Sleep Problems

Nothing like a good ol' sleep in history.

Lol, just kidding.

Good luck sleeping tonight. Just daydream for a while with your eyes shut, and down't think about actually trying.
Oh, and starting with the feet, work up, relaxing every single muscle in your body until you're completely relaxed :3

 

There is your problem right there then. Ur bored. Becuz of this boredum, you are going to a point where you are urging for something to do. In doing so, you have created a sleep dilemma ^_^

Dunno if I am on the ball with this one, but if I am, then now you just have to solve ur boredum, and then u shall sleep fine ^_^

 

Open your window a bit before you go to bed to slowly cool your room

 

Hey guys, I actually forgot to do whatever you guys suggested for the past two nights. Two nights ago I heard one song and then for some reason I felt really at peace so I turned off the music and immediatly fell asleep. Last night I slept with a playlist of soft songs on all night without waking up once. So I don't know what happened, but I've actually been sleeping better =).

 

Yay ^.^ hopefully you will be able to sleep better in the future ^.^

 

Watch something boring on TV
Stuff like paid programming or talk shows; idk. helps me out

 

What helps me is to either read a boring text book that will make you nod off, drink warm milk, try some relaxation techniques such as mindfulness which is gentle breathing and listening to your breath, or listening to soft calm soothing music. If those techniques don't help, you could keep a journal of your condition such as your good and bad days and don't leave out any details such as your thoughts of anything. This way you'll have a record and will be able to tell a doctor if you need to see one.

 

I had an insomnia problem for 2 years.
it eventually just went away... weird:gunwtf:

 

I have rather horrible insomnia that creeps up often but some things I do that tend to help are:

Take a warm bath before going to sleep or shower.
Drink a glass of milk around half an hour or so before bedtime.
Listen to soft music like Pure Moods, Enya, or some storm or waterfall music.
Sleep on your back or sides. Don't sleep on your abdomen.
Prop your knees up under a pillow which will help circulation and let you move less in sleep.
Make sure you are warm enough and the air is cool enough so that you are comfortable. Get an extra blanket if you need one. Make sure your bed is as comfy as you can make it. You may also want a fan in your room to circulate around the air a bit.
Try closing your eyes part of the way and doing a light meditation counting from 1 to 10, going back to 1 after completion, on your out-breath (exhale) and breathe in slowly filling air to your abdomen instead of chest. Do that a few times sitting crosslegged on your bed and that might help reduce some clutter in your mind. Also if the counting doesn't work, try thinking that when you breathe in through your nose, you are in taking good positive light energy and imagine the air as golden white in color. When breathing out, think of it as black smoke that is your thoughts and clutter, negative energy that you have built through the day.
Try lightly stretching before bed time. Don't do anything strenuous. Just a relaxing stretch.
Make sure the lighting in your room is not too much. It's harder to sleep if there is too much sound or lighting in the room as it is too busy for most people to want to take. Maybe have the computer on a screen saver that does not change or is not obstructive if the computer is in your room. Use a single nightlight. Other lights should be minimal. Don't keep the tv on though for some people it can help them sleep. For a lot of people it is more distracting than they think.
Make sure you don't drink caffeinated drinks at least 2 or 3 hours before bed time. Drink more water and sugarless drinks if you can during late hours.
Try to not do homework right before bed. Instead do it earlier on in the day so that it is still not carried over with you and your mind is racing with thoughts of it.

Hopefully those help you out some. I disobey some of them and have to try to get myself back on it. Persistence helps though whatever you do, try to do it in a relaxed manner as bed time approaches. Maybe listen to some soft music and sing along, read a bit before bed or something to help relax you. I wish you luck.
