SRC Member kareen Posted March 29, 2005 SRC Member Share Posted March 29, 2005 When I can't get to sleep in bed, I get up and do some boring stuff like reading a book. I will try to chose a book that I normally do not read (boring) so that after reading a while I will feel sleepy......

SRC Member hammerhd Posted March 29, 2005 SRC Member Share Posted March 29, 2005 Bro dun use sleeping pills its useless as it only induce physical sleep not mental sleep. I suspect there is something weighting on your mind cos it is usually the body is tired but ur brain doesnt right??? Try not to sleep in the day no matter how tired avoid caffine based drinks eg coffee, coke etc. do not execise within 3 hrs of sleep. Sleep in a definite time that is if u want to fall asleep at 11pm go to bed at 11pm EVERY night. so that ur biological clock can reset itself. Hope this help if not i still got more remedies Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SRC Member riot Posted March 29, 2005 SRC Member Share Posted March 29, 2005 laW- how do you define a sleeping problem? If you sleep at 2am, and then wake up at 7 to drag yourself to lectures, and koon when the lecturer talks, that is a tertiary syndrome. Nothing to do with mental or medical problem. I think all U undergrads go thru that one time or another, with or without boozing and parties and what not. But if you go to bed, cant sleep, exist in a semi-vegetative state where reality breezes in and out, wake up groggy and tired, and for 7 months, you have serious problem. Is it stress? Medical issues? Split personalities ala Fight Club? I agree with hammerhd- you gotta settle the base issue first. 7 months is too long.

SRC Member AquaRa Posted March 29, 2005 SRC Member Share Posted March 29, 2005 yes. try to follow your body's biological timer. in the first few hours prior to sleep, get a nice warm shower, do some routine and boring stuff. try to do try anyting exciting. you should be able to sleep. another method is pop some vitamin c tablets and think that you have just taken sleeping pills. sometimes placebo effect does work...

SRC Member LaW Posted March 29, 2005 Author SRC Member Share Posted March 29, 2005 wao~ good response from u guys out there. greatly appreciated. this shows how helpful reefers are. all these happened after my stay in states for 3 months. try classical music and watching my reef tank which is in my room? wont help but i always do that. excercise? yes i do some exercise like jogging, abit of gyming. once in a while. gf? yes i have one lovely 1 but maybe not for sometimes doing exercise with her? thats for your own imagination. poping pills? never tried that. caffein? dont touch those. once in a while nicotine. drinking beers or alcohol? yeah, about once a week. helps abit but cannot always drink right? i dun want a constricted liver. and money issues comes about. Singapore its not the place where coke cost more than whisky. If im in europe, i might do that. Tried to stay awake for 24 hrs? yes i did, just tried it last thursday during my paper. staying awake for more than 30hrs. update on today, went on bed at about 7am, cant sleep, the last time i remembered looking at the clock was like near to 9am but woke up at about 11+ am to drag myself to take another paper. body feeling tired? but the mind is awake? Yes. My mind always wondering somewhere, thinking thinking and never stop thinking. maybe thats why i have quite abit of white hair as compared to the other pple my age. feeling abit reckless most of the time in the day stress? nah... im a stress-free guy. nothing really bothering me. maybe gf and family once in a while. I got good friends, reef, games, pets(2 chicken, 2 rabbits, 1 hamster, 2 dogs to play around with *something i gave pride to myself for being a animal lover*) and academic results. hot bath? wont work on me. i think i feel even more refreshed. watching TV? wont work. reading books? hates books. most of the time i spent on reading will be something to do with reef online. doing things exciting? yes im always doing something new. exciting ones of course. split personality? everyone has that. no doubt. i think for my case, alittle more than commoners. heard complaints from my friends about my sudden change of behaviour sometimes. imagine... sleeping at 5 or 6... dragging urself to school 2 to 3 hrs later. i think i had enough since last September. However if I'm sleeping without being disturbed, normally i can sleep for 6-7 hrs. sometime even more. any good ideas? dont want to spend time dealing with psychiatrist. dealed with one during my NS enlistment during 2nd medical checkup. I told them about my problems of sleepless nights, they gave ###### and bull stories. maybe. i need medication. but i wish to avoid that. comments? once again... thank you. greatly appreciated. i bet this topic will serve well for those who have troubles sleeping sometimes or long term.

SRC Member flying carpet Posted March 29, 2005 SRC Member Share Posted March 29, 2005 bro I think and I'm saying that I think you might kena the sleeping sydromme (sorry dun know how to spell it out) where by you have trouble sleeping and your body will only sleeps when it wants. Consult a doctor before it gets worst. They may give you sleeping pills but it may adjust the way your system works. Well good luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
