Can't fall asleep.

[Tereya]

I wonder if anyone here has sleeping problems. Sometimes I can't fall asleep and I tend to wake up in the middle of the night sometimes and I can't go back to sleep unless I lay down on the couch and watch t.v., and then I fall asleep in like 2 minutes. This happens to me a lot and I wanted to know if anyone had the same problem because sometimes I'll wake up like 4 times a night and it happens quite frequently for me so I was wondering if anyone could help.

[legan]

All I can say is... welcome to my World.

[Tereya]

^___^ heh :D

[legan]

Do you have MSN or anything?

[Tereya]

AIM, why? :0

[Maxwell]

To chat to you? Isn't obvious? :p

[Tereya]

lol it is but we are already chatting on the forums are we not?

[legan]

Yeah I was just wondering cos I'm gonna collapse asleep soon.

[Tereya]

oh lol, chat to stay up XD much faster than forums? :P lol or am I just saying stupid stuff that's not at all related to that or w/e, lol do u want my s/n?

[its fang]

for the past 2 nights i haven't been able to sleep well either. two nights ago i think it was the medicine i took that said "non drowsinesS" but it made me not feel tired but i knew i needed to sleep. i would wake up atleast 7 times through the night and just sit there and like stare at something. but last night.... i had stomach ache. would lie down feel fine wake up 10 min later when i'm about to go into a good dream i have to go relieve my self. and this kept happening like 4 times literally. felt so bad and no sleep.

[Tereya]

:< err that's bad, I don't like waking up feeling sick either. That's sorta what it started out like for me, now it just keeps happening. It's been what...a month since it started like this for me?

[legan]

oh lol, chat to stay up XD much faster than forums? :P lol or am I just saying stupid stuff that's not at all related to that or w/e, lol do u want my s/n?


that would be cool.

[Maxwell]

Chatting on a forum can be seen as spam to some people... so yeah. :\

[SasuNaru]

I never sleep, but that is because I am always working. If I can't fall asleep at all I find that counting the naked bouncing women in my bed helps. 0, 0, 0, 0...

lolz, what kind of a job do u have

Hmm I wonder if me having trouble sleeping has to do with my diabetes :< I hope nothings happening to me.

[Tereya]

or is it not a job but just like working on something

Saying chatting would'nt be right because that's saying chatting in general. It all depends what your chatting about.

[Maxwell]

Off-topic, in general.

[EroKage]

hmm..i heard drinking milk makes you sleepy cause there is something in milk whcih relaxes you and lets you fall asleep.

[Sayo]

lol i just thought last 2 weekends, i didnt sleep at all!!! :p

[Wave]

heh, fixed my sleeping problem by turning on my humidifier. fell asleep right away after that for some reason 2 weeks ago :S

[Amu]

You should never force yourself to sleep. Sleep only when you're tired.

dude when im goin to bed like 4 o clock in the morning... do u expect me to run down the stairs at 8 o clock and whoppa cycle of to school,..... no way when im goin late to bed or dont sleep i sleep till morning/afternoon

[Aruka]

that happened to me like for the past few days, it's really difficult.

If you sleep late one day and weak early the next, then the next night you will sleep earlyish, and if you wake early the next day, you've got yourself. Just leave your body to do what ever, and it will rectify itself.

[Uchicha Itachi]

Maybe that's because you are always sleeping late, you got insomnia.. Try sleeping earlier or bang you head on the wall so that you can sleep. :-p

[secret7]

Yes bang your head in the wall seems good suggestion according to a Ph.d doctor bang your head on the wall can make you forever sleep...or try others....sleep at the bathtub or drink gallons of milk.I'm sure you'll forever sleeping and not wake up anymore...;

[Ketsueki]

I have some sleep problems too. I just can't sleep most of the time, some night's I'm fine, but others it's a realy bitch, because whenever I get tired my body twitch's, sometimes that twitch is so violent it wakes me up. Other time's I'll just lay there, absolutly tired, can barely keep my eyes open, but then I just lay there with my eyes closed.

I usually get about 4-5 hours sleep a night, then crash out on a saturday and sleep for about 10 hours.

[nightdevil]

i'm nocturnal.

you can even drink beer and alchoholic drinks to make you sleep, oh use sleeping pills. :p

[secret7]

I have problem too...i always sleepping..in the class.Never miss one day in school sleep at the desk and ended up punished by teachers...

[kanopon]

I fall asleep at 1:00am.
I try to sleep but I can't!
If I wake up early I sleep at 12:00 midnight or 12:30.
I've always been this way for some reason.
I get in trouble for falling asleep in class. :o

[Sayo]

when i have school i go 2 bed like 12 o clock or something....
in the weekend,... i dont sleep :D

[kanopon]

I have problem too...i always sleepping..in the class.Never miss one day in school sleep at the desk and ended up punished by teachers...
Wow! You're secret7? Matti-sensei told me about you! We're both on the
same team at the shadow-nin fc!!!!
-oh and if anyone decides to join say that I reccomended you okay? :D

[Aeries]

I have that problem aswell. It takes me a long time to fall asleep, from 30-60 minutes, and I wake up around 3 times usually. It's always around the same, too. 12, 3, and 4. I've tried warm milk, warm milk with honey, etc, but that didn't work and only made me sick. Sleeping pills work rather well, but take awhile to go into affect, and I don't recomend relying on them.
It sucks, but I find that I fall asleep the fastest by crying myself to sleep.
You can always just keep the TV on in your room, or sleep where there is a TV. Try listening to music, aswell.

