Uranus in the 12th, conjunct Scorpio ascendant. Using certain other house systems, Pluto is moved to the 12th.

Sometimes I'm fine, but mum had trouble getting me to sleep when I was small, and then I'd be up at dawn with my dad (until she pointed out several years later, that I didn't *have* to be up that early, because I was on school vacation - she had trouble waking me up after that).

When there was trouble at home, I would walk in the middle of the night, until I was too tired to walk anymore. Then I'd shower, and fall asleep on the couch.

makes sense it works given the lemon balm and wild lettuce in it in particular

lemon balm in large doses can help with minor pain + anxiety and is relaxing

wild lettuce you can actually smoke also has pain relief qualities too. another name for it is opium lettuce because it has opium-esque qualities in large doses

lavender is soothing as well though i'm willing to bet the more active ingredients are the lettuce and lemon balm

I did zzzquill for about a year, then switched to calm legs which is like a sleep multivitamin but I feel I need to address this on a spirit level, like my soul needs to learn to chill out, be still and my body and spirit need to agree to let go and go to sleep. I love sleeping but is like my spirit and body are at war at first, my body is like "I want to move around now, lets get out of here" and my spirit is like "lets go to dream land, stay put" and is like they are battleling it out and I am like "WTF is wrong with me!?" Lol. Is hard to describe but is insanely frustrating some nights.

Jupiter rules my 1H and my 12H and conjuncts my Uranus exact in the 12H.

12H Ruler and its aspects and placements could be the culprit too.

My friend has been suffering from severe insomnia. Her 12th is intercepted with Aries Sun/Mercury/Chiron conjunct in the house.

12th cusp is at 29deg Pisces, ruler Neptune in Sagittarius 8H opposite Gemini Venus/Mars/Saturn trine Aries Mercury/SN/Chiron quincunx Taurus ASC sextile Libra Pluto semi-sextile Capricorn Jupiter.

Sagittarius Moon (not conjunct Neptune) in 8H square Pluto trine Sun/Chiron/ASC.

Mercury has a lot of aspects. Besides the conjunction to Sun/Chiron, it also oppose Pluto/Uranus/Juno sextile Mars/Saturn trine Neptune.

in that case i find meditation helpful, whether you fall asleep or not past that (pushing yourself to lucid dream states possible afterall) you at least feel rested after

it's my longtime sleep substitute, i started when i was a kid but i didn't realize that's what i was doing back then

I think is clearing out stuff energetically, contamination of sorts related to the process of falling sleep and helping my body return to its natural rhythm of falling sleep that was present when I was younger.

I have had a pinched nerve in my neck for most of my life, for which I’ve taken Vicodin. I do not like to use Vicodin, however, as I am worried about damage to my liver.

I started using California Poppy in the morning and at night, and my pain went away—it’s like a miracle drug! The California Poppy takes longer than Vicodin to work, but the pain does go away. I stopped using it, as I felt I no longer needed it.

Recently, I have had severe tooth pain and have not yet been able to see a dentist. I thought to try the California Poppy. To my amazement, I have been without pain!
