Falling asleep...

I'm having a rough time falling asleep. I just got a new job full time and I guess i'm excited for some reason. That's my only theory because I used to just play games and crap untill I was tired. The last 3 nights it took me 3 hours of laying in bed to fall asleep.

Does anyone here have any tips? I've heard that green tea helps, anyone try this? I can't toke up because I have to get a drug test soon. I don't feel like chugging any nyquil either...

If you have any thing that worked for you, please, tell me :(

Hmm, about a 6 pack of brewskies.

yes i have a great tip y0, ok before u go to bed, go take a bath a long one about 45 minutes get a lavender bubble bath and just relax....then drink tea chamomile works, then lay down and breathe in and out long breaths till u get sleepy it cuts a little oxygen to your head thats why i do it, but i fall right to sleep:) hope u try this it does work, well for me it does anyway. If not get some kind of sleeping remedy pill...

i awalys find leaving the tv on wen in bed...makes me go to sleep,,or just a gud shag knocks me out :D

peace

Tylenol PM's, Walmart has a cheaper version called Equate Pain Reliever PM which works just as well. 2 pills knock me out.

as lola said try chamomile. green tea is really good for you, but it has caffeine in it so if you had it before bed make sure you get caffeine free green tea.

Yeah but that's because you're tired, I feel like I can't get to sleep, I don't know why o_O

melatonin

I used to have that problem, Nugs...I'd be lying in bed for a few hours each night, never actually getting to sleep...wanna know what I did?

First, I had a mental breakdown. Then I didn't sleep for a couple of days, and I followed this by drinking myself silly, and passing out on my buddy's lawn. Ever since then, it never seemed to be so bad when I couldn't sleep right away. Just try not to get dependent on sleep-aids...best way to go is natural. Get more exercise, chew some valerian root.

If your full-time job is a 9to5 type deal, you might not be wired for that sleep cycle. Anywhere from 17 to 23 years old, you're meant to sleep until late morning, and be awake until late night. I'm like that now, which sucks because I wake up at 7am...I'm simply a crabby asshole until I've been awake and coherent for a few hours. But I find that I don't actually need all that sleep...5 or 6 hours a night is OK for me now.

Or you could go the fun way...drink Bawls when you need to be awake.

Beleive me, it works. Its like drinking 7 cups of coffee, but because its natural Guarana, there's no jittery feeling, or the need to urinate frequently.
