Poll of the Day > I can't sleep

(+) Yeah! (+)

First time in a long while this has happened. I even took Klonopin and it didn't help.

Poop.

Imagining being a black hole and a white hole simultaneously helps me.

Or vice versa.

Step 1, find fans as many as you can. Place them around your bed, and turn them all on full power. Hopefully you have at least 2 as you want cross wind.

Step 2: Make a hot drink (nothing with caffeine, but hot chocolate is great, or hot cider, a sleepy time tea anything like that). Drink that.

Step 3 take a hot shower, as hot as you can stand.

Exit the shower and dry off quickly then get in bed with the fans blowing on you directly.

The body will go into shut down mode, to conserve heat. It's the difference between your current body temp and the temp outside your body that does it. Do this for a few minutes then turn off the fans and snuggle under your blanket.

You should fall asleep quickly.

Look up ASMR videos on youtube. Those put me out like a light when I'm having one of those nights.

Listen to Bob Ross. He always puts me into a doozy.

Low dose melatonin. Like 1 mg or less. With melatonin less is more. High doses will actually make it harder to sleep in the long run.

L-theanine helps too. It's a natural amino acid found in tea leaves and certain mushrooms. It won't make you sleepy by itself but it helps you to relax, reduce stress and quiet your mind.

For taking a medicine prescribed to me by a psychiatrist?
