I can't fall asleep...

[lilminx]

Ok- I finally tried to go to sleep about an hour ago (12:30 am) and lay awake in my bed... finally I gave up and came back to lit...
This happens to me often (the not sleeping well part).
Any suggestions? And please don't give me the warm milk suggestion- I have no milk in my apartment and it makes me gag just to think of it...

 

[freakygirl]

I have no advice.. sorry

I have NO problems sleeping.. i love to sleep.. i just don't require much.. so i don't do it often.

did you try a warm bath?
reading a book?
watching a really boring show on tv?

wait.. wanna see a nude pic of me? puts my husband to sleep every night!

 

[lilminx]

Maybe I'll try the book- I can't take a bath right now- makes too much noise for my roomie (the water, not what you were thinking, perv! ) and a boring TV show will just bore me, not put me to sleep...

I just wish I had a bathtub.. so i could do what you thought i thought you were talking about

The idiot (my dad) who remodeled my bathroom (it's my parents house that i'm living in, they did the remodeling) put in a shower only. NO TUB!!!! and I hate it!

good luck falling asleep

Talk to you tomorrow..

Time to get offline.. hubby is bringing a friend home from work to work on the comp (i find nothing wrong with it, it works just fine for posting at Lit )

But you know men..They want bigger (unless it's their women) and better.. they are never satisfied..

Night Night

I recently read about it

Have you tried mixing booze and boinking? Apparently it has an efficacious effect on some.

chamomile tea and honey?

soft instrumental music and vanilla candles?

meditation?

sex?

The last one is out of the question- no one to have it with at the moment... so Mensa, your idea is out the door too.
As for the other ones... I might try them.

lilminx-

Go to a half price book store. Buy a few law books. I suggest Property or Contracts. That's a definite cure. You have no idea how many highlighting stains I have from falling asleep while reading last year.

If I really wanted to fall asleep with highlight stains on me, I could just take out some of my old Education or Psychology textbooks... lol - unfortunately, that won't work for me

i just took some nyquil, it seems to be doin the trick... i may not even make it to my room before i pass out.

 

[lilminx]

Ok- I'm going to try reading (possibly masturbating too?)... have a good night, everyone and thanks for your suggestions

 

[Mensa]

I know how you feel. I've suffered insomnia on and off for the past two years. It's been gone since around May/June.

Now it's back with a vengance.

 

[Willing and Unsure]

a cup of warm tea or coffee usually does it for me... and if i need something else.. i'll go for the coconut cookies (some fo the best ones)..


and then there's reading... and music.. and tv

 

[Mensa]

STOP!

[Angel]

You have rather large i's, Guru. I'm quite impressed.

Althought it didn't help my insomnia.

Ah well. I guess I'm going to go lay in my bed and pretend to sleep until about 9am.

-sigh-

 

[Guru]

Well, I would help you sleep if I was there. I could bonk you on the head? Or, talk about computers until I bore you to sleep!
