Waking up at 2 o'clock in the morning...

Hello aseretdd, Quite often I will wake up in the middle of the night and can't get back to sleep after that. If I am not too lazy, I will boil water and make a cup of hot drink. I will either surf the internet or just watch movies or maybe read a book or magazine. Like you, I always fall asleep just one or two hours before my alarm wakes me up again.

I have been so stressted lately.. I fall asleep watching tv with my kdis... then wake up and go back to sleep at about 10-11... then I can gaurnatee I will be awake sometime between 3-330 am... not for long... but I wake up... do something... usually start another movie and fall back to sleep!

Not very common to me since I when I will start to close my eyes, I will really sleep and sleep and sleep! hahahha..that true, I have even a hard time watching TV and finishing the movie without napping in between! But, if ever, It will happen to me, I will just do blogging a lot... well, its good for you since you were able to finish all your laundry..you were very productive as early as that...

I usually try hard to get back to sleep if the next day is a working day. If the next day is not a working day, then I would definitely get up and get online, do some work and respond to some discussions in mylot. Then like at 4/5am, I usually could go back to sleep without feeling time is wasted with my tissing and tossing in bed.

Many wife often suffer this in the midnight. Once she wake up, she is hard to get back to sleep. In the morning, I see her black eyepit, I feel very sad. But I don't know how to help her. What a pity!

well seriously. im still up at 2 am. but on weekends, it happens to me too. but it only happens when i sleep at 7 pm . What do i do? i go outside and have a walk. its cool, fresh and clean. relax a bit and have a little chit chat with the people outside. ( yes theyre all up at 2 am). Then i would go online, talk to friends , visit my friendster, myspace , multiply and facebook. then when my eyes starts to hurt, i would go lay down in the bed, read sweet messages from my girl, try to sleep again. then boom. snoring already. try not to drink to much water at night, and put room temperature a little colder :)

Well, if for some choice I do wake up at 2 a.m. it would usually be because I went to sleep really early the night before, and then I wake up not able to fall back to sleep. But occassionally I have nights as well where I toss and turn all night, and then if I have to get up, I usually find myself coming back to my Computer and a lot of times I also end up posting here in myLot or checking my Email depending on how long I feel I will be up.

I will go take a book into the bath and try and relax myself it usually works.

i pretty much do the same thing you did..find something,anything to do be it mylot,housework,whatever.the worst for me is when i wake up like that on a work day,and i really could use the sleep instead.

That really happen to me at the same day and at the same time! haha. sounds weird but I think it is normal to feel that way. Sometimes, you can't sleep even if you are not thinking of anytime. Sometimes, you just feel like it is so difficult to sleep without any reason or the reason is, what time can you sleep since you woke up at the wrong time. But you waking up in that time, and do all your laundry stuff is worth it, unlike me, woke up, but just lied on bed and waiting to fall asleep again. Lazy me! Keep posting, Mickey

normally i go to bed around midnite, if by chance i get up at 2 .... firstly i will get something to eat or drink .. then check what on the tv .... if there is nothing much ... get online ... find some good movie to download, chat a lil and hopefully feel sleepy again

2 am is when i go to bed everynight..and i do not wake up until the morning so i do not have these expeirence..sometiems i cant fall asleep tho, usualy because of a bad headache..

Why don't you do some sports? When i am very tired i could fall to sleep quickly.

I've woke up at 4 o'clock in the morning many times, In that case I'll try to return to sleep but if I fail to fall asleep I just stay up(watching TV, eating or something else)until I start my day at 6 O'clock. If I wake up in hours like 2 O'clock in the morning I'll do everything to fall asleep so in the next morning I wouldn't feel totaly tired all morning...

i generally do not wake up at that moment. still it may be someday. i just toss on bed and try to fall asleep. i think you utilised the time inm very productive way. i think i should also do something worth doing.

When I wake up around 2AM what I do depends on how wide awake I feel. If I'm nervous mind going, too much awake, I'll do stuff like laundry, boring stuff usually like straightening out drawers trying to bore myself to sleep. If I'm tired, but can't sleep, I'll watch TV or read until I know I can go back to sleep. I'm also really bad about starting to snack away as soon as I get up. How long did the baby let you sleep - not long enough probably?

i hate it when i wake up early in the morning and can not get back to sleep.it does not happen often,thank goodness.if it does happen i tend to either get up for a while and go on the computer or i read until i feel tired again.i have learnt not to just lie there and hope sleep comes,because all i do is toss and turn and it makes it worse.cheers sue

I struggle to go back to sleep. this is such a tiering experience. I never seem to be able to go back to sleep until 5 O'Clock there abouts when I should be looking to get up especially when i used to work. Whenever this happens I end up feeling like a wreck for the rest of the day. I learnt to combat that by not going to bed until I am very tierd. This is usually very late but its the best I cope with not waking up in the wee hours of the morning. See. Your not alone. (lol)

next time you wake up in the morning... pray to the god, ask for His guidance to right path.. sounds so naive, but that is the best way to do i think..

I usually can not go to sleep till 12 at night these days, sometimes I am still awake at 2 o'clock. At that time I am just lying on my bed, closing my eyes, and thinking those things happened in the daytime. I know it is a very hard time when you become insomnia. Why not take it a chance which god give you thinking about your life? Don't be nervous about it. If you can not rest at time, you may find another time to go to sleep. Good luck to you.
