I always slept like a baby until I reached 55. The last seven years have been horrible. I've followed all the "rules" --no caffeine, going to bed at the same time every night and all the rest--to no avail. The thing is I can't say I'm really worrying about anything, I'm just wide awake. I tried sleep meds but they left me with feeing drowsy far too long the next day. So I finally settled on going to bed when I was tired, and if I fell asleep fine, and if not, I get up and sew or do whatever I can without waking up DH. It's no fun that's for sure, but I have not found a solution that works for me.
