I drank a cup of coffee a few days ago. I don't drink caffeine. I was awake for 27 hours. =_=
I no longer have a sleep scheduled. I wake up around 4p.m and got to bed whenever. I hate having nothing to do :/.
That was me, until I drank the cup of coffee. Now I wake up on a normal schedule (for an 80 year old man, anyway).
Very nice tips. :D
One more thing to add...have surgery. haha I had my wisdom teeth removed. Unlike other people, I wasn't "out of it" after I woke up in the OR. I was very dizzy, but not stupid. ...The doc tried to insist that I was high as a kite..even though I wasn't. :l
But anyway, back to the point, having surgery and taking pain meds makes you sleepy...so I went to bed early and I woke up around 6am this morning.
This may seem crazy, but ASMR videos on youtube calm me a lot.
im having trouble with that internal alarm clock
I can do 3 of these.....I have insomnia but I found a way around it. I play my 3ds with 3d on and it knocks me out after about an hour. Yey stigmatism and overworking my eyes!
I'm pretty much incapable of all of those :/
I work the overnight shift at my job. I haven't had a proper, well-rested sleep in 5 months and it's really taking a toll on me... I find I sleep all day and wake up around 3 in the morning without an alarm clock :/
Thanks, pretty useful.
As someone who has trained their body to go without sleep, I'll comment:Quote:

3. Definitely true for me. Cannot sleep with the television on, period. Discovered this after I've missed sleep for the past 3 nights.
4/5. These kind of contradict each other. Either way, I usually can't go to sleep hungry or otherwise without being full.
6. Sure, yeah. Exercise will tire you out so as a result I typically get better sleep.
7. Mhm. I would naturally need to use the bathroom on a full bladder eventually so good tip.
8. Goes without saying, yeah.
9. Lol, well, as long as I'm sufficiently sleepy/tired it doesn't really matter to me personally.
10. Don't really need one. Alarm clocks tend to impede my sleeping process anyways. As mentioned before, I'll wake up consistently as long as my sleeping pattern is good.
Sometimes I just need to turn off my phone or computer
Listen to slow rhythm music or just piano cover..
Exercise is the best tho!
Make yourself real tired :)
After jogging at night go have a shower and your ready for bed.

Fuck your brains out, have a snack
Sadly I've tried all these suggestions to get a better nights sleep. I kept a routine going for a couple months and nothing worked. At this point I've just given up on trying to get decent normal sleep.
Try having a notepad & a pen next to your bed. So if you are thinking about something when you are about to fall asleep, write it down. This way you wouldn't feel anxious about it.
Writing thoughts is the best way to organize them, not only on paper but in your head. Anything causing anxiety can often be mitigated by slowing your thoughts enough to write them, as well as presenting yourself with the full picture instead of a stream of conflicting ideas.Quote:

I heard the best way to reset your sleep cycle is by going outside.
stick on one routine
important component that is necessary for good sleep, that many people overlook or are just unaware of, is proper magnesium levels in the body. magnesium deficiency is extremely common, particularly in americans. it causes a huge range of symptoms ranging from anxiety, paranoia, insomnia, to muscle aches, migraines, and poor digestion.
Exercising in the day, journaling any problems or stresses a few hours before bed; putting down the tablet or cel phone at least one hour before bed,; taking a lukewarm bath with relaxing book or in candlelight, sleeping in a cool bedroom; practicing regular meditation, yoga, or Chi Gong. Those help me enormously, as well as practicing good sleep hygiene (going to bed at the same time and getting up at the same time), with occasional naps, but no sleeping in, and keeping the bed for sleep and sex.
