it’s an eight year old injury. Stabbing head pain and insomnia and waking up with severe internal tremors are with me for life :)
But modern medicine is moving pretty quickly, so who knows. Kava Kava? will look it up

Regarding Kava, here's an article covering the good and the bad of it. It does seem to have a sedative effect, but there is also a discussion of liver problems.

WebMD Kava

You might also want to take a look at Unisom Sleep Melts. They work for me, and are they are not habit-forming. Also, they are over-the-counter. The only side effect I've noticed as a slight dry mouth. Not a big deal.

Of course, check with your doctor to be sure they are right for you. And check the package carefully. Some Unisom products are habit-forming, but as I said, the melts are not. It'll say so on the package.

Good luck!
