I was at 260, 5'11" when I was diagnosed with sleep apnea. Once I got below 225 it pretty much disappeared. Creeping back up to 230 now and it's coming back a wee bit.

I found a new technique to help me fall asleep faster. Replay the day backward from the moment you get into bed, kind of like a movie playing backwards. Remember all the things you did, places you did, things you ate. For me, I found that I fell asleep like this very quickly.

here's a method to use to fall asleep fast
begin with concentrating on an object/person/activity whatever for a while and try to concentrate on only that thing, then when thoughts about other things start coming in observe them...
after a while you'll start seeing some "green" light don't know what to call it like things sparking in the blackness then you relax some more, if you're still awake try to pulse your heartbeat with your brain and you'll be sleeping before you know it
and when you wake up your eyes feel very refreshed, i don't know why this works but it does
main issue you stay up is because you're too tense or have some boggling thought in your mind, hope this helped

i've recently have had episodes of insomnia... its never happened to me before and i'm getting shit scared.
the first episode was about 2 weeks ago, the night before avicii and i was too excited and couldn't fall asleep. Fine, excitement kept me awake, then 2 weeks after i've slept fine. However, last night I wasn't able to fall asleep at all. I was tired, but i just kept rolling around in bed until the next morning when i had to get to work. Before i slept i watched an episode of breaking bad (i always watch an episode of a series before i sleep, and it helped me fall asleep a lot quicker) but then at the same time i was constantly texting this chick. After i stopped texting her i tried to fall asleep and couldn't.
After work i was tired, and the plan was to get home and nap for a few hours before heading out at night again.
Couldn't fall asleep again even though i was tired.
any help guys? I really don't want to resort to taking sleeping pills or melatonin to sleep.
p.s, on most nights, i blaze with my buddies before heading home. what's happening? does summer have to do with anything ???  | |

Usually I think that thinking about too many things at once, worrying about what's happening the next day or just being excited over something that will make you think about it over and over will just keep you awake. I usually listen to some music while I go to sleep, helps me pass out a lot faster especially if I have work the next morning
