How do you get to sleep?
 

Well? Do you have those nights when you get into bed all nice and cozy, and maybe you watch TV for a while then you roll over and close your eyes and after about 10 minutes realise you're not sleeping? Or do you only need your head to touch the pillow before you doze off into deep coma-like sleep?

I usually read, or browse tibb on my phone, I have to be really tired before I get to sleep, find it hard to switch off.

I always read for a bit then fall into a deep, seamless, coma-like sleep. Nothing wakes me... I think I could sleep through an earthquake

I close my eyes.

I jest... erm, I struggle sleeping tbh, it takes me ages to fall asleep, I usually go with a hot chocolate and some TV or the radio.

I was browsing the internet from midnight yesterday and planned to go to sleep at 2 but ended up finally dozing off at 5.30. :bored:

idk it's so difficult to get to sleep when the light comes through your curtains and the birds start chirping :suspect:

Wank.

Usually listen to the radio and fall asleep.

Normally just have the radio on listening to 5 Live or talksport and gradually just doze off

:laugh2:

With great difficulty.

Camomile tea. Its great for relaxing me so I can sleep.

I usually read the news, browse the web etc. on my iPod until I'm shattered

Idk i just close my eyes and always end up falling asleep straight away
i don't go to bed unless i am SO tired, so i never have problems x

I always read before I go to bed and failing that I listen to some relaxing music.

The moment my head hits the pillow I am asleep really quickly. Usually I don't wake at all for at least 6 hours after that.

Takes me ages to get asleep. Even if am proper knackered it still takes at least half an hour

I read before I fall asleep, unless I'm too tired to concentrate on the book.

When i'm having trouble sleeping, i've found that thinking about cartoons usually works.

I close my eyes and snuggle myself into a really comfortable position and start thinking about a cartoon, like the smurfs, or alvin and the chipmunks or something cute and colorful like that, and then i try to make up a story for the characters, and then usually i just fall asleep as the story is going on.

It sounds crazy, but it almost always works.
