How to fall asleep?

[Swaze]

I have been having problems sleeping these days. I sleep about 2-4 hours every night. I'm really tired in the morning and I can't focus and daze off when I'm in class. I have to resort to naps to not feel tired, and oddly enough I can sleep very easily during the day.

My sleeping schedule has always been bad, but even when I don't nap in mid-day, I can't fall asleep during the night.

Does anyone have suggestions on how to fall asleep?

I have the exact same problem as you I just can't get myself to sleep properly unless I've been awake for 24+ hours or I smoke weed (I do not suggest this)

The one thing that has been working for me is going to the gym as soon go through a 1-2 hour workout by the time I get home I pass.

Another solution I've done before is not sleep the entire night then stay awake all through the day until around 10-11pm then go to sleep to get me back on track.

I usually can sleep better with music on or I just fall alsleep watching videos. Also some people fall alsleep after meals maybe that will work?

I injured my back playing football, so I can't workout anymore. I'm going to try to not sleep for 24 hours and see if I can fall asleep early the next day.

if you are online (assuming here) then your brain may be processing everything still, ive had the same problem with myself most of my life - Its no different to being hot/cold, what do you do when you're like that? Ofcourse do you the complete other way.


The exact same goes with your diet/caffine intakes.

Avoid excessive lighting and using devices such as laptop, phone etc before bed. The artificial light they provide can fuck with your body clock which in turn can ruin your sleeping pattern.

Also, keep the time you go to sleep relatively constant. If it gets to sporadic you may have trouble sleeping.

Cardio is an option

If it's an option, smoke a fat j before sleeping. A little costly, but I guarantee it'll do the trick.

You know what just relized this too.... besides my job I remember I was forced to stop taking preworkout for certain reasons and after about 2 days I slept amazing.

thinking about it that has to be my problem. I don't cycle preworkout as it says to do. I have pretty much used it every day except sundays for almost 3 years now.

There is a lot of factors that contribute to lack of sleep. Is where you sleep comfortable? Is your room clean? All these little things can make a difference.

Indica weed or legal relaxing herbs

Try drinking booze before sleep, always gets me sleepy

 

[ROUGE TEARZ]

I don't drink. Yeah beds newer and comfy. Wife is clean freak so everything is always pretty clean

What pre workout do you take? Do you still find it effective despite not cycling it? Have you had to up the dosage?

About an hour and a half before bed I have a routine that gets me pretty sleepy. I'll turn off my monitor and dim the lights. Take a shower, change into pj's, go downstairs and make a hot chocolate or something. Go and lock all the doors. Sometimes I'll come back up and read in bed for a little.

By the time I'm done my body knows its time for bed, and I don't have a problem falling asleep. Sometimes I'll smoke a nice indica before bed but that's if you smoke weed.

I started with No explode preworkout. The scoops are huge so I stopped at 2 scoops after that I felt nothing for a long time because of tolerance. Switched to an off band then found C4 which was insane at first. I stuck with that for about a year. The scoops went from 2 to taking 5 to feel anything again. My friend one day no balls'do me to take 6 so I did. I felt a pump but also felt retarded and so focus I would just chill in front of the mirror and space out. Right after that I cut down to 2 scoops and within a week went back to 4.5 scoops.

I needed to change to something so I bought MP assault pre workout. Used it for like a week I felt a good pump and started off at the recommended scoop. After that I recently decided to hit up the GNC and see what their strongest thing they have is. The guy showed me dr Hyde preworkout. This stuff is insane I still haven't had to even think about raising my tolerance because one scoop is just beyond crazy.

Smoke a j, defiantly.

I don't smoke usually, but I'm going to try smoking before bed and see if it helps.

I always use my laptop before going to bed, so I tried to not use my laptop and I swear I ended up laying down awake for almost 2 hours.

Have you tried listening to music at all (soft music, jazz/classical if you like it). That always seems to help me.

Also a workout 4-5 hours before I am set to go to bed helps
