How do you make yourself sleep

[Soon4me]

when you can't seem to get to sleep?

 

[FullFat]

Chew my meds. Otherwise, a combination of alcohol, Benadryl, melatonin, and valerian root tea. Oh, and blue light blocking glasses because I'm a desperate fruit cake.

 

[Deckchairs]

I take meds every night that lets me sleep. Now so used to them that I basically can't sleep without them.

 

[lv-gras]

i don't? terrified of sleep now.

 

[couldntthinkofaname]

l theanine bur i have the problem i wake up after 4h

 

[Anarchy]

I keep myself awake for as long as I can , so that I fall asleep from exhaustion.

 

[Cold]

Melatonin. It also makes my blood pressure really low and makes me very lightheaded which I don't like. But at least I can sleep.

 

[Nzbeelover]

I lay there with my eyes close till I pass out
It takes me a solid 2-3 hours at best.. I don't give up though
When I eventually fall asleep it's one of my trauma related dreams for what feels like years
I can't stay asleep for very long periods so when I wake up I repeat the process depending on how alert I am

Blah blah ignore me I'm pretty much talking to myself here

 

[Brokenanddeadinside]

Medication or weed.

 

[St.Jimmy]

Zopiclone works most of the time for me

 

[Madrid27]

Pill

I dream about being in arms of my crush.

I dream about being in arms of my crush.

That would actually do the opposite for me. Being horny and having a boner would make it real difficult for me to get shut-eye

Speaking of shut-eye though,I better get some myself now. See you all later.

Melatonin. It also makes my blood pressure really low and makes me very lightheaded which I don't like. But at least I can sleep.

Ouch, I've never heard of that side effect before. I take it on the regular and have been feeling strange lately.

 

[Ssname]

Stay up super late and take melatonin. Most of the time have something to drink too. It doesn't always work but it's the best chance. Hasn't worked tonight though. It's 5:30 am so I think I might just not sleep and hope tomorrow is better

It's quite a uncommon side effect, but my blood pressure is really low anyway. In what way are you feeling strange?

 

[Dog Food]

I'm starting Restoril (I think that's how you spell it). I've been on everything from melatonin to anti-histamines to certain illegal drugs for years, and my doctor just prescribed me it. I've heard it has bad side effects though, which would probably be worse for me since I'm anorexic. Anyone have any luck with this?

 

[lastsummer]

I take ativan and 2 melatonin for sleeping everyday. But, last night I got an awesome news and get too excited. So, I could not sleep until 6 O'clock in the morning. I took 3more melatonin/not work and took another avitan at 6 am. Finally, I can get some sleep and woke up at my usual time which is 11:30 am. this morning. I definitely can not sleep without pill.

Same here.

 

[Tomasnil]

Sleeping pill or vodka.. Sometimes exhaustion

 

[IRIYAMA]

I take extra Lyrica (nerve pain meds), about 300-450mg at night and can usually get about 6 hours sleep.

[stellabelle]

when you can't seem to get to sleep?

Take about six otc sleeping tabs.
Added effect: with alcohol.

 

[Redt2go]

Binge eating

 

[Angst Filled Fuck Up]

If I can't sleep, I try not to "fix" it - that signals to my brain that there's a problem which will only keep me up longer. If I notice I can't nod off, I just go on my computer, go smoke a cigarette, get a drink etc. Basically just carry on with life until I'm bleary-eyed and really ready to pass out.

 

[therhydler]

I can't sleep without meds. Like, at all

 

[Aesthler]

I've been taking two tablets of L-Tryptophan lately and it's been knocking me out and giving me the strangest dreams.

Yeah, they're just supplements you can buy them anywhere, I purchased mine from Amazon.
