Hi Guys ...
My girlfriend has a lot of trouble with sleep, and I just wondered if anybody might be able to recommend anything.
Although she gets quite hyperactive, or at least gets a 2nd wind before we go to bed (normally around 11:30pm) she never has any problems nodding off, and will usually sleep fine for the first few hours. But she seems to have incredibly vivid dreams that relate to things that have happened during the day, or that she has seen on TV that evening. These almost always wake her up. She then goes off to sleep again, but feels like she is woken 9 or 10 times in the night by vivid dreams. She never feels she has a good nights sleep. And regularly wakes around 5am and can't get back to sleep. She will then feel very drained all day long.
Is there anything people can recommend to stop these vivid dreams?
Thanks in Advance!

Does she have Celiac Disease or Gluten Intolerance? I have bad dreams/trouble sleeping when I have been "glutened."
I noticed I have bad dreams as well. They are not nightmares just disturbing dreams.
