felixthecat1 Posted December 27, 2004 Report Share Posted December 27, 2004 It's a lovely day (down here in the smoke anyway). Get out and get some cold fresh air in your lungs. Go for a walk, take a neighbours dog or tag along to a park with a friend or neighbour who has kids. That will knacker you out and sleep will be easy.

rmmacauley Posted December 27, 2004 Report Share Posted December 27, 2004 Here's what is known as sleep hygiene , and should be looked at before considering a sleeping tablet from your GP- - what do you do before going to bed ?- exercise or something scary on tv may affect your sleep. - how much tea/coffee/cola do you drink? caffeine will stop sleep and shouldn't be taken after teatime or at all if sleep is a persistent problem. -is the bed reasonably comfortable and warm , dark etc? -do you have a routine eg bed at similar times each night , not doing night shifts or something like that? If all these things are ok and still no sleep then it might be time to see the doctor. Good luck PS counting sheep doesen't work! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wtf Posted December 27, 2004 Report Share Posted December 27, 2004 I have a few tips to try before you resort to seeing the doctor! All of the above apply but also try the following: -Take a bath before bed with essential oils for relaxation. -Try spending an entire night without sleep, then go to bed as normal the next night, resisting all urges to nap during the day. This could restart a routine you may have lost. -Bizarre but it works: Soak a long sock in cold water and put it on one leg and cover with a dry sock then go to bed. You should fall asleep fairly quickly as blood is forced away from your brain down to the cold leg, making you drowsy. I would have said that this one is complete pants (or socks!) but I tried it once during my insomniac youth and it did work!! Hth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
