What do you think about when you cant sleep.

lately, all i can think about is work work work. that is why i try to tire up myself enough to make me fall asleep at once.

When i cant sleep in night then i go in my living room and then i watch tv until i get sleep.

When I cant sleep, i invariably start thinking about the things which are disturbing me , like incomplete events, or argumentative discussions that I have got into. I try to resolve these discussions in mind. When I think that I have reached that mentally, I then tend to relax and get to sleep.

Yes everybody starts thinking about what happend in the day, in the past and what will happen in the future. But if you start thinking all those things you get anxious which will further prolong your sleeplessness. So I try not to think anythink when i dont get sleep.

Hi, when I can't sleep, I try not to think. The more I think, the more I cannot sleep. So I'll read a book until I'm tired.

i cant sleep right now. its 247am and i feel like i will never fall asleep. usually when i cant sleep i think about what i did throughtout the day. i also fantisize. like how it would be if i went to Cuba or what i could be doing instead of laying in my bed awake. i think about a lot of things while im awake. i think due to my late nights ive become more paranoid because i do think about a lot. the good and the bad. i mean, what else is there to do when you cant go to sleep? nothing!

ugh, i have the "brain just wont shut up" syndrome when im trying to fall asleep! i can lay there for a couple of hours trying to not think! and its everything, everything goes thru my mind, words to songs, the grocery list and what i need to add to it, what i need to make for dinner the next day, what i could do differently about the dinner i made that night, how i could have better explained a question that my 12yr old had..who knows how long ago (from days to weeks!) things that happened 10 years ago; what i might have done differently to make things come out better than they did...the list just goes on and on!

I just think of my house hold chores the next morning. What will I do the next month... I want to get another stable job and can be able to travel around the world. I used to think of the things I want to do before sleeping. Maybe 30 minutes after I will fall asleep thinking of those things alone in my room.

hi friend I had this kind of experience before in life.IF i have met some troubled things,I will not get asleep indeed.I think I like to think more about life.I will think about the happened thing with my families,friend,etc.When i think that,it is hard to me to sleep again,unless i don't know when i am sleeping...strange thing..LOL. Good luck
