Do you get hot in bed? Our flat is so warm from the flats below that most of the year I just have a sheet and blanket. A duvet is too much. So if I get over hot, I have the most awful nightmares. Sometimes frightening, sometimes plain stupid.

A variation on a trick that I recommend insecure poeple trying, is to go to bed, snuggle down and keep saying, " I'm an Apple. A happy Apple, all snug and cosy, and tomorrow I'm going to be a happier Apple!" The power of your mind is amazing, if you can teach yourself to have positive thoughts. Start practicing by saying it out loud!

Don't eat or drink anything before bedtime. Also clear your mind and don't think about stuff when your trying to get sleep.

LOL I SLEEP AT 4 A. M AND WAKE UP AT 1 P. M I'M SUCH A LOSER.
Try reading, drinking some hot tea (chamomile is the best), and setting the room to a colder temperature (people sleep better at cooler temps.). Do not eat sooner than 3 hours before bed and try not to go on electronics sooner than 2 hours.

Stay awake for the whole day or sleep a little, you're going to feel like a zombie for the day but it's worth it at the end haha

No eating in the last hour before going to sleep... eating makes the digestion active and that keeps the body alert. Especally sweet food gives you a high energy level, that would make the problem worse :-(
Also, don't look at "a good movie" until just before you go to sleep. You'll be focused on the movie and alert, feeling it hard to get asleep.
Instead, read a book in the last half hour or so before bed time. And if you're not sleepy yet, extend the reading a little.
Also, if you wake up nervously at night, leave your bed for 15 minutes, read a few pages and than go back to bed. Better chance you'll sleep than staying in bed feeling emotional.
Enjoy the nights :D

Start by depriving your self of day time sleep. Eat a good meal around 6 to 7 pm and in my case I will take 2 Advil PM tablets around 8:00 PM by 10:00 I'm relaxed and usually sleep like a baby. I use the Advil because other brands let me cranky the next morning ; avoid Tylenol PM as any Dr will warn against potential liver damage from prolonged use

Try lighting a lavender scented candle about an hour before bed. You can also get lavender flavoured herbal tea.

I read it on the internet when my sleeping pattern went off the track, and it worked for me!

OrangeBoy · Answer

Yeah. One very important tip.

Never watch movies, tv, not even use your pc or cellphone in a dark room.
Avoid any kind of screen, except if all the place have good light.

Screens in the dark make your brain too much awaken.

Do the wind down thing... no TV, grab a book and read something it will wind you down slowly and make your eyes sleepy.

Put lavender or vanilla essense on or under your pillow, the nice smell helps you relax and sleep

You can get stuff on prescription but to be honest it does more harm than good. Spend an hour or so off the internet, reading or watching TV before bedtime, just to unwind. Try to always go to bed at the same time, and set your alarm for the same time every morning.

Some say...  That lettuce tea does the deal...  Others say that you better take some xanax All we know is: masturbate and you'll sleep like a baby :P

If you're used to going to bed at 7 am just don't sleep one night. You'll reset your sleep schedule to about 10 pm. Might need to take melatonin to maintain it.
