Ive tried everything over the years and so far nothing has worked.. I go through periods of not sleeping (having one right now) .. The last time i slept all through the night was when my mum tucked me in.. Smile

Sleeping tabs are a big no, despite the fact they are addictice.. they dont give you a restful night, ive tried a few over the years..

Try conciously relaxing yourself in bed. start at the top and work down to your toes. You will then realise exactly how tense you are (it surprised me)

Of course do not drink te or coffee past say 7pm that will keep u awake.

Apart from that mate all i can say is join the club Smile some people are just lucky bastards and could sleep on a washing line, and some of us are destined to be insomniacs forever Smile

a couple more things herbal remedies are crap,dont bother with them. try a bit of exercise works for some people..

My advice for you is to do some hardcore workout...And like 30pushups before you go to sleep, and oh drink some yoghurt and this one too

We call it camilla tea in denmark it should help you relax and go to sleep very fast ...This is the perfect combination for me... Smile

You can try drinking warm milk, with honey if you like. That usually puts me down really fast

Fresh air. Everytime I go to Strømstad I feel this thin Swedish air. :\


So seriously, eat healthy do some workout... don't think about sleeping while you are in bed. Also seems to be harder to sleep when you have lots of stuff to think about. Or if something have happend. I had a period (about a week) i didn't sleep much. Just because I was waiting to fall in sleep. Just doesn't work that way. Close your eyes and think about The Ukrainian flag. Works for me evey time.

Get your emotions sorted. They're probably fucked up. Try and release as much aggression as possible whilst working-out. You'll probably build it back up in no time.

I had this same problem last night. I don't feel tired at all when the night comes. Finally, four hours before my scheduled re-activation time, I went to bed, only to toss and turn for 3 hours, and finally getting less than an hour of sleep before going up.

After you go up like that, everything seems weird somehow. Your brain is on the fritz, even if you can talk walk and even think, it feels like it's not you who's doing it. As in fight-club, everything is a copy of a copy - washed out, and not genuine. After I get home from work, I slept for 2 hours, only to wake up with a headache where my boner used to be.

My take is that some people are night-people, and some are day-people. The world is made for the latter, so if you get a normal job, your are likely to end up hating your life and feeling like a zombie. And there are no real solutions to this either, because it's probably not a medical issue, but rather a product of your upbringing and a bunch of external factors. No matter how many times I tried to change myself, go to bed early for example; even if i could fall asleep, I end up being awake longer than I intended. When I let myself go, however, then I usually go to bed at about 5-6(am) and wake up at about 13-14... That's perfectly normal 8 hours, they are just at the wrong place at the wrong time.

This works for me everytime. However, if your mind is racing can be hard to pull off.

Breath in through your nose then out through your mouth, think about nothing if you can't do that think about how dark it is with your eyes closed, think about the darkness, make sure not to stray to far from that. Keep the breathing pattern the same. After about 15-20 minutes of that i can almost always fall asleep. It may take you longer but once you perfect it, you can always sleep. I had trouble with insomnia for a long time, this fixed it for me.

Good luck.

a lavender oil bath is basically a bath with a few drops of lavender oil added to the water.

lavender oil aids sleep and relaxation, you could probably just put a drop on your pillow to

I got the same problem. I've got nothing to do until I enlist (which will be happening in a few months) and I don't have any daily job. So I find myself going to bed at 4 am and waking up at 2pm - No fun. I like it when I got the whole day for me.
