Guest ***nno**n*** Report post Posted June 29, 2013 So it's summer, we have longer days and try to pack in more things to do and some days I have a terrible time trying to get to sleep. So it's time for bed, you're wide awake. What do you do when you can't sleep? I would love to hear some ideas. Mine are 1. Masterbate - sometimes it's just built up tension 2. Read - but something boring 3. Workout - and hope it gets you tired. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Boomer 33202 Report post Posted June 29, 2013 I keep an internet radio next to the bed, it's remarkable what you can find on one of these in the middle of the night. I sometime wake up in the morning with it still playing. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Alfnewdeal 238 Report post Posted June 29, 2013 I use all your ideas shannoninwpg. And boomer but i listen to comedy, always in a happy mood when i wake up. Also, and hope it doesnt sound all spiritual and stuff, i envision. Just blackness with a single candle. I put my feelings into it and as i put them in it burns them away. Frustration, Anxiety, stress, and as I concentrate on the image, it seems to knock me out! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest A*ro**n Report post Posted July 1, 2013 I find if I start thinking about the dream I had the previous night, it gets my body into the rhythm for sleep. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jabba 18389 Report post Posted July 1, 2013 My problem is that lately I wake up about 3-3:30. No rhyme or reason. Just, "boink"...ok, I'm awake. Lie in bed all ya like buster, there's no getting back to sleep WTF!. Very frustrating. Tried taking 10mg of Melatonin last night. Worked to keep me asleep until 5am. Better.
