I do really look forward to turkey-day dinner all year-round....

If I don't like to take pills and need to fall asleep, what to do?

 

If I don't like to take pills and want to be able to fall asleep without laying in bed for 3 hours awake, what is the best thing you recommend?

Love is the battery of life....

Hi,


Try to find out what are the possible reasons that don't let you fall asleep.  Here are some ideas:
1.  You are not tiered enough.
2.  Something bothers you (work, money,
     relations, children....).
3.  The room is not properly ventilated.
4.  The temperature is too high / low.
5.  The mattress is not comfortable.
6.  Too much food....  Too many drinks...
7.  Too much alcohol (no offence please).
8.  To much noises around. 
9.  Are you excited (B4 a big project, a long
     trip, a new mission....).
10.  Maybe you slept too much during the day
       and you don't really want to sleep.
11.  Perhaps your body doesn't need too many 
      hours to recover (I need some 5 hr.... and I'll
      sure be able to reduce it to 4 hrs......).
Somewhere in between you'll find the answer and you'll know what to do.  If you don't find the answer by yourself then better go to one of the Sleeping Labs (that science made a huge progress in the recent years)....
and if that doesn't help read all my 950+ answers at Yedda and you'll sure fall asleep immediately.....  lol......
Sleep well,

Fool me once,

shame on you!!

Fool me twice,shame on me!

I have some suggestions.

Have two glasses of wine when you have dinner,the wine makes you sleepy.

Also,you can heat up some milk,warm milk will also make you sleepy.

i also,read a book right before i fall asleep,reading helps,but not if it is a really fascinating book!:)

a warm bath followed by a large hot mug of chamomile tea preferably with a shot of whiskey, sipped while watching a mindless TV show usually does the trick

Have a glass of wine or two. If you are not of legal drinking age or prefer not to drink (??) try watching an old movie with the sound turned off (and the color as well if your set-up offers this option0
