Sleepless in <insert hometown>

Argh, I'm sick of this. For that last 3 months, I haven't fallen asleep earlier than 2am. Two of those three months involved me fairly consistently getting up at 8am. Just lately, it's been getting worse - if I went to bed now, I wouldn't fall asleep until around four. It doesn't matter so much right now (I can make up for it in the daytime) but when I go back to uni I have exams, and I don't want to be comatose when I need to be alert.

Has anyone had any experience with Insomnia or similar? Can anyone suggest some remedy that I can easily obtain/action I can perform that will help me sleep earlier?

How about a ball-peen hammer and some dramamine? Works wonders.

I don't think anything exists that can properly fight the symptoms of insomnia without prescription, and even that's not foolproof, seldom recommended for longterm trouble, and doesn't help the cause of your insomnia.

Causes of insomnia include nutritional imbalance, chemical imbalance, psychological pressures, and brain disease - find out which one's your cause and try to fix it! :p

Yeah...i didnt sleep for about 13 months. They tried Ambien on me and it worked for a few days, but then back to no sleep. I finally tried my own experiments and in the end I started drinking hot tea with Valarian in it about 3 times a day. Then I stayed up for about 5 days straight with absolutely no sleep and when I was finally tired, I went to bed at 9pm and got up at 5 am. Somehow, I got myself on that schedule by staying up for so long. Some sort of shock to my sleep habits so to speak.

Same here. I usually won't fall asleep till four, and often till around six. I compensate by sleeping and extra four hours during the day.

I can guess which is mine, but I can't change the circumstances, so...

Change your coping strategy? Alter the way you think about the cause, or get support for it socially (telling-a-friend, getting sympathy, even sometimes help is our version of apes grooming each other - weird buut it helps!), or, finally, yes, giving yourself 'treats', distracting yourself(smoking/drinking/drugs/shopping/eating etc etc) is a way to help, in the shortterm anyway. And of course alcohol's a depressant, so it mighht help there too.

I do that with the radio at the moment, although more because I like a little noise wherever I am. I'll turn it down more - perhaps the volume was keeping me up a little longer than necessary.

yes that does work. the thing is, we think its turned down low when we intially lay down. but our ears adjust to the quiet of the night so after a few minutes of laying down, perhaps turn it down just a bit more to achieve just the right zzzzzzzzzz volume.

Heh! Oh well - I'd recommend cognitive therapy (changing the way you view the stressors, make sure you're not 'awfulising' the situation; you can do this yourself if you read up a little on it - not right now, mibbe!), and bitching sessions with like minded folk :)

Ever since I moved to where I am now (a month ago) I've been having a similar problem. Well, I've been on medication for insomnia for 3 years or so, but moving here (Quite a difference, Toronto to Newfoundland, so quite a massive difference in environment, pollution, etc.) screwed it up. It worked for a few nights, but then it lost effectiveness, so I went off it for a week, then went back on because it was worse without, but unless I took enough to knock out a horse, it wouldn't help me get to sleep 'early' at this point.

If you find something not listed in this thread, do share. X.x;; Only workable suggestions I've seen in here were the music, but I have quiet background noise all night and it does nada to put me to sleep, and the valerian tea, although my mom has the same problem and it was hard enough to find a store that sold it in Ontario, let alone in Newfoundland, AKA the biggest small town in the world. >.<;

Most stuff that does seem to work - often only for a time - is courtesy of the placebo effect :( Good luck on the reading-up-on-cognitive therapy for destressing, hope you get some sleep soon!

Oh, one other thing... you might try to read Steven King's 'Insomnia' - not a bad read, loads of 'cures' for insomnia mentioned (hey, one of them might work!), and it's not full on horror, more 'speculative fiction'. Worth checking out if all else fails:D

Getting a really comfy bed. If you're able too, spend a lot of money on it. After all, you'll spend more time in it than the rest of your house.

Writing a list of things you're worried about before going to bed. This will help stop you mind racing as you try to sleep.

