When I can't sleep I .......

Same here friend I also turn my computer on and start playing games but sometimes I also work out on maths questions as maths is my favourite subject. When I start doing these things generally I don't get sleep for long time.

i'm learning at math, the best way to sleep:)

I always read before I go to sleep. I read my bible first then I read a chapter of a book I am reading. I also play games online myself

Sometimes I get up and write. I'm always complaining that my job doesn't leave me enough time for writing, so I figure why not take advantage of my insomnia rather than lay in bed tossing and turning and staring at the alarm clock, getting all anxious because I know I have to get up in a few hours and I haven't slept yet. When I'm not in a writing mood, I usually flip the channels and try to find something on TV that will be interesting enough that it'll keep me from stewing in my insomnia, but not so interesting that it keeps me up even longer! If your husband or partner is awake too, a bit of lovin' is always a good cure for insomnia too : ).

I am the same when i can't sleep i go to mylot and read some discussions but, if i dont find interesting topics i play games as well..I am a night person i think i got used to sleep late because when i was still working on board cruise ships my shift always do the closing.I think that is a routine everyday for me untill now even though i don't work.I can never go to bed early .Thanks...

There is an old way to get sleepy - imagine you're drawing figure "8" with your eyes closed of course. At first you imagine this figure a small one, then it gets bigger and bigger and then smaller and smaller. If you're already sleepy enough, this should help. When it doesn't help me, I just go to my computer and spend time in the Internet until I feel tired and sleepy. :)

I do all that I can during the day so that going to bed is such a good thing. Physically I do enough to justify what I eat and then mentally I do enough that sometimes I don't even wish to read when I go to bed. I like to sleep since often I dream. I know that if it seems like I just laid down that I am needing more rest since I slept pretty hard. I have a radio that I can listen to if indeed I wake in the night. I keep my eyes closed and lay as still as I can so that my eyes and body can rest and repair. Good luck with this.

I also play or watch TV untill I start to feel tired . . . then , if I really have to sleep I try to stay still a couple of minutes till I fall asleep . . . it works some time :D

I do the very same things - I'll either sit in front of the computer or pick up a book until I start to feel sleepy. Only problem with that is that I start to get interested in what I'm doing, so I generally don't get sleepy in a hurry!
