Do you have trouble sleeping?

hi, I also have trouble sleeping. a glass of warm milk, just so you know, doesn't work. try stretching or yoga or tai chi, and maybe some tea too. something meditate-ish. or what I do, is I read. reading always works for me, if I don't read I can't sleep. sometimes I do take pills though. melatonin pills or tongue strips. they're natural, don't worry :) so if that's your last resort, a few of those will most of the time do the trick. take it between half an hour to an hour before you want to go to bed though. I personally take four when I take them, but normal people should take like two xD but I like pills .. so .. yeah. ;D hope I was some help, aha :) peace !

Years ago I had a terrible bout of not sleeping. I actually had a tape of one of my friends band he had made and I just put on a headset and listened to it and would fall asleep. He wasnt that happy hearing I use his music to put myself to sleep but it worked lol. His band had music that was soothing and soft. I agree with the music idea.

I think you should not start taking pills in any condition just because you cannot sleep. Try something else, some other way which will give you a good relaxed sleep. Try to feel relaxed in your new house, dont make your self tensed and all. That will make you fell better. Hope this will help you out somehow. Keep mylotting

When I can't sleep its usually because my mind can't shut down. I have a millions of things that are going thru my head. I too don't like taking pills to sleep. Though I got to a point that I had to try something so I did take some tylenol PM it helped alot but I would never take it two days in a roll. They say you shouldn't be on the Computer or watching TV in your bedroom before you go to sleep. The other thing is the bedroom is not to your liking and that could be the problem in the back of your head. Not having the room complete maybe part of the problem. You should try to go to sleep at the same time each night. Don't eat anything at least two to three hours before bedtime. If you find you can't sleep don't stay in bed tossing and turning. Read, or go to another room to watch TV. I hope this helps you in someway. Another thing I have done and it has helped is Pray before going to sleep. Good Luck!

try wearing headphones or listening to music before bed, it blocks out sounds & relax the minds attention

I feel yeah about having a hard time falling asleep in a new house. P{ills are not the best way to go and yes warm milk does help but yeah its kinda gross. So what i do is metatate and it helps to relax me or throw on some suthing music thatll help me fall asleep.

No i don't have trouble sleeping,iam not seistas becoz iam busy man in the morning times i has go for my spoken english and evening i have partime work at airtel.

I have trouble sleeping as well but it's usually when I have a lot going on or a lot that I'm worried about. Once those worries go away I sleep better. I actually haven't slept in 16 hours and I have to go to class this afternoon so I don't know if I'm going to end up staying up for over 24 hours today. It's because one of my classes are bothering me. I drink warm milk before I go to bed sometimes, I didn't last night though. I used to think it was gross but I got used to it over time. I don't really have as good suggestions as the ones that others have given you. I can only say that if there's something that's bothering you and you resolve that issue you might be able to sleep better. I don't think that pills are the way to go though because people become dependent on them if they use them often. It's better if you try to take some alternative suggestions that are given here.

well first off you have to do something about your stuff make your bed as comfortable as you can organize them and give out the stuff that you dont need anymore this would lessen your stuff. make drawers or anything or utilize the space below your bed and put the stuff there just make your bedroom spotless from your things cluttered all around the room in this way you have a huge area and you will see you will find it easier to sleep. I have this problem once I really am not that particular with cleanliness its just that I had problems sleeping if things are not in their right places with this I decided to arrange my room the whole day and put compartments in it after that and being tired for doing that the whole day I feel asleep like a baby ,satisfied with the arrangement of my room. Till now I dont have problems sleeping anymore for I found the solution to my problem. hope thigns would work out with you my friend. Try to make yourself comfortable by making a lot of space in your bedroom.

Dear Angelican you might laugh at me but what you grandma told works for me ... i certainly think you can give it a try. I also have this similar problem and it is impossible for me to get a good sleep except when I am in my own bed which I have been using for years. Sometime when I go to the relatives and especially have to share a bed with my brother it is quite difficult for me to get a good sleep. I used to keep on waking up .... to say the sleep was very thin and it was quite disturbing. I discussed this with my aunt next day and she suggested me the exact same thing what you have said and somehow may be some coincidence I slept very well after having some warm milk(not hot). So I kinda started believing in it. As you know certain things can only be in your mind .... since it has worked for me the first time I kind of get a feeling that it helps. Does work for me ..... so I would say you might consider giving it a try.

I would like to give you a couple of suggestions. I have a lot trouble sleeping myself and sometimes a cup of chamomile tea helps or meditating for about 30 minutes with a relaxing music in the background could be very beneficial as well. You mentioned that all your stuff doesn't fit into your bedroom. Have you considered minimizing what you have in the room or do you need everything that's in there at all times? If you look around, you might find some of the things that you don't necessarily use very often and perhaps you can find another place to store them. I hope this helps a little. Good luck!

i have same problem, it's hard to sleep. But it's only if i had trouble at my office or if i got idea will came to my head. My wife advise me to read before sleep, and it's work it's allocate my mind to other topic in my head. make a relax feeling and u just wake up in the morning without trouble bothering your head.

maybe there are something else you don't realise for your trouble sleeping.but as you said the bed is too small for you to fit into,i think it is the key.when i was a student in a college the bed is small too.at the first year i have trouble sleeping but soon i accustomed only thinking about nothing and finding a little better pose,when you slept down that will be well.

I have always sleeping problem, sometimes i can not help myself sleeping trying various sleeping help tips but following few method its help having good sleep. Reading a good book before going to sleep or praying are helpful, if you love music then listen soft music.

Oh no! I myself have trouble sleeping since childhood. I had done a lot of things to get me into a good sleep but I couldn't. Just recently, I decided to do my exercise at night to make me refreshed from the tiring day. And Alas! I was able to sleep well at night.

Once in a great while I do....when I am overtired I think it's worse......but I actually count frontwards to 100...then backwards...until I fall asleep!

i used to have problems sleeping... i think working out really helps me to sleep. helps me to relax i guess. take away stress.. maybe take a bath or watch something really boring lol hmm i m not sure what else, cookies and milk? milk makes me sleepy.

yeah..i have trouble in sleeping for sometime if i noticed that i couldn't sleep i take a glass of coffee without sugar or if not gotta watched a horror movie or a kind of movie to make me sleep. but i don't take any sleeping pills..coz i'm afraid not to wake up again..

I have this problem one year ago,but I haven't taken any pills ,but just let it was,and the phenomenon lasted for about 1 month.If you pay much attention on it ,your press will be much heavy ,and it will last longer.

when i was in middle school,i always couldn't sleep without any sake.but i haven't any trouble after enter the college. in fact,when you can't fall asleep,you must think something constantly,which makes you more difficult fall asleep.so i suggest you don't think anything when you have trouble in sleep!make you brain have a blank!