Take up yoga. They'll teach you how to relax your body fully.

Get lots of sunshine during the day, but none an hour or two before you sleep.

Move your bedroom. You will find it easier to fall asleep. your current bedroom may be associate in your mind with the inability to sleep

Yeah, I was joking when I mentioned it. :p

Anyway, paracetamol can be deadly. You OD on it and don't get your stomach pumped in time, the paracetamol leads to liver failure. And I think (IIRC) that an OD, even if you get your stomach pumped just in time, can lead to some permanent liver damage.

Damned drug companies - I bet Remeron is called something different here too. Ah well, maybe I'll use quibble's idea of a hammer.

speaking of comfy beds....i know everyones seen the commercial for the memory foam beds and all. i went to a bed store and tried one out (no, i just laid down on it Tribes, thats all) and i admit it was comfortable, but you cant roll over on them! its like once you lay down, youre down. i felt like i was in quicksand when i tried rolling over on to my side. it was so weird. i suggest everyone trying it so you can see the weirdness firsthand.

Well, eventually I'll be getting a pillow-top mattress, but for now there's really no money to go toward a decent new bed (or yoga classes/equipment) until after we, y'know, get a coffee table and stuff. (I'm sleeping on my 8-year-old cousin's old bed at the moment, although it is pretty comfy, no springs popping out or anything major, so it's not really a comfort issue, I don't think.)

It's not that I'm worried/upset about anything, or even depressed. I'm happier here than I was before we moved, that's for sure. xD

Sunshine is a bit of a problem, living this far north. And my current bedroom hasn't had time to become associated with anything for my psychologically.

Really thankful for the suggestions, though. ^^; Not much has ever worked for me, though. It'll probably take major tranqs (Yay, drug plan kicks in in March, at least that's before I start uni up here) or something similar to get me back into a healthy sleep pattern.

I have been having insomnia for about 2 months now, I talked to my doctor today and he wants me to ween myself off of caffiene. If after 3 weeks that doesn't help he will give me a script for a non-narcotic sleeping pill.

I would suggest, trying to limit caffiene, and make sure your room is dark, don't just lay in bed awake either, get up and do something (clean house, listen to music ect.) Laying in bed thinking about how you aren't sleeping yet, is always a bad idea.

I've just learnt to cope on little sleep, somehow or another. Meh - even when I do get lots of sleep, I''m still fairly shattered.

I've been to the doctor and they just come up with the usual advice. I've tried everything I've been reccomended and they don't help me. Sleeping pills did kinda work (in that they made my sleep half decent; I didn't get to sleep any earlier/quicker), but the side effects I got weren't worth it.

Sorry to not read the thread properly first, but if you haven't tried sleeping pills, they could be the answer for you. Exercise or just going for a walk can help sometimes as well. It's also a good idea to not go from the computer/tv straight to bed....

So did you get any sleep last night Tribes? I didnt cause I was upset that my thread got shuffled off to the khaki brown forum. I guess the mods arent as happy to see me come back as the rest of you are. I knew I should have slept with Max Barry.
*curses*

and I am rather curious if Tribes did get any sleep.

thanks sweetheart:fluffle:

I have to admit....after reading this thread, I had trouble sleeping. I took a hot bath with some Bath & Body Works smelly good stuff and soaked for a bit. Then I laid there and played the electronic 20 Questions game thingy I have. That thing always helps put me out. Maybe I should send Tribes one.

Heh. I got some sleep - I got plenty of sleep, in fact - but not only did I only get to sleep at 5am (unacceptable tbh), I was shattered when I woke up. I'm only just properly awake now. Since my alternatives are beginning to look like 'take some GHB', I think I could do with that 20 questions game.

Ah, I forgot to mention it yesterday; At the moment I'm spending less time outside the house than normal e.g. I was outside for a grand total of probably half an hour today. I'm still exercising, it's just limited more to upper body exercise.
