Sleepless Nights

[Baz]

I do not know why but I cannot fall asleep tonight. I'm possibly running on adrenaline from the fantastic performance our Toronto Maple Leafs showed us tonight. Some of you must have some suggestions on what to do with restless nights aside from taking any medication. I've tried warm milk, counting sheep and counting backwards from 100 and still up. I'm sure many of you are sound asleep and my question will not be answered tonight. Perhaps a little television which I rarely do will help.

So you filled your bladder, did math twice (exercising your brain), and you still cannot sleep... Perfect.

Now... I don't know if you are a sleep in silence person or a sleep with noise person. Either is fine. If noise then put something on. If silent then do that. Make sure you are in a dark room, laying comfortably. Warm but not overtly hot. Close your eyes, and even if it kills you... Leave them closed. Relax your body and think of something peaceful. So... no math, no work, no forums, no social situations, etc. Think of benign things like walking on a beach, or through an Autumn forest... or simply think of nothing. Just close your eyes, get comfortable, and let go.

Most of us start to toss, turn and fidget when we feel we are unable to go to sleep, and therefore we are counter productive to ourselves by getting up, or keeping ourselves awake. Eventually we do indeed fall asleep.

That is great advice, I'm going to try it myself next time I can't doze off.

PS...Baz did end up falling asleep I have proof

I have had times in my life where I had trouble sleeping and use to make all the classic mistakes. Now I have a routine and I sleep 1000 times better. If I am still too amped up I do something relaxing before I even attempt to lay in bed.

No one sleeps well when their head is spinning with thoughts so I never got the concept of counting. I use to do the "infinite series" when I was much younger. Which is fabulous until you really have to think about it (think 7 digit numbers and beyond). Never put me to sleep but it sure as heck entertained me. :biggrin2:

Masturbating twice in 15 minutes works for me.

A sleeping pill.

I vaguely remember those days,lol.

 

[Ms.FemmeFatale]

Maybe you should pray about it? Ask for help to get to sleep? Or to assist you in finding out why you are so restless?

Damn...misread it. I thought he said 15 days. And I was gonna boast.... :sorry2:

Bozo Bozo Bozo, youre as dumb as a stump. You have a beautiful woman laying beside you, maybe she's a little cranky but from previous reports we will assume she's a hottie. Just plow her, then spoon her and you'll drift off into lalalalalalalalala land together.

 

[TROOPS]

Listen to femme......................try prayer. lmao
