I want to sleep, but I can’t. My mind won’t turn off and once I lay down I don’t feel sleepy. I have to get up earlier tomorrow, so any suggestions as to how I can fall asleep easily and quickly?

    Yes. This happens to me every night. Write a book in your head where you are the narrator. It always makes me fall asleep.

    Maybe you can try a few physical methods like putting on some soothing music, relaxing your body a little by doing some stretches or maybe even yoga.

    Sometimes when you lie down, don’t think of anything at all and you’ll slowly drift to sleep.

    Or…. Find something that will make you so bored that you’ll fall asleep. Like if you really **** math, then buy a Calculus book or something and start reading chapter by chapter until you can’t take any more of it and fall asleep.

    - and if none of those methods work… Perhaps you should see a doctor for advice or medicine that may help you sleep well.

    Lately, I’ve had troubles staying awake…even during the day.

    But I find when insomnia kicks the sandman in the sack that getting in my PJ’s, sitting in a very comfortable position, and watching some mellow TV puts me to sleep.

    If you get interested in doing something, like reading or writing or watching a movie-or worry about the stress of the day, then you’re brain will remain active and won’t be able to drift into a proper level of sleep.

    There are multiple remedies for insomnia that don’t have to resort to medication. Warm milk, easy listening music that have no words, counting sheep (yeah, that works for me too), are some examples of easy sleep methods. If you find yourself with racing thoughts, then take a deep breath and find some small noise to focus on. A fan blowing, the wind blowing, your pet breathing, or the music I mentioned earlier. Just completely focus on that one sound and let everything else drown out. Since a monotonous sound is generally boring, you should fall asleep rather easily since the brain is not being stimulated.

    In the worse case scenario, you can resort to some sleep aids or a tsp of cough medicine to help you relax and drift into slumber. But more than anything, find yourself in a comfortable spot- your bed, a chair, or a couch, and let your stress melt away. Forcing yourself to sleep doesn’t normally work and the stress of trying to do it keeps you awake. So you need to relax before going to bed. Try doing practicing some methods an hour or so before you bedtime each night alleviate insomnia for when bedtime comes.

    I hope that was helpful
    g’nite.
