When you can't sleep
Jump to: Newest in thread
Get up. Go to a different room. Have a glass of milk. Do not turn on the lights or use my phone or change the environment in anyway. I sit in the dark and have a drink and let my mind drift and then, a while later go back to bed.
I’ve suffered with insomnia most of my adult life and this is the only thing that helps me when I can’t fall asleep. |

I was given some advice recently that often works.
Turn everything off lights, phone ect.
Sit in the dark quite lounge for 15/20 minutes then go straight to bed, don't look at your phone, turn the radio on just get into bed a close your eyes. |

If I (Luke) really can't sleep but I'm tired or it's at a time of night when I would normally be asleep, I use the metronome app I have on my phone.
I get it ticking quietly once a second. Then I concentrate on the ticking. I might count the ticks (like counting sheep) and visualise the numbers. That helps drown out the thoughts from my inner voice that keep me awake and because it's monotonous and not stimulating I drop off. |

"What do you do?
