What if I can't sleep

China
January 16, 2024 2:10am CST
I had insomnia yesterday and didn't fall asleep until 3am. I was woken up by the alarm clock at 7am and then fell asleep again. It wasn't until 10am that I had a bad dream. I dreamed that my home was leaking water, my mother was sick, and my father went to the hospital to take care of my mother.After waking up, I was too hungry and made some food for myself. I cut the tomatoes into pieces, boil them in water, cut a potato chip, and wash some rapeseed. Put the potatoes and rapeseed separately into the pot and cook. The dip is a mixture of sesame paste and Fermented bean curd.

Some people say that we need to clear our minds. In this way, we can able to sleep like a baby.

Yes, I've tried these past few days and don't think of anything. After I put on a black eye mask, I started silently reciting Arabic numerals or counting sheep, one sheep, two sheep, three sheep…In my opinion, it is effective

@zhangxueying I used to do this before. Since I am basically tired at work, it does not need to count or clear my mind.

Actually, I used to stay up late for a long time, which made it difficult for me to wake up the next day at work.Now, due to health reasons, I need to exercise self-discipline and I cannot indulge my bad habits anymore

It happens to me to have very bad sleep. At least the bad dream woke you up.

@zhangxueying I read before sleeping and I keep our bedroom very dark for the night. We go to sleep at 10 pm and we wake up at 5:30 in the morning.

I have been sleeping at 10 pm for the past two days, and after sleeping, I don't think anything. I wear a black eye mask, counting Arabic numerals in my mind, and then I fall asleep. I didn't wake up in the middle and slept until 9:30 the next day.

@zhangxueying wow. That's a tough way to fall asleep. I always keep myself busy during the day. And at the end of the day because I will be tired, I fall asleep quickly.

I let my brain empty, don't think about anything, then close my eyes, put on an eye mask, and silently recite Arabic numerals in my mind until I fall asleep

I need to regulate my emotions and self-discipline, live a regular life, exercise more, do more housework, and feel a bit tired. Then at 10 pm, I closed my eyes, put on an eye mask, and focused on reciting Arabic numerals until I fell asleep
