Insomnia

[DipDipDive]

:(

:(:(

Any helpful hints? Home remedies? Delicious elixirs? I have no trouble falling asleep, but I usually sleep for about 4 hours, then wake up around 2:00 or 3:00 in the morning and can't fall back to sleep. I'd say this happens at least 4 or 5 nights a week. Help plz. :(

[Auton]

i dont think anyone reading this right now is in any position to help you :(

[DipDipDive]

Oh balls. :(

It has to be morning somewhere in the world. :(

[Freebasser]

Good Morning!

I had such a great night's sleep last night (y)

[DipDipDive]

It suddenly smells like farts in here OH WAIT NEVERMIND THAT'S JUST FREEBASSER.

[Freebasser]

Sorry, it must have been the numerous baked beans in the lovely full English breakfast I ate this morning after my wonderful night's* sleep (y)



**Is becoming unsure of apostrophe*

[DipDipDive]

I don't want to know your key to a good night's rest because I have a sneaking suspicion that it has something to do with pony play and/or John Travolta's chest hair, and I'm not interested in either of those things. :(

[Freebasser]

I... um... err...


:(

[Auton]

haha pony play haha

nice, freeb! that reminds me of a comedian here named david baddiel who also suffers from insomnia. he made a comment i always remember:

"if you tell someone that you have insomnia, why do they always go..'oh really cos im always asleep as soon as my head hits the pillow? i slept through an orchestra rehearsing during an earthquake!'!
it's not like if someone told you they were blind you'd go... 'oh really cos i can see perfectly...blimey is that the pyrenees?'"

do you get enough exercise, triple dee? i hear that helps.

[Videodrome]

probably stress.

when i last got waxed, the waxer told me she had a nurse fall asleep during a bikini wax once. she thought "blimey, she must be real fucking tired".

[Knuckles]

I shouldn't have googled. :(

try encorporating flaxseed into your diet. it has numerous other helpful benfiets than helping insomnia too.

try yoga as well. no joke.

[ericlee]

i usually masturbate myself to sleep. It works just fine.

[Bob]

marijuana. You can smoke it!

like a cigarette!

Remember: Insomnia is only a problem if you are employed or have a reason to live.

[cubsfirstplace]

try melatonin. it works for me, i haven't had trouble falling asleep since i started taking it

eat lettuce. I have some over the counter pills and they are basically just a load of compressed lettuce.

Do it the cheap way and chomp on an iceberg :)

I had superbad insomnia after a medical issue in my life. I would have no trouble falling asleep. Staying asleep was the problem. Ambien / Ambien CR did not work. The doctor wanted to try something different. He prescribed 50mg of Trazadone. This was in November. It is a non addictive non narcotic pill. It has worked wonders. Other than getting up to go to the bathroom in the middle of the night. I have been sleeping great.

PM me if want more specifics on the Trazadone.

my boyfriend got me a bunch of free iron liquid supplements from his old workplace once before, and a sample of this stuff was in the pile because they have the same packaging
i popped one by accident before the gym, read ths ingrediants, saw that it was nothing too drastic and went to the gym anyways.
I barely made it there 20 minutes because this calm feeling of utter warmth and comfort was rolling over me in waves. then i went home and went to bed right away and slept like a baby. Id liken it to taken a 3 hour bath and then hitting the sack.

but yeah, other than that Id suggest trying to go for a 20 minute walk atleast 3 times a day.

and no more icecream before bed missy!

I suggest swimming after work and sex if it's an option,both work for me...I sleep very well in the winter but I struggle when things warm up...also avoiding sugars natural or otherwise after 7pm is a good idea...don't eat and go lie down...

[DipDipDive]

Thanks for all your input. I don't think pills will work for me. I've tried melatonin and ambien in the past and neither of them did anything but make me feel out of it. I know that this issue has everything to do with my shitty diet and lack of physical activity, but correcting that is much harder than just popping some pills and hoping for the best. I should also probably stop staring at my computer monitor for like 2 hours right before bed, eh? :(

Yeah that's the problem! You have to be both physically and mentally relaxed in order to sleep good, you shouldn't do anything too mind stimulating atleast an hour before bed (says the big hypocrite). Sleeping pills don't work for me either. I mean they knock my ass right out, but then it wears off and I wake up again. I miss when I used to be able to sleep naturally. :(
