What do you do when you can’t sleep?

Question

Dinosaursandanime65 · Accepted Answer

Think of ways to expand the story of Yvridio Vaseilio. Talk to myself, imagine myself talking to things that are bothering ( for instance, me calling a chair a bitch cuz I hit my foot on it). Replay songs, themes and musicals in my mind so well I can still hear them. Listen to ASMR and cuddle. Make new bars. (My apologies if this making you uncomfortable, but ma dik is saying that you are very fakable).

I usually just toss and turn. I have a problem shutting down my brain. I'll be exhausted and falling asleep but as soon as I put my head on the pillow my mind starts thinking about random things.

U ask pretty good questions but hm. Back then I’d jus be on my phone playing games or texting my boyfriend till I sleep. But like now I watch videos that put me to sleep for example I’m rlly interested in nature and science videos but I guess it’s boring in a way but it makes me go to sleep or dr pimple popper 😂😂 Ik people find it nasty but I enjoy it.

I watch a documentary, asmr, listen to soft music, make myself some hot chocolate, get a soft blanket and pillow. Usually at least one of these work for me. But then again we are all different haha

I rarely have that problem but when I do I eat a huge meal. I think they call it the "Midnight Snack Attack." In any case, I'm full and it makes me tired.

Mental math. I’m getting pretty good at it. Now I understand how autistic savants can do such rapid calculations (like Dustin Hoffman in Rainman) — lots of practice.
