I'm a really poor sleeper. After several nights not sleeping well I'll go out like a light but Ive never found a way to make me sleep on a regular basis. My daughter swears by Kalms which can be bought over the counter.

short n ugly - why are you reading Jordan? lol x

I wouldnt have milk - It makes you snotty (it stimulates your mucas membranes).

Try a nightcap ( but this can become a bad habbit)....
reading usually does me actually....

Depends on why your not sleeping actually - are you stressed about something?

100% guaranteed way to bring on those much-needed Zzzzzzzzs:

Settle down with a nice cup of Ovaltine.....switch on the spare telly in the bedroom...


Watch a few replays of Leeds Utd receiving their regular weekly hammering from the pub teams in Jokarola League 1


Most of the crowd have already nodded off by half-time so it's a doddle to get into the swing of things


Try not to wake up laughing in your sleep.

I love my sleep but at the moment I'm just not getting enough!

Driving me mad, so it is.
Woke up at 3.30 the other morning and could not get back to sleep, came on here posted some drivel and then was on MSN with another insomniac friend til nearly 7 am.
Makes me very cranky, I think J is seriously considering the mallett option for me!

Why face the inconvenience and hassle of getting out of bed and downloading youtube videos??

Ladies suffering from insomnia can swiftly rack up those Zzzzss in the comfort of their bed....thereby cosy, comfy and ready for that much needed nocturnal nodding.

Simply keep a mobile phone under your pillow and, if dreading an insomnia attack, phone "Yorkshire Smooth'n'Sizzlin Charmers" on 0800 xxx444xxxx






Ladies rendered comatose in 5 minutes or your money back!






Failing that, instead of counting sheep, which can be taxing on the mind and involves too much brain activity, read Leeds Utd Honours List......it's totally blank so you'll be blanked out in minutes!!

cant believe you lot, i am ill from insomnia, my lack of sleep has become a huge issue, i am not amused at the lack of compassion you lot of****eads show for a genuine complaint you should be ashamed of yourselves, ok wifeymaterial, if you go to your local herbalist get him to make you a compound of passiflora and valerian, take one hour before you want to sleep, works for a while till your system becomes immune but at least you`ll get some sleep xx

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^


fortunately i have now found that copious amounts of gin is a surefire way of getting over insomnia. Herbalist shmerbalist, gimme that bottle

has anyone mentioned the 'sleeping at the other end of the bed' trick yet?

apparently if you're having trouble sleeping, if you stick your pillows at the foot end of the bed and sleep that way instead you'll drop off in seconds...

As an avid Man City fan , I would have to disagree with you Tin Hat Head on using this method as a form of curing insomnia. For me personally it would cure any sign of depression but would only have me dragging my entire Man City video collection out of a dusty attic and phoning my red mates to come around as I was hosting an impromptu party.


My advice would be to go into a dark room ,undress and lie horizontally with your eyes closed. A wood framed device measuring approx 6ft in length x at least 4ft in width supported by a firm yet flexible piece of thick cushioned material covering the wood. This gives extra comfort and support thus ensuring a good nights sleep.

Also an unattractive boring partner can do wonders for curing insomnia.

Finally living a good life and cutting down on immoral/unethical practises will ease a guilty conscience which can be a hindrance to achieving a good nights sleep.

I hope these tips prove helpful. Good luck and sweet dreams

My problem is lying in bed my mind starts to process everything it can think of. Couple of things have worked for me in the past. This might sound daft but really can help for a while anyway.

Try to relax as other posters suggest, breathe evenly but not too deeply and instead of trying to blank your mind (I never can) picture either waves rolling onto a shoreline or clouds floating off through the sky. As each wave or cloud moves away from you, imagine your worries and thoughts leaving with them.

Often not sleeping is a habit we get into. This is true for me. Even when I get to sleep I know that 1 1/2 - 2 hours later I will wake up and again around every 2 hours after that. Makes no difference if I go to bed at 10pm or 2am so it's not any external noise that stirs me.

I am seriously thinking about getting something short term from the doc just to get me into a proper sleep routine -

Melatonin tablets help loads. Take one half an hour before you want to go to bed, make sure to sit in the dark after taking it.
