Lately, i'm having trouble sleeping.
not like, idk how to, cause i know its just closing ur eyes n stuff, i've done it before.
anyways, last couple days, i havent been able to sleep properly. example, i
go to bed at 12.30, lay in bed awake till 4.30 and then finally falling asleep.
just talked to kj, he told me he cant sleep either.

now this isnt such a big problem cause it was holidays, but tomorrow my school
starts again, and i do want to be a bit fit n stuff.

anybody here have any sleeptricks?

mine is usually reading before goin to sleep (i read anything; from huge books
to donald ducks -.-), but that doesn't seem to work anymore =[

Omg u fell in love with me?Secksi time will cure everything

Yeah, i can't sleep either. N Same as Cin, classes start again tomorrow

Try to empty your mind, that's what I do, that way it only takes 1~2 hours before i enter ze dreamland

You tried drinking milk ?
And listening calm music before you go to sleep

I have the same problem. If it gets past like 2 AM, I usually get up and take Tylenol PM or Nyquil to put me to sleep.

Count sheeps Or do like i do, listen very calmative music

That didn't work for me.

I have the same problem as you guys, but emptying my mind worked for me perfectly (worked because now my arm has either grown in a weird way into my should bone, or I've dislocated it without knowing it..)

So the pain is bloody killing me, leaving me sleepless..

@lana, i hate milk ;]

calm music might work.... but then again, i used to listen to music from my
discman (<- yesh, long time ago), and almost got strangled by the earplug
cable cause i fell asleep with plugs in :]

but i might give that another go tonight ;]

I got to wake up at 5am, and its 1am now. O shiets, i try the calm music now kk

See you in mornings.

That reminds me of my baby wants chocolate milk instead of milk joke

me 2, think imgonan see the doctor and get my ass some sleep tablets.

if you really are laying in bed for 2+ hours you should just go get some sleeping pills.

-Eating too much can make it difficult to get off to sleep
-Going to bed hungry can make you wake too early

So you could try taking care how much you eat ?

I had trouble sleeping for about 2 years (8th-9th grade in school). The way I overcame it was darkening my room so much that I couldnt see my hand in front of me. If the room is pitch black, your mind cant focus on anything because you cant see anything. So as a result, your mind isnt all jittery and focused, so sleep comes easier. This worked for me, I dont know if anyone else has tried it.

Another alternative to this is to excersise and do a lot of physical activity durning the day. This puts your body in a state of fatigue, so sleep is necessary.

Also, when you get ready for bed, dont worry about wether or not you can get to sleep. You will eventually fall asleep. If you fall asleep late and wake up early, avoid taking naps in midday. This recovers your energy so when you go to sleep in the evening, you have energy reserved from your nap.

Another method that I used believe it or not was to think that I was free falling in the sky or flying. For some reason, when I think about free=falling, I feel peaceful, because there is nothing there except the sky and you continuously falling. Think of the open air, the speed of your fall, and close your eyes. For some reason, its just peaceful. It puts me to sleep quickly.

i was up until 8am and slept until 4pm lul im so boned for school >.>

Eat a lot.
Work out.
No computer just before bed.


That works for me.

I drink 3 of those bitches in a month!

Bullit just gives you too much caffeine, it maks you fat and it a cold drink. If you want your caffeine a day drink coffee, or maybe Ice coffee ( dat nieuwe spul van campina en douwe egberts misschien?)

I tend to sleep like a baby when I drank a cappuchino before bed...

Tea works even better, clears your bowls, and it wakes you up ^^
