Discussion What do you do when you can't sleep all night?

Sun is starting to come up and I'm still awake, definitely calling in to work today. I have a horrible stomach ache that has kept me awake all night. I've just been doing laps around the kitchen with anxiety while listening to music.

I'm sorry to hear that.

Maybe herbal tea, bananas and meditation will help - if it's very bad you probably need to see a doctor.

There was a time when i sleeped few, too few. I spent many nights reading. I remember reading one of the longest books of Harry Potter in a weekend. Starting friday's afternoon and ending at midday of Sunday. recently, i don't sleep from time to time or i awake around 4-5. PC games ar there.

Currently up at five am myself due to ear pain that might possibly be TMJ. Most of the time sleeping pill and melatonin but that isn't really working.

I find that playing music, or any form of expression like this you're attuned to, helps. It's gotten me through many nights of missing home and being unable to sleep.

Music, but not just any music, it has to be Cryo Chamber.

Taking a hot shower also helps.

I take opiates for headaches when I have them. Also paracetamol and ibuprofen.

I almost didn't sleep today because I was attacked by several mosquitoes. I will try to sleep a bit later.

I have had nights like that in the past and I do occasionally struggle to sleep. I just lie there and think about stuff and walk around the room a bit.

I couldn't get decent sleep meds but I got Seroquel. I no longer wake up every 2 hours. I sleep for a long while.

50 mg was fine...now I take 200 mg at night...it's still hard to fall asleep, but it's nothing like waking up every 2 hrs and getting up to smoke.

If one takes n they have to fully get off Seroquel first. It doesn't take long. It's an easy med to get...and I can say for certain it does fucking something.

I vape weed, it almost always helps
