I can't sleep

I do experience that sometimes, dfolin. Sometimes, i would wake up to pee. And when i go back to bed, i cannot sleep anymore. So sometimes, i would get the bible in the lampshade table beside me and read. Or at times, i would play a game in my cellphone. And sometimes, i pray the rosary and after that i feel sleepy already.

It happens to me at times.Especially if i am too pressurized or excited about things.Its tough to get sleep during the time and as such i too spend time on things online.I do spend time online till i find enough sleepiness to go to bed.I think my stressful life is one of the reasons for sleeping late at times.Sometimes, i spend time listening to songs and clear things from mind.Its hard to find sleep when there are lot of things going through your mind or stressed with many things.I too also become forgetful of things when too many things are happening in life.Even now, my sleeping pattern is greatly affected and i find it very difficult to wake up early in the morning.May be i can put some more efforts and get good results in making my sleep better.I find spending time in front of internet and computer helps us to kill time in the most best and relaxing way possible.It also helps in just helping to soothe things in mind and perhaps for body.May be i should do something to reduce my stress and look at things positively.Good to know you do things late night if needed without disturbing others.So thoughtful of you.Thanks!

Hi df! It is not good that you do not get a sound sleep and you would awake in the middle of the night and you just can not get back to sleep. I feel sitting on computer is not a good idea. Working on computer will completely take away your sleep. Your brain will start working and you just can not feel sleepy if you are working on a computer. You could better read some magazine or a book or could listen to some soft music (of course using headphones) to get back to sleep.

yea,i've had chronic insomnia all my life. i usually get up and find something to do.lying there does me no good,might as well get something done until i finally start crashing. makes it a pain with jobs tho.often by the time i'm sleepy it's time to go to work.

Whenever this happens to me, I just go read twitter or facebook or something using my smartphone (still in bed) until I fall asleep. They do say that you should not force your mind to sleep but rather just motivate it to be asleep again. Usually, I fall asleep again for around 15 minutes after. Hmmm.. I don't have problems sleeping so far. Have a great mylot experience and hoping for better sleep soon!

There are a few rules that someone once told me when it comes to having trouble sleeping 1. If you've been laying in bed for more than an hour without falling asleep, get up and do something else. 2. Don't exercise or consume caffeine for the last few hours you are awake. 3. Don't watch tv or use the computer to help you fall asleep. It has to do with the lighting of the screens that will keep you up. I would suggest reading a book. That usually helps me

You should not just lay in bed, but you also should not do computer or TV because the bright lights stimulate your pineal gland and will cause you to continue to wake at that time lots of nights. I do this occasionally, and it is a symptom of anxiety, and you have enough going on in your life I can understand being anxious. Best thing to do is to get comfy and read.

I am not sure if I have experienced this. I have this talent in sleeping. I can almost sleep if I will to anytime, anywhere. But there were times before when I had insomnia. I really couldn't have a good sleep. So I went to the doctor and she prescribed me some medicine. After that, I could really sleep well on time. Probably you have to go see a doctor. They will know what to do so that won't happen to you again and again. That would be very unhealthy to your body if that continues. So better before it takes its toll on you.

I used to have problems sleeping,and was getting tired of it!Then I discovered Verbena,a herb,and every night before going to bed,I boil a cup a water and pour it over some leaves,let it steep for 15 minutes,and drink it.Did not have a sleepless night since.Maybe you should try it.

I don't wake a lot in the night to the point where I can't get back to sleep. I do get up in the middle of the night and a lot of the time it's because of my 5 month old son needs to be feed and it only is normally once or twice not as bad as it was with my daughter. Some times she wakes in the middle of the night can't sleep. On rare times I'll wake and can't sleep at all or can't fall a sleep period and those are the night's when I do some extra work online as best as I can.

it happens to me once in a while.. and if this happens to me i usually listen to music.. or play in my tablet and it really works for me.. but if this happens to you often why not try to eat foods that can make us sleep like almonds,cashews,spinach which is high in magnesium,, you can also try these foods which is rich in vitamin b complex such as green leafy vegetables,nuts and legumes or try to take supplements of taurine, vitamin b6, and magnesium,.. hope this helps..

Sometimes i do particularly when i am under so much stress from my work. I know this does no good to my health but just can not help thinking of the schedule or loads of work that i need to do tomorrow. Lucky thing for me is this just happens at times but not so often, i hope i do not get insomnia
