Hi Sheila > My mother is having trouble sleeping at nights. What do others with PD > take to help them sleep? She's so afraid she'll become addicted to over > the counter sleep aids and refuses to take them for any length of time. I think she's right! We take far too many drugs, anyway :-) However, as an idea for solving her sleeping problem, why not try her on self-hypnosis/relaxation tapes? They really work for me. Some people need to go to a live hypnotherapy session first, to get the "feel" of how the hypnosis is working on them.
