View Full Version : I Can't Sleep

I hate that! :( :mad:

Insomnia? I guess...I dunno.

This has been going on for some time now and it really s.ucks.

I've tried exercise, reading, watching T.V. and simply just lying there
but I still can't sleep. Counting sheep doesnt help either, lol!
I dont have trouble falling asleep, it's STAYING asleep until my
alarm clock goes off is what the problem is.

I hate it when suddenly I find myself staring at the ceiling
at 3 something in the morning with work in a few hours
and I'll probably be no good at all. :(

Anybody else have sleep problems? What do you do?

Awww I#m sorry for you Silouette!
Fortunately for myself, I have no sleep problems but I can't fall asleep if I don't watch tv!

I hope you will sleep soon! :flowers:

I'm an insomniac tonight too. What do I do? Well come to RT lol ... listen to an audio book or podcast on LearnOutLoud.com and clean a bit - that's what I'm about to do now ...

edit: well get sidetracked from that and work on a lil short story I'm writing then get back to the other stuff then hopefully pass out for a few hours ..

.. hopefully make up for this lost sleep tomorrow night

I would go and see your doctor. They will be able to give you some advice or maybe give you something to help you sleep. There are also herbal medicines you can take. My sister was taking herbal Nytol and they really helped her.

have u had this problem before ? coz it could as well be nothing serious. try to get more tired during the day and see if ur able to sleep at night. if not then maybe u should go to a doctor.

Silouette

Thanks you guys.

Nova: My Dr. suggested sleep aids but I rejected that! Flat out!
S.O.S: Sounds like you're very creative and busy!
Roxy: I notice that when I make myself stay awake longer, I sleep longer.
I still may wake up during the night, but at least it's not as many times.
It's so random too. Some nights I wake up 2 or 3 times and I'm
awake from at least 30 minutes to 2 hours.

My friend had a few suggestions :ph34r:but he was just ribbing me
cuz he says he sleeps like a rock. Lol!

I hope this passes soon.

In the meantime, not to worry!
MJJC will keep me company when I have trouble sleeping!

Silouette Im an insomniac a lot of nights myself
sometimes I need to not have any activity or
stimulation before going to sleep. Like the computer
or tv and dim the lights or light some candles
and read a good book? That sometimes makes
me very tired. Or take a nice long bubble bath
beforehand? Avoid eating or drinking anything
with sugar. It helps to meditate too sometimes.
At least for me it does. I make everything quiet
before I lie down. :) Hope some of these hints help?
Have a good day Sil HUG Good luck!

Hi Poe. Those all sound good.
But for me, every since the things I've gone thru in the past 6 months,
it's been very hard for me to sleep without at least my TV going.
I have the volume low but Its like I have to have something.
I've tried a few of the things you have named but it doesnt help.

Like I said I dont have trouble falling asleep, its staying
asleep til morning is where the problem is.

Poefiend
15-06-2009, 04:16 PM
Yeah I do that too
try a fan? the noise
makes you relax
or an air purifier?
the sound soothes me
when I turn mine on :)

Silouette
16-06-2009, 09:23 AM
Aaah! OK. I try to keep up with my peeps, ya know?

Good luck with the placement thing.

I got about an hour and a half before I need to prepare for work.
Imma give this thing called "SLEEP" another go.
Peace out y'all....more to come. :yawn:

For some reason milk before bed usually helps a little. Or if ok from a doctor, use a sleep aid? They have some safe over counter ones that I sometimes take when I can't sleep. If you try, make sure to take them safely. But always ask a doctor first!
It sucks not getting enough sleep! It can lead to stress, fatigue, moodiness. You can get ill if you don't get enough rest as well. Hope it gets better.

Thanks Ian. :)

Cyberjackson, I cant do milk and sleep aides scare me. Lol!
I tried 1/2 of a melatonin tablet for 3 nights back in January.
It seems that I felt better when I woke up for the 3rd that day.
So in other words I didnt sleep straight thru the night like I hoped,
I just felt more rested by morning. Odd.

Do you drink lot of coffee in the day ??

Silouette
17-06-2009, 08:00 AM
Nope. I dont drink coffee nor anything with caffeine.
I eat chocolate occasionally, which has some caffeine in it.
*shrugs*

Mjkop4ever
17-06-2009, 08:08 AM
ok! and if you watch a very bad movie, don't you think you could fall asleep ?? :)

Silouette
17-06-2009, 08:14 AM
Yeah...from boredom! LMAO!

See, I can go to sleep with no problem, it's the staying asleep I cant seem to master.

Mjkop4ever
17-06-2009, 08:39 AM
oh okay!

You must be very tired during the day! :(

Lorraine
17-06-2009, 09:14 AM
Yeah, How do you manage to get through work with so little sleep at night? :(

Do you go to bed early? Maybe try going a little later and you might sleep right through? :)

Silouette
17-06-2009, 11:52 AM
Well.....I go to bed at different times. Sometimes it'll be around 10 or 11. Sometimes a bit earlier like 9 P.M.
If I wake up when the alarm goes off instead of before, I would have like 7 to 7 1/2 hrs. sleep. But thats a rarity.
But since I wake up during the night after only 4 to 5 hours sleep I feel tired, yes, but amazingly, not every time.
I guess since I can fall back asleep after being awake for up to 2 hrs sometimes, I tend to get a few extra winks
before its time to get ready for work. And then I running late! :omg:

It aint easy but I'm managing. I just dont like waking up like that.
It never use to happen before...just within the last, uuuummm, year or so maybe? Off & on. Yah.

Silouette

rest through the night.

