I know how you feel, Alee. There's many a night when I just don't feel tired, even though it's going for 2 or 3 am. :o :eek: With me, the thing that works everytime as far as falling asleep is if I try reading a book while in bed. I'm out in a matter of minutes when I try that. I guess it doesn't work for everyone though. Sorry I don't have any better suggestions.

That brings up the question. Have you ever stayed up for 24 hours straight? I think I've only done that once and the few days after that I was exhausted.

Reading never puts me to sleep for some reason. If I can't sleep I usually have a peanut butter cracker or some soup to warm my belly and try again. And if i still can't sleep I always end up counting sheep.

yeah i;ve done that a few times. actually stayed up 2 whole days. that was whan i had exams tho, and i had to study sooo much. hope it payed off. for that, i had black coffee and pro plus tablets. yuk yuk. then i slept for nearly 3 days after that! :D was a bit tired lol

I don't think I've made it quite 24 hours, but definitely 20-22 hours. It's horrible, especially late in the afternoon of 'Day 2'. I start to feel very ill, hungry, nauseous.. not a fun feeling.

Alee, to get to sleep, I generally think until I can't think anymore. Also, thinking of sleep, and visually being asleep, tends to work for me.

maybe warm milk or a warm bath helps... good luck! and sleep well :)

oooh! i often have this trouble, it sucks!! i try and stop myself thinking, but i never can, its like i try and empty my mind, and i visulise this as like black, or white, and then i think about something black, and it goes on from there.
I did used to read before going to bed, but i dont have anything i want to read at the mo. Which i should probably get. And when i have a book i get too engrossed in it and want to stay up all night reading it anyway!

As for staying up all night, i have done so twice, and both times ive got really really tired and ratty by the end of the second day. its horrible!

Love the comic :D hehe

ah visulising sleep, i might try that one, thanks!

woo. erm, i dont really have any tips! sometimes getting up and doing something helps, i gues reading really.. erm, just dont get too annoyed with it, thats what i used to do, and get myself into a right state, which definately didnt help the sleeping!
