Title: What tricks do you use to help you sleep?
Post by: koshgel on February 16, 2015, 06:53:52 AM
If you're like me, sleep time is when all the day's stresses flood your brain and sometimes make it difficult to fall asleep. I've found that counting numbers (1+2 = 3 + 3 = 6 +4 = 10 etc etc) is distracting and has a soothing effect. If that fails, alcohol always helps.

What methods are you guys using?

a nice indica that couch locks you.
I've found a form of meditation helps me, sort of like counting numbers.
edit to add: get away from bright lights too before bed. for example your computer monitor.

drinking mainly, since I don't have sleeping drugs.

And staying away from computer and from math and other combinatorial things as much as possible before sleeping

I hit myself in the head with the other end of a 1 meter thick magnetic iron rod.
Needless to say, it always works.  :D

Nothing, just start to watch tv laying on my bed and within 2 minutes I'm off, mainly because I am really exhausted.

Stick to the same bedtime and wake up time, even on the weekends and avoid heavy meals in the evening.

Sporting activity works.
If I use alcohol, I would fall in sleep fast but then having trouble sleeping in the next evening.

Just lay in my bed, close my eyes and let dreams take me away

Do some light stretches before you sleep. Do the exact same things right before going to bed. Also try to stick to the same sleeping schedule and eventually you will wake up at the same time, without needing an alarm. I have also found the software "Flux" has helped my sleep patterns.

I don't have any problem going to sleep, but are you sure watching porn helps? It's a good distraction, but you're not going to sleep anytime soon after that. :)

Why do you assume he is lazy. Maybe he works really hard as a hitman. :P

Good idea, but i have also been known to use this method to wake up in the morning  :P
If that don't work knock back a valium or 2 with a can of bourbon and goodnight see ya tomorrow.

Note: not a good idea to mix alcohol with pharmaceuticals but it does the trick, also if you need to do this more than once a week seek another safer option.

Have you guys tried listening ASMR? Look up the videos on youtube and put your headphones in. I find them very relaxing and they help me snooze off.

For those saying they use alcohol I'd be careful. Alcohol is not a good idea to help you get to sleep and is very easy to develop a problem this way.

I don't really have problems getting to sleep but I do love all sorts of white noises, they sorta make it more cozy :) My favorite is heavy rain but I also really enjoy the sound of the air conditioner or just any regular fan. I tend to sleep like a baby on planes too lol, love the engine hum (especially after a couple of vodkas)  :D

I also use clonezapam.

However I've realized what keeps me awake at night (had insomnia issues since I was 5) are my thoughts, my brain never shuts up. This is common among people with autism and a way to solve this is getting a heavy covers (they are talking 5-15KG (11-33 pounds)), this has helped a lot of people and I am going to try it when my plaster is off.

Physical workout, a walk for 30 min 1-2 hours before you go to bed should do the trick, but the harder you work out the easier you should fall asleep. Just 30 minutes would be wonderful for me :)
EDIT: also try to stay away from the computer (read a book) 30 minutes or so before you go to bed.

You don't have to read, you can do pretty much anything except sit in front of the TV/computer. The constant FPS updating makes your brain work harder and it will take longer for you to wait for it to calm down and therefore you'll have a harder time falling asleep.

In case someone doesn't know what cyanide is it will kill you and the authorities investigating your death most likely. I know it's a joke but there are kids out there who will try anything without reading up on the subject first.

Alcohol is a slippery slope.  I've had sleep issues most of my life.  Tried the melatonin route, didn't work.  I find having no clock in the room you can look at starts. Limit computer, tv, etc. time before bed.  I usually have a long hot shower before bed.  Make sure you have all the stuff you need done before the shower. (Curtains closed, doors locked, lights in house turned off, etc.)

My gf bought me some lavender sleep spray a while back.  You spray it on your pillows and its supposed to help you relax.  I find it does help.

There is always prescription sleeping pills. I've had really good success in the past with them, but I'm not a fan of taking them.
