drink so much water. I actually drink the recommended 8 glasses per day.

I've now started guessing what time it is when I get up, then looking at ththe clock to see how close I am. I'm getting really good at my game.

ambien works great for me, but I also use trazadone, melatonin and somnapure (natural) You have prostate problems. BEWARE, that crap can kill you, from the stress of blocked urination, even if it's not cancerous.

I can hold my pee all night, but falling asleep is a *****. I suffer from irritable leg syndrome and can't lay them still, sometimes most of the night. It's apparantly becoming more and more common.

I developed that in the last year. Feels like a cat jumps up on the bed and constantly walks around the foot of the bed. I thought it was a ghost cat before I learned what it was.

I'm 45 and I'm not getting up to piss until my alarm goes off. I'll roll right over and go back to sleep.

You won't be doing that at 60. When you gotta go at that age, you gotta go quick.

I have to go about every three hours and three days ago bought a "toilet light" so I don't piss all over the floor anymore. Works great. I wish I had invented that.

I'm almost 57 and I don't have to get up to piss. Long as I don't drink a lot right before bed I'm fine.

Two things, 1) I am so good at guessing what time it is when I wake up! I feel Ike it's a skill(it's not).

2) I drink a lot of water a day and keep a bottle by the bed. There's no such way I can properly hydrate and not piss at some point in the night.
