I just normally have 6 bag of my volcano and a couple bong hoots and I have no issues sleeping. Fap before to get that over with. Or maybe a hot bath as well could help.

Sleeping drunk reduces the QUALITY of your sleep

warm milk sweetened with some honey. helps skin and soothes you ;]

i like to put on family guy DVDs as background noise, and fall asleep on the couch. (any show that you like, but have seen far too many times to really need to pay attention will work).

I go driving for a bit, hit up timmy ho's for a cup of tea.

I love driving at 3am, being the only car on the road is kinda cool.

fap and use the jizz to cover your eyes. once it dries your eyes will be forcibly closed, and you will have no choice but to sleep.

I usually just play guitar or read a book. I try to stay away from TV/computer cause I find it just wakes me up. Although, sometimes putting on a slow movie helps :p

like someone else said earlier, i listen to sports talk on cknw, then coast to coast AM on cknw... really good show on until 5AM...

I play on my phone mostly while listning to the radio till i sleep.

i do the exact same, if that doesnt work i usually make myself something to eat, like a bowl of noodles and get myself into food coma then sleep

when i can't sleep i usually get up, make a bowl of instant noodles or something and eat til my stomach is round and bulging and then when i hop back into bed i fall asleep right away

another tip - if you smoke, don't smoke an hour or so before you intend to go to bed. been known to cause insomnia and restlessness for some people. but on the same token, i'm sure some people can't sleep until they've had one

Haha word, I hate sleeping after a j. I think it's a waste of the high, I wanna feel it then sleep on the burnout. Do something enjoying while high to get it over with.

1. fap - if it doesn't work, hey, it was still pretty fun
2. Watch a movie you really like, which you watch often, but always only watch bits of, because you already know it inside out - ie with Forrest Gump or Goodfellas, I can never watch more than 15 minutes at a time anymore
3. Go eat all you can eat sushi, followed by cheesecake for dessert lol - you'll wake up bloated and shitting your pants, but hey, you'll also wake up from a nice, long sleep hahaha

down a can of four loko.

another thing you can try is when you're in bed, turn to one side then sleep.
i always face the ceiling when i lie down and can't sleep. once i turn towards the wall or something, i tend to pass out faster.

Surf the net and try to make my eyes tired from reading stuff.

G-spec 11-21-2010 02:35 PM

go to your local London Drugs and get a bottle of Melatonin, toss like 5 in your mouth(recommended dosage is I think 2) and let them dissolve under your tongue, if your eye lids don't start feeling heavy within 15 minutes you're a fckin champ.


I'm 6'1 and 190 lbs, 5 of them works well for me, try 3 at first see how it goes.

Gerbs 11-21-2010 02:43 PM

Reading makes you tired try reading a magazine or a lame book

Exercise regularly. Do you do this?

murmur 11-21-2010 05:05 PM

bucket of hot water for your feet.

I've been terrible the last few days, not able to sleep at all.

I think I'm going to turn the heat on in my room, maybe it's been a bit cold. I've noticed my feet can't warm up when I'm trying to sleep.

I use melatonin, I've run out right now. The advice above is completely wrong. You'll probably get a better effect with half of one pill than a bunch of them. I've been working nights for 6+ years.

Dosage

Studies from Massachusetts Institute of Technology have said that melatonin pills sold as supplements contain three to ten times the amount needed to produce the desirable physiologic nocturnal blood melatonin level for a more rapid sleep onset. Dosages are designed to raise melatonin levels for several hours[citation needed] to enhance quality of sleep, but some studies suggest that smaller doses (for example 0.3 mg as opposed to 3 mg) are just as effective.[88]

Large doses of melatonin can even be counterproductive: Lewy et al.[89] provide support to the "idea that too much melatonin may spill over onto the wrong zone of the melatonin phase-response curve" (PRC). In one of their blind subjects, 0.5 mg of melatonin was effective while 20 mg was not.[89]

Read all the wordings in every insurance policy you have! That'll do it ASAP!

JSALES 11-21-2010 06:00 PM

buy some melatonin, will probably knock you right out

dachinesedude 11-21-2010 06:02 PM

take some nitric oxide and hit the gym, you will have a VERY good night sleep
