Cannot sleep!

alex291190 · 3 May 09, 05:49

Argh!

Just spent pretty much the whole night tossing and turning in my covers! , i have pretty much given up on sleep tonight, but it has been happening more and more recently. I (attempt to) sleep in pretty much total darkness, ..with almost no audible sound at all, on a matress thats pretty comfy.... I just dont know what the problem is. .. anyone?

in my experience, i'd say you have something unresolved on your mind

The low frequency hum of a new halogen lamps power-supply kept me away
from sleeping once.
So i get a switch to shut down all electric stuff in my bedroom when i want to sleep.

A drop or two of my fav Whiskey usually does the trick for me

MadNitroBooster · 3 May 09, 09:34

listen music from mp3 player and keeping eyes closed works for me if I'm not tired.

blow up a baloon until it bursts

plenty of exercise does it for me, if i dont then i dont sleep either, i couldnt be sat in front of a pc 24/7

Run 30 min or more during the day.

Wan... errr.. Wankler rotary engines are cool

reading always puts me to sleep. Either that or listen to something really boring like radio 4.

CX650 · 3 May 09, 20:24

I watch Coronation Street.

Puts me to sleep before the ad break.

~~Roush9~~ · 3 May 09, 20:50

Have some se...uhhh....turkey. I hear that puts people to sleep, or get some sleeping pills?

dartguy · 3 May 09, 21:08

Watch NASCAR.

Viper has the right (or left, or both if you've a tree trunk) idea

You suffer from CX650 syndrome. Refer to your doctor for more information.

Don't have a person on your mind, do you?

same for me, but making some sport in the evenin' can be a good solution as well... every thing depends on your health choice... but viper's solution could be helpfull...

Jay Nortsunder · 4 May 09, 03:16

I had troubles to put myself to sleep if it was too silent. When I was younger, I always but some music on the background, in it did the trick.
Now springtime I have trouble to not put myself to sleep, thanks to my allergies and antihistamine. Yesterday too a nap from six to seven, and before nine, I was sleeping like a baby in my bed.

ALEXZANDER · 4 May 09, 12:05

Watch something that is as slow as cement drying, like golf or baseball. you will be to sleep in no time.

pribeiro · 4 May 09, 17:40

....you can try to see all last year F1 season races also....

I hope you sort it out.

he already said he was doin that all night tossing and turning!

need to knock it off alex and let yourself sleep!

all those girlies on your cam are'nt helping!
no seriously tho, yeah alex i always have my room fan on, i like the whirring noise and i have trouble sleeping without some kinda low noise, maybe you wanna try that, maybe its just too quiet and serene if that makes any sense... failing that i could send you some of my replays to show you what fast really is, at least you'd be occupying you're time productively!

LittleZippyUK · 5 May 09, 14:12

Funny stuff guys.

Try do something relaxing before going to bed, like watching tv. Staying on the computer before bed keeps you awake.

I get into bed and watch tv, normally relaxes me. But when it doesn't i listen to some music from my vast collection on my mp3 player. Normally does the trick.

Jack_NL · 5 May 09, 14:56

take the little Alex and shake him till he pukes, best method when not cant sleep or cold lol
(oh was already mentioned ; )
