Do you take pills? Lie in bed? Get up and do something?

I go online. If my internet connection is slow I get really sleepy but if something interests me, I'll be up all night. I don't think pills are good for you. I don't like to waste time lying in bed trying to fall asleep.

I am a easy sleeper, I can sleep anytime and anywhere as I am also tired, basiscally lack of sleep, spending most of my night on the net. The only time that I can't sleep was that something is bothering me. I will keep thinking about it. I will doze off, and then the things that is bothering me will wake me up as my mind is thinking about it in thye sleep. The only way to stop think it was to get up and pens it down on the paper and I will go back to sleep again, usually after I had pen it down, I will doze off and only wake up when the alarm rings.

When I cannot sleep, I sign into myLot and start posting. I tried tonic that says it help to promote well sleep but it simply does not work. I have tried melonin tablets , well it just make my toungue uncomfortable (as you have to put it under your tongue before you sleep). I am still thinking............ how to solve this sleeping disorder.

I dont take sleeping pills when I cant sleep. What I usually do is read books. In that way, my eyes get tired. With that, I got a chance to sleep for about 3 hours.

I suggest you watch TV, or browse the internet, or read something until your eyes get tired. Dont take pills always, practice the normal ways first. And if you cant take it anymore and need to sleep ASAP. That's the time to consider sleeping pills as an option. Its what Im doing if I cant fall asleep.
