corporate_casual answered Sunday August 15 2004, 5:07 pm: Ah, the summer sleep schedule. Try to start waking up a little earlier so that you'll be more tired when bedtime comes. You could also take some Tylenol PM around the time you want to go to bed, it helps me get to sleep. [ corporate_casual's advice column | Ask corporate_casual A Question ]
xo_dream answered Tuesday August 3 2004, 6:39 pm: It's because you're used to staying up so late. Start waking up earlier and trying to go to bed earlier, and your body will eventually get used to a different time. [ xo_dream's advice column | Ask xo_dream A Question ]

Sporkster answered Friday July 30 2004, 2:27 pm: Try taking a warm bubble bath right before you go to bed. If you still can't sleep try reading a boring book like... an old English school book. Another thing you could do is listen to a classical music CD. Hope this helps! <3 Sporkster [ Sporkster's advice column | Ask Sporkster A Question ]

HyperactiveMiss answered Friday July 30 2004, 5:28 am: I'm even worse than that. I don't go to sleep until 5-7 AM! I stay awake because of choice though. If you'd like to sleep earlier I have some suggestions that might help you.
1. Stay up for a whole day if you can. If you can't, I'd try to stay awake for as long as you can, taking a quick nap, and waking up. After a day of no sleep, you'll be awfully tired. Wait until the time you'd like to go to sleep (Like 10 PM or something) and then sleep. You'll sleep like a log and you'll be back on track!
2. Maybe you can't sleep earlier because you're on the computer. When I'm on the computer, I can be on for hours and not feel at all sleepy. You should probably limit yourself from the computer.
3. If you're laying in bed and you can't sleep, maybe it's because you have too much on your mind. If that's the case, take a notepad, and write your thoughts down. Clear your head. In the morning you can go back to those ideas later.
4. Listening to classical or boring music might help.
5. When you're trying to sleep, don't think about anything. Just clear your mind and concentrate on your breathing.
FernGully answered Friday July 30 2004, 5:09 am: Its because you've gotten your body accustomed to sleeping at 3 in the morning every night. You need to turn yourself around. I do this by staying up a full two days without sleep and sleeping early on the second evening. Its really difficult to do because sometimes you just end up falling asleep as soon as you sit down. It is also not healthy.
Instead, why not try going to sleep slightly earlier each night, or staying off the computer a few hours before you want to go to sleep. I find that being on the computer for a long period of time makes me feel tired, but not actually be able to sleep.
If you find that you can't sleep, do not go on the computer. Just lie there in bed and think about things, but don't think about trying to fall asleep. If you think about trying to fall asleep you will never fall asleep. [ FernGully's advice column | Ask FernGully A Question ]
