what do you do when you cant sleep ??

[simplefactoflife]

So just a little thread to find out what you do when you cant sleep.

I go out for a long walk and listen to music, it doesn't always work but it usually clears my head enough to sleep.

[Epicene]

- Get out of bed and read a book
- Do some puzzles
- Listen to music on my ipod
- Try and sleep somewhere else, like spare bed or sofa

[Enthused]

I just daydream a lot. About music or books I like.

[zombiehunter]

I either go look for stuff online or come on here
Play PS4
Read
watch DVD or Netflix

[Too Shy]

Read
Lie on the sofa under a blanket and watch TV (usually Road Wars, Night Cops, Traffic Cops, Police Interceptors, NCIS or...erm, Dance Moms >.>)
Play with my phone
Write my thoughts down
Browse le netz
Or sometimes go for a walk, but I do not recommend that at night!

I usually read or check twitter.

[Field Of Paper Flowers]

Usually settle down in bed and watch YouTube videos until I run out of my subscription ones and try and sleep.

Tumblr is really good too! As I can scroll for ages and eventually I will feel drowsy and doze off.

I just clean computer up (move/organise files etc). I don't to do anything that might keep me awake (games, news sites etc).

Interrupted or segmented sleep is ok

[DestroyMe]

usually watch a DVD or play a game on my phone.
or if internet permits read a fanfic.

[The Queen of Peace]

I happen to have a best friend from the other side of the world and I usually just chat to her if I can't sleep. It's one of the few perks of living so far from each other.

[Puppet Strings]

Write lists in the hope it will shut my brain up.

[Isoverity]

This time of year cheeries are good for sleep since they contain melatonin

[meg_han]

I usually change beds and try sleeping there! It helps me if that fails I'll get a cup of sleepy time tea and watch some Netflix!

[Staticx_xSilence]

This is fairly normal for me so I usually just read and other times find things to keep me busy like planning ahead for the next week. Sometimes I might play a game or two.
