What do you do on a sleepless night?

Last night, I couldn't sleep. Normally, I usually sleep at ten o'clock. But last night, I spent the next 12 o'clock and still not sleepy. I got up and doing exercises about 30 minutes. It made me feel better. Then, I opened the desk light to read a comic book. I have read the book before my eyes softened and fell asleep without noticing me know :) I think I slept at 2:00 AM. How about you? What do you do on a sleepless night?

I'm sleepless at night too sometimes. It usually works if I make a nice lemongrass or lavender tea (but they wake me up if I fall asleep too quickly). Whenever I start reading I become sleepy, so for me reading a book is the best.

I play online games or read a book, play music until I feel asleep.

Thank you for all sharing. I often read book. But I often don't feel sleep, I only feel eyestrain :) So, I think that listening to music is the best :)

I guess it depends on what mood I am in. If my body is hyperactive, I have to get up and do something. For example, clean or do laundry. That usually wipes me out pretty easily. . Otherwise I would suggest watching some good TV (I just bought Season 7 of NCIS - I LOVE this show could watch it for DAYS AND DAYS ON END!!!), read a good book (or a really boring book - THAT will put you to sleep!), or even come on MyLot. MyLot is a great way to pass the time, I have found - as I am currently at work and waiting for 10 oclock to roll around. . Happy MyLotting, and I hope you get some sleep.

Oh, I don't think that working at night is good for me. Because my house is quite small. I would make noise and my husband will be woke up!

Usually just lie there and toss and turn as the computer is always off by ten here. I can't disturb others with it that are sleeping, nor the Tv cause there are two people sleeping where the TV is too. If I still had my old apt I would do either of them to help me sleep.

I can't do anything in room because other person won't sleep. So, I go out and doing exercise.

Read a book. I sometimes find myself reading until morning if i find the book enjoyable. I sometimes fall asleep reading if the book is boring.

When I cannot sleep I switch on my laptop and look for one of the movies I have watched and slept halfway through and repeat them. It always works for me and I always end up sleeping.

I read books, novels, magazines but usually I read novels. I also drink a glass of milk every night, I think it helps in sleeping. If I can't really sleep after drinking and reading, the last resort would be to watch television. So I'll watch television until I feel sleepy.
