Struggling with Insomnia, Need Advice

Anyone what experience bouts of insomnia? I will be on a totally normal-ish sleep schedule for a couple of weeks, then suddenly I can't sleep at night and will stay in this pattern for sometimes months. I am scared to take sleeping aids because I have a kid and a disabled mom that need me and I am scared that I would sleep through an emergency if I were to take anything. anyone have any helpful advice?

That's me! My doctor prescribed me hydroxyzine worked for a little then would make me wake up in the middle of the night with heartburn and nausea, a natural remedy I find helpful is yoga/tea/meditation helps naturaly cal the body

Hydroxyzine is awesome for evening anxiety and helps me relax. You could try sleepy time tea or any soothing caffeine free drink. I think it's about creating a night time routine

Yes. I have tried several different medications but so far nothing works😥