[Tereya]

About milk, that's what my mom told me. ^_^ I have yet to try it :P. Maybe Iwill today.

Humidifier(or w/e it's called), ahh well I've never tried that before. :P that seems like a good thing for ppl with asthma problems. My bro used to use one of htose when he was lil.

About not going to sleep when you feel sleep. I sort of agree with that. I'll do something until I'm sleepy and that works a lot but my bro and mom hate it when I stay up and I'll get grounded if I do it too much. Watching tv to sleep works for me but this month the electricity bill zoomed up and they told me TO STOP :<. Plus if I'm not tired and if I stay up and go on the comp or play a video game then I'll never be sleepy until I stop XD.

Sleeping earlier does not work for me.
1) I can't get to sleep.
2)I'll wake up EARLLLLLLY in the morning if I do happen to fall asleep and then I won't know what to do XD
3) :< that's all the time I have to do fun stuff

lol sometimes its wierd, I'll go to sleep late and wake up early, but I heard that's actually a sign of not getting enough sleep, not having enough. And i heard oversleeping means that you got too much sleep, I had no idea there was something such as too much sleep.

Dangit I dunno wtf is wrong but sometimes when I switch from usually sleeping on the couch to sleeping on a minibed on the floor to a real bed I get these really painful leg cramps like 7 times a night. >< OWWWW!

About spending and hour trying to go to sleep, OMGOSH that happens to me alot. I'll spend like 3-5 hours trying to get to sleep. I'm serious, that's most of my sleep time anyways. It really pisses me off.

I cry myself to sleep sometimes too. But that is only when I cry, which I usually don't unless I'm sad. :l

Listening to music...I need to try that, I think that'll defenitily work for me. I'll use my bros mp3 player. XD thankies u ppls...but still if it doesn't work :mad: ...<<not mad at u mad at not being able 2 sleep

:p Sometimes I'll pray to god for rest and instantly fall asleep :p

[lemonlime]

It usualy takes me an hour to go to sleep in bed. I dont think I've ever fallen asleep in front of the tv. When I get to sleep I usualy wake up and roll around for awhile til' I fall asleep again, that happens like three times during the night. I sit inside all day and don't get much exersize, so when I actualy get outside and run around durring the day I sleep easy at night. But... NY-QUIL IS FUCKING EVIL!!! For me that SHIT makes it harder to sleep. One day I took some and slept a total of about 1 hour during the night. C:=

[Jh1stgen]

Reason for you can't sleep:
-stress
-thinking too much
-excitment

The way i solve it ... is wearing my body out. Such, take a nice jog outside until you can't breathe or whatever...

[Tereya]

lol I stay in rather than excersing, too. Perhaps that's why; I need to use all my energy if I want to go to sleep and regain it. XD

[N4rut0]

You should just go to bed dude sometimes its just you thinking you can't sleep but when you go to bed you soon fall asleep...

[Tereya]

lol but I do go to bed and that's when I can't sleep.

[legan]

I just have the whole insominia thing.

[wingsofevil]

this past summer i had a hard time going to sleep. i was always up throughout the whole night and i would sleep though the whole day and then stay up at night. i was basically an insomniac through out the whole summer.

[korican04]

Just read a text book. At least you'll learn while you zonk out. And if you don't fall asleep at least you'll know something while being tired. That's what i do if i had too much caffene cause i was doing work.

[Tereya]

lol that would surely work !!! XD the thing is I wouldn't want to fall asleep sitting down or using my text book as a pillow, but hey if I'll get to sleep then I'll try it XD

[GreenZhadow]

lucky u i cant fall asleep when i want too its just impossible

[legan]

Tereya AIM?

And I sleep when I sleep, Whenever that might be.

[Tereya]

Shayori Tutsuo

:P didn't I tell u b4. I might not log on for a while though

[Lavinia]

If you have that much trouble sleeping just take over-the-counter sleeping pills. Works for me. Or get a Dr. to give you some Ambien. Ambien works awesome! Its great for insomnia and for the whole waking up in the middle of the night thing.

[Hinatalovesme]

for me it varies on how I feel...once in a while I pull an all nighter. lately i've been waking up late lately >_> like at around 7:16ish...least I make it to school on time though lol

[legan]

No I ment log on v_v

[Aruka]

sleeping is just one of my problems, i have this terrible headache; i lack sleep 'coz of chatting 'til midnight. -_-

[Lady Yanami]

I do I do *raises hand*
Have most of my life. Actually, it's so bad, that I normally have to pass out to get decent sleep. I usually don't "fall" asleep per se until somewhere between 6-8 am.
That's when my body gives out and my mind shuts down. Usually not before that. It's a reall pain in the butt.

