Can't Sleep Again....

[Keefe]

So I went to bed at 11:00 pm like normal...  Its now 12:32 and I still cannot fall asleep!  This happens to me all the time.  I often spend hours just lieing in my bed not able to fall asleep.  Does anyone have any tips or suggestions for me?  I have tried everything I could think off, staying up later, going to bed earlier, playing music, making it warmer or colder.

The worst part is that when I cannot fall asleep and cannot wake up early.  I sleep right through two LOUD alarm clocks.  Even if I went to bed at 6:00 i would no be able to wake up on time.  Maybe I am a vampire or something.

If anyone has any serious tips for me just let me know!

Thanks

I have that exact same problem ad. I just can't turn my brain off. It keeps thnking about cgi to develop, how could I improve this script or that script. What upgrades am I gonna make to my pc next. It just won't turn off

Sounds like both of you need to get a life. You need some relaxing extra cirricular activities. Try fishing or tennis. Something that is non-techie. I like to read books-murder mysteries. There are some that you take you through real life murders to solve and some that are pure fiction.

i got the same prob. i think it´s of psychical nature. i cant turn my head off too. mymum wants to put me into therapy. maybe this helps. but who wants a private life. this sux. here we are the mad gawds

(note to admin: i this is against forum rules please delete it)
somking marihuana helps. i know it´s illegal all nearly over the world but i´m really fond of it

i have the same...i have non-techie activites, school and air cadets...thing is last thing i do b4 sleep is on the net

i find watchin tv helps, especially comedy liek frasierl friends, becker anything on paramount comedy lol

I've tried banging it against the wall, only helps for an hour, till I wake up an hour later and am not able to go to sleep cause of the headache  

A simple remedy, go to any health food store, Walmarts etc, where vitamins and food supplements are sold , get a bottle of :

Melatonin 300 mcg.

Take 1 or 2 about 30 mins to an hour before you go to bed. You will sleep like a baby, no side effects, non habit forming, it just turns off you brain, next day you will feel great.  
You can take daily without any problems.
