Soothing the night....

The earplugs might work great. Many years ago when I worked a swing shift, I found that I could sleep any time of the day or night, if I wore earplugs. I didn't really even have to be tired. For some reason, depriving myself of sound, just makes my body shut down. Its cheap enough to try.

Tune your AM radio to "white noise," a point at which there
is no signal from a station. Adjust the volume level.
See if the bird likes it.

Thanks for suggestions. I'll try to download the sounds of swamp or lake. I've got used to them when I was a kid.

I've reached a need for melatonine 9...10 unitsx3mg that would not help.

How about this? Now, that's what I'm talking 'bout!!!

Marakanetz...I use a cheap noise generator like this :

As for Melatonin, it needs to be pharmaceutical-grade and dosed properly. I'll give u a link, but one 0.5mg capsule should be taken 2 hours before bedtime. It's a hormone that tells the body that it's time to go to sleep; you may have a deficiency (I've been diagnosed by an MD). IT IS NOT USED LIKE A SLEEPING PILL. At bedtime, you may take a second dose. I find that during the 2 hour period I am starting to yawn and although not sleepy yet, the hormone is doing it's job.

This is pharmaceutical grade and recommended by 2 of my docs (0.5 mg is pure with no fillers)...
