unfwow these methods make me realize how lucky i am that i can just lay down and be sleeping within 5 minutes. that really sucks dudes

same, i always thought i had it shitty on the bad days when it takes me 15-20 minutes to pass out

if i take my contacts out and lay down in bed i dont think its ever taken me longer than half an hour to fall asleep

remedyReeroMelatonin is an OTC sleep aid that is very effective. It isn't really a drug that your body can become dependent on as it is a naturally secreted hormone.That's not right, your body will in fact stop producing melatonin if you take it for too long (usually around 2 weeks to a month), same with the majority of hormones

ya I used melatonin for a lot of 8th and 9th grade to fall asleep and it fucked me until last year when my body got back to normal. Melatonin deficiency can make ur problems 100x worse so I wouldn't recommend getting used to it

Surprised no one has suggested this. As I know it's been brought up in the past.
If you have trouble falling asleep, it's been found that doing the five knuckle shuffle can help you catch some Z's. Has to do with the chemicals released on orgasm.

(I'm no doctor, just repeating what I've heard from multiple sources).

avaiihnupdate: I just woke up so based on that it's safe to assume i slept :D Figuring I got about 9 hours so I might still try to sleep some more to get back some of what I lost but I feel 10x more sane now feelsgoodman

Turns out my muscles were super tense and I passed out while doing a stretch on the floor lol

It's significantly better to sleep that similar amount every day rather than to try to catch up on the weekends by sleeping 12 hours, for example. Catching up on sleep (to that large extent) doesn't actually help too much, unfortunately. Going to bed at the same time within around 30 min makes it a bit easier to fall asleep quickly, not to mention it's just healthier to keep a consistent sleep schedule.

You said, though, that you had trouble sleeping after being up for 36 hours, so you still might not be able to sleep consistently because of other issues.

Take benadryl. You can buy it in a pill or liquid form.

Start going to bed at the same time every night. Don't do the thing of trying to "make up sleep." Oversleeping is bad for you too.