[Hinatalovesme]

my friend once said that "SLEEP IS FOR THE WEAK" I agree on him XD but the thing is....if you really wanna go out and pull all nighters...lan parties are definately the place to go to XD

[Sayo]

the ultimate tip 4 baaaaad sleepers: COUNT SHEEP!!!!!!!:D

[SabakuKyuu]

take children's nyquil. that's right, i said CHILDREN'S nyquil. not the adult nyquil

[N4rut0]

Have a scalding hot shower , that ALWAYS gets me sleepy!!!

[Hinatalovesme]

Have a scalding hot shower , that ALWAYS gets me sleepy!!!

so what happens if you fall and slip in the shower? ;D

[SabakuKyuu]

so what happens if you fall and slip in the shower? ;D

i guess you shouldn't move alot in a shower without the grippy things on the floor of the shower then (especially if you dance in the shower :D)

[Hinatalovesme]

i guess you shouldn't move alot in a shower without the grippy things on the floor of the shower then (especially if you dance in the shower :D)

no wonder why that never works for me XD so much for singing in the shower lol

[N4rut0]

I would never dance in the shower !!!! what if you slip and grab the shower curtain and it rips THEN some one comes in and sees the nakedness, and the wreakage...not 2 things that mix good

[Hayabusa]

It takes me 1 - 2 hours to get to sleep, i also wake up alot which sux so basicly i hardly sleep at night. :(

[blue_duck]

the ultimate tip 4 baaaaad sleepers: COUNT SHEEP!!!!!!!:D

That's a lie! It doesn't work!!

[ninamori]

Counting sheep actually makes it harder to fall asleep.

I never had trouble sleeping because my bed was so warm and comfy and-*falls asleep*

[Baluskavitch]

I get no more than 5 hours of sleep every weeknight (Start homewrok at midnight....try to sleep when I'm finished...), and no more than8.5 on a weekend. It runs in the family; four of me relatives have fallen asleep at the wheel, one died in the resulting accident.
If I get virtually no sleep on a Sunday night, I actually feel somewhat awake and alert on Monday....if I keep that up until Friday I can hardly stand...
Sugar makes me tired. I'm usually so exausted I only feel the effects of the "low" produced after eating it. The only thing that helps is coffee; the stronger it is the more classes I can stand. However, caffeine does nothing for muscular energy, which is why I hate gym...
Do NOT try sleeping pills. They say "allow a good 8 hours for sleep", but I took one at SEVEN PM....At six in the morning I literally COULD NOT get out of bed. Also, if they DO work, you could become dependant on them. So they're only really useful for people who are planning to kill themselves.
I have also found that it is IMPOSSIBLE for me to sleep unless I have my fan on....even in the middle of winter.
I believe this is causing extreme stress on my body. Besides being prone to forgetfulness, I am subject to back aches, chest pains, and the occasional "popping" sensation along the path of the jugular/carotid veins/arteries. I feel as if I'm 50 years older than I am.
I haven't felt rested (or been able to keep my hand steady for that matter) for the past four years.

edit-Bottom line: If you value your health, FIND a method to get to sleep, no matter how hard it is-ESPECIALLY if you drive.

[Daz_Naruto]

i got to bed around 3ish and have to get up aroun 9, some night i only get 4 hrs sleep, i can function but its starting to catch up with me!

[Jaggan]

I just became an insomniac one week ago -_- I'm sorta sick lately...I'm dealing with the flu for about 3 weeks now...i'm extremely tired...yesterday my legs refused to move ...and I can't sleep. I'm half dead now. Longing for some sleep...

[ahheng21]

u guys can eat alot before u sleep. a full stomach will allow easy sleep. i heard drink milk works too :)

[Sayo]

u should take medicin :/

[Jaggan]

Doc doesn't know what's wrong with me. Thought it was Pfeiffer...but the bloodtest didn't show. He doesn't wanna give me medecin, cuz he doesn't know whats wrong. Said i should take it easy the next few weeks...but that isn't gonna do me any good -_-

[Sayo]

Doc doesn't know what's wrong with me. Thought it was Pfeiffer
yes i was thinking of that 2 but if the test doesnt shows it :/

[Jaggan]

Yeah...and nothing is showing for bloodinfection and stuff.... It really sucks..cuz i have such a lack of energy. After 2 hours of college I'm exhausted.... So i go home to sleep..but then i can't sleep..it really sucks.

[Freelancer_]

OK
1. this topic is kinda old im sure he got some sleep by now.
2. you cant go to freaking sleep becuase you here!
3. go to you bed and close you freaking eyes you retard!

I hate these types of topics.

[wingsofevil]

lol freelancer is right about being on the forum so since your on the forum you cant get to sleep but i've been tired lately as well. i get 6-7 hours of sleep and i'm still tired but if i sleep for 9-11 hours than i'm fine. i wonder whats wrong with me?

[kamashi666]

my sleeping pattern is wack. i go to sleep at random times and wake up at random times. I can go a week without sleep or i can sleep for 2 days strait (my current sleeping record).

[Scar]

I can't sleep ,however, i know why
