I often can not sleep in deep night. My friend you should get up and do not lie in bed. However I do not know what I should do. Sometime I like to write blog, but i am afraid of that i can not sleep for whole night. How do you deal with that? Do you often can not sleep at night?

Hi friend It is well known that this habit is unhealthy but mostly nowadays this situation is being seen in all the person aged between 30-50 and is basically working. Although this habit can not be ignored but we are always ignore it beause of there is no any solid solution which can give us really relief. You may prefer top go to doctor and he will provide some medicines for sleeping but it is not advisable because of all this kinds of medicines gives a long term pain for you and will generate a bad side effect. Also when you became habitual then you can not sleep without the medicine. So don't search the reason and self try to get a relax in the life and so good sleepy life.

I also have a difficulty sleeping at night. What I do is since I cant write here anymore because my brain is not functioning well, I will watch a movie or korean/taiwanese drama so that my eyes will get tired and my brain will shut down.

Even I sit on the net if I can't sleep for long. And sometimes, I meditate or do some deep breathing. I just try my best to fall asleep at times and I am just lying on the bed rolling from one side to another and finally I fall asleep. :-) But yea, it can be tough at times when you can't sleep until late. Let's see what time I sleep tonight, because I had my second cup of coffee and I am already very sensitive to caffeine... Ha ha .. It's going to be a late night mylotting I guess.

Last night, I went to bed quite late, at around 2.00. I just did not want to sleep, I wish 24 hours can be spent like daytime or evening time, but not sleep. I was drawn in music last night, so I was unwilling to turn off my computer last night. I listened one after another. You know, at late night, it's very cozy and relaxing to listen to your favorite music. I doubt if there is anyone who does not like music. A night accompanied by music is a wonderful night.

I will just go on the computer if I can not sleep maybe make some more post on my lot which sometimes helps me to be able to sleep. Or I would go download stuff or go on pogo.com to play some of there games which I really enjoy to do. But sometimes not trying to sleep when you cant sleep is the best thing to do to help you be able to sleep.

If that happens I will try to relax, and take a hot bath, relax with a book, drink some warm tea or cocoa. And lay in bed with a book and eventually your eyes will get tired. :) I think going on the computer when you should be sleeping makes you feel more wide awake.

If I can't sleep at night, I usually read. However, that may end up making me stay awake longer because I will get involved in what I am reading and not want to stop. Sometimes I turn the tv on. I don't usually get online because if I do, I end up staying up way too long! There are just too many interesting things to do online and one thing leads to another and I end up staying up all night! Reading is definitely the thing I do most often when I can't sleep.

If I am unable to sleep at night I usually prefer reading books, specially comics. Yeah I still love reading comic books and I have a very huge collection. Other than that I also like to watch movies or just surf the internet. And if I have some peding task then I also do that, usually I prefer to read or watch movies. Also like to watch TV but not that much. Usually I am awake till late night on weekends and do work on my earning sites and watch movies. And then ofcourse the morning is late but this is how I like to wake up late in the mornings on weekends.

There were times that I would go online and read thru discussions here in myLot. It makes me think and thus makes me weary then makes me want to go back to sleep. Its not that it's boring or anything but it makes me use my brain thus making me tired.

sometimes I will take a tylenol PM or a swig of nyquil if I have to be refreshed in the morning for a meeting. Sometimes a hot bath and a hot drink like tea with milk helps. Sometimes reading something boring helps too. lol

I have trouble sleeping every night and I sleep at all hours through out the day, I know it's very unhealthy but I've tried to re correct my sleep pattern and I haven't had any luck. I have really bad insomnia and I have for years, it's just aggravating, I wish I was on a normal sleep schedule since I haven't been for quite some time now. If I can't sleep I'm usually working on my blog, website and here on mylot along with watching TV or once in a while I'll play a video game or two on my Nintendo Wii system.
