I can usually fall asleep at night however sometimes I wake up 3 or 4 times a night. Nevertheless I’ve woken up tired every day for the past 5 weeks. I stoped taking OTC sedatives, but recently I heard that Perscription sleep aids really help you get a good nights sleep. Is this true.

It’s true. I’ve had to use sleep meds myself. I DO NOT recommend Ambien. I caused myself and others to have psychotic episodes. It’s very dangerous and my doctor will not prescribe it. There are several more safe meds that you can get from your doctor. They do help. Sometimes it takes a while to find one that works for you best.
You could try Melatonin. You can purchase it OTC. It is a natural chemical that is in the brain. Take 1 or 2 at bedtime. There are a lot of prescription meds for insomnia and they are effective for most people.