Silouette
18-06-2009, 11:24 AM
I slept a little better last night. I only woke up 1 time and I'm sure it was for
less than 30 minutes. I havent tried any of the foods on the list yet...gotta go shopping. Lol!
I already had some pretzels. Not sure if those are helping or not since I eat them all the time. Haha!

Lorr, you last posted at 2:44 A.M.?
I know you are about 5 hours ahead of me so I'm assuming
it was 'rise and shine' time for you anyway, right? :unsure:

I have an appointment this morning. I'm only working the afternoon today.

Lorraine
18-06-2009, 12:01 PM
:yes: Yep, Exactly 5 hours ahead of you so was morning time for me just before work. :yawn: haha!

Aww glad you had a better night :happy: LOL @ The pretzels. :lol:

Lorraine, the list that I posted says that pretzels should enduce drowsiness. Lol! Maybe I shouldnt eat them at work anymore either! Lol!

Danke Poe! ^_^ I'll come back later and re-read your post so
I can fall asleep with your lullaby. :yawn:

You all will be happy to know that I slept straight thru the night. I still woke up about an hour before my 6:30 alarm but hey, I'll take it!
I hope this will be the start of a welcomed pattern.

I'm hoping it will continue. But thanks just the same. :)
Last night was, ummm, different. I woke up about 5 times! :o

That for everyone who can't sleep! It's a bloody nightmare (pardon the pun) I know, I had it for months where I was getting 2-3 hours sleep. Hate it so much, it ruins your entire day.

Relaxing music helps a lot.

Yeah, it's a royal pain in the backside! :angry:
I know I'm not the only one going thru this but I'm glad you shared your experience.
So what happen? Did your sleeping just get back to its normal way?
Did you take pills while listening to the music? :huh:

Mine has improved somewhat. The longer I stay awake, the longer I sleep....sometimes.

I thought I had overslept this morning before I turned to look at the clock.

haha naw I love my bed also, but I meant more like that no matter how tired you are sometimes you just want to stay up a little bit more until you're about to fall apart of tiredness :D
Kinda like, it's 3AM and you should be a sleep, but you would rather stay up a little bit more :D

Yes it is. But last night was terrible.
I had a dream that I was hit upside my head. :blink:
Someone, I dont know who, told me to stop feeling "that way".
and that was the end of the dream.

I also woke up about 5 times. :(

I miss Michael so so so much.
I cant believe this sh!t! I cant believe he's gone!
It's so unreal. Doesnt seem real at all!
It's like its not suppose to be this way.

If I can't fall asleep at all I will turn on the TV and wait until I eventually fall asleep or make a cup of tea.

I don't sleep almost at all.
At night I'm listening to music and drawing, sometimes I'm surfing on the internet a litte bit.
When sun comes up I usually take photos of sunrise with my camera phone :D I actually have one of them as my deskop wallpaper :)
Sometimes I'm playing with my brilliant, cute-to-the-can't-handle-it-level dog :D
And I'm reading biographies of famous people or serial killers(don't ask me why, I just do)
Other times I sleep for about 3 hours, success!

I always have problems with staying asleep. I wake up several times at night. I just learned to live with it. *shrugs*
If I can't fall asleep at all I will turn on the TV and wait until I eventually fall asleep or make a cup of tea.

Sounds like me. :/

I've had sleep problems since I was a little girl, I've always had a hard time turning my brain off so I can get to sleep. The past three weeks have been rough because my mind is just going going going. I'm right there with all of you... It's a little after 1AM here and I have to go to work in the morning but I'm still up.. still here.. still awake.

I have had such trouble sleeping ever since Michael's death. It is from all of these dreams I keep on having of him. So I was pretty much up all night long again. So I am really tired right now. So I am going to have some tea to wake myself up. I really do not want to go to sleep any more. Because I never know what kind of dream that I am going to be having of Michael. So far since Michael's death I've had 3 very sad MJ dreams. and countless of nightmares about Michael. 2 of them being very horrific. And fortunately I did have good MJ dreams. But I had more nightmares about Michael than on having the good dreams about him. Which is why I don't want to sleep anymore. I am at a point now where I am ready to take a knife and cut off my eyelids. So I can stay awake at all times now. When Michael was alive I very rarily ever had any nightmares about Michael. And I most certainly never had any sad dreams about him. Just knowing Michael is alive and well was enough to keep me from having any bad dreams about him. And always giving me happy and very happy dreams about him.

try not to watch tv or stay on the computer right before you go to bed as it keeps the brain too active. try to read or something quiet. also if you are lying in bed and can't sleep get up and do something. just lying there thinking about it makes it worse. also lettuce has natural properties to induce sleep apparently, though you would probably have to eat a ton of it.

I know what you mean Missy Jackson. I remember during that horrible summer and in to early to mid fall. My insomnia was so bad at times. That I slept on and off 3 times in 90 minutes. That 3rd time I was up for the rest of the night. Because going back to sleep was just impossible for me. Having those horrible constant vivid nightmares about Michael Jackson. Was the main cause of my insomnia.


Now my insomnia is coming back. And I am starting to think it has to do with me missing Michael so much now. It is 5:24 am here and I have been up for an hour now. I had chamomile tea before I went to bed and it did helped once before. So I don't know why it did not helped now.

The herbal supplement Valerian Root has saved my life. It helps with insomnia, nerves, anxiety, and my depression. It may not work for everyone but I refused to go on prescription meds so this alternative is what I chose, until I find another job that isn't killing me, then hopefully I won't have to take anything :girl_sigh: I bought it at Whole Foods and it's not that expensive a bottle of 50 capsules was only like $20. I take it at night only when I need to and it has made a HUGE difference for me.
