Insomnia question?

[Gym bunny]

I've had sleep problems for 3 months solid now with no let up. Had various blood tests all normal. I have just found a sleep help web site and it states that drinking alcohol can actually cause insomnia. I never thought this could be the cause of my problems, I normally have between 1-3 glasses of wine a night (thinking alcohol helped me sleep!). I guess up to 3 glasses is too much, but normally have between 1-2 a day, it depends how stressed work and the children have made me. I didn't for one minute think this would cause the sleep problem. People I have spoken to have always said "have a glass of wine, that'll help you sleep"!!! Has anyone else experienced this and if so, by cutting it out completely, have you slept better?

I would say stress is causing it. You need to chill out more and get whats on your mind out. Alcohol certainly makes sleep quality worse. You'll wake still very tired.
