Remember when I started my blog, I was complaining about my sleep walking? Well, not I can't sleep. Seriously. It's the second day I'm ready for bet at 9~ish pm and I end up going to sleep around 2 am. And it's not just for two days. I get back from work at 12, tired as fuck, and still I can't sleep. I lay in bed counting sheep in my head, trying to breath correctly, and still I end up awake at 2 am. I have no idea why so. I mean, I even tried opening my window, play some calming music, I drank warm milk with honey.... I even tried sedatives. Nothing. Nothing helps. I was thinking maybe it's my coffee, but c'mon, I drink one cup when I wake up (right now) and then another one around 2 pm. And it's not that strong. It's 1,5 teaspoon of coffee, 2 teaspoons of sugar, half the cup of boiling water and milk. It shouldn't even be called coffee. So it can't be this, right? Right?? It annoys me so much because I wake up feeling more tired than rested and today I have to run some errands in town and then go for 12h shift. So this means I will get back at midnight and then again, on Wednesday I'll have another 12 hours to work, so I'll get like 5 or 6 hours of sleep, which is not even nearly enough. Not that we'd be busy at work, because it is not weekend, but still. Walking around doing nothing makes me more tired than running around and being occupied by something.
Anyway, I don't have much time left, maybe if I get home before my work (because I'm heading to town now), I will be able to post something more ;3
I hope you don't have such problems as me ;)
Love you, guys x
Try not to move when you lie in your bed and focus on nothing else but your breathing (try not to think of anything - and don't think that you're not thinking of anything, if that makes any sense). Do not turn over or scratch any itches that might pop up randomly - these will delay sleep paralysis (a thing that happens everytime we fall asleep so we don't act out the actions we do in our dreams (this also prevents sleepwalking)). As you go to bed, lie down in a position that you know you're most comfortable with. You could also try playing some nature sounds or binaural beats (Google this to find the best frequencies for a good night's sleep). Good luck!
ReplyDeleteHi!
DeleteI've tried all of this before, trust me. But it didn't really helped as I can't really not scratch myself if it iches! (haha, I know,I sound like an idiot) the music helps sometimes, but in that case, it didn't. Though I did found out that sleeping wihout pyjamas helps!
Anyway, thanks ;3
