Whenever I’ve tried in the past to quit, the first three nights are usually brutal. Once the alcohol wears off, there’s something in wine which tends to keep me wide awake. Three nights is apparently how long it takes for wine to completely clear my system, and in the past, those tend to be three straight all-nighters. On a number of occasions, I’ve given up and drank again just to be able to sleep. So I’ve recently been experimenting with sleep aids. I don’t want prescription sleeping pills because of having struggled with depression that at times became life-threatening. Melatonin, a natural sleep aid, has no overdose threshold. I’ve tried several types and have found one that works for me: Power to Sleep PM. Looking forward to getting to sleep tonight!
