When All Else Fails What if you still can't fall asleep? Should you take medication? "Sleeping pills and tranquilizers can be helpful in the short term," says Dr. Hauri. "They allow you to get to sleep if you're in a different time zone and absolutely need to be well rested and alert, or if there's been a death in the family, and the grief and stress have made it impossible for you to sleep. But if you're taking them more than once or twice a week, that may be a problem. Anytime your inability to sleep interferes seriously with your daytime functioning for more than a month or two, that's the time to seek professional help," he says. Indeed, if your insomnia is chronic, says Dr. Moore Ede, "you should try to work your way around medication; you're far better off dealing with the environmental and lifestyle issues that are likely to be keeping you awake."
