it's been impossible for me lately, even with ambien which usually knocks me out. benadryl does absolutely nothing and neither does nyquil.
i've only been able to sleep about 1-2 hours every night for the past week. i'm tired but i just can't sleep. |

I CANNOT stand sleeping when it's cold. I used to live in an old drafty house, and during the winter I wouldn't sleep very good. Now that I have air conditioning where I live, the lowest I put it on this past summer was 76. My friends think I am crazy.
I agree with everyone who said that you need to find something that helps you unwind and calm down. I find that when I'm stressed about things I usually go to bed and lay there thinking about things... which just keeps me from sleeping. I've been trying to get myself back on schedule because going to bed at random times just f*cks with my mind. Reading is a great thing to do before bed if you're stressed... it's almost like an escape (depending on what you read). |
