How do you get yourself to sleep?

Question

i usually read a book before going to bed. however, it's not working tonight.

Answer 1

A glass of milk while reading a very exciting book. Why exciting? So that you keep on turning the pages until your eyes are so droopy that you can no longer bear to keep them opened... keeps your thoughs focued and a surefire way to induce sleep. Well, at least for me...

Answer 2

i close my eyes and i try not to think of anything.

Answer 3

Honestly, I jerk off!

Answer 4

I don't force myself to sleep. I surf the internet till my eyes get tired and sleepy.

Answer 5

Here are my suggestions:

* Read a  very boring book. After  reading the first page,you will surely yawn, before you finish  the second page, you are already asleep.

*It it's not working, try counting  carabao, like this: one carabao, two carabao, three carabao.....

* Count the  lines on the ceiling. If there are lizards, shift the counting to lizards. It's much  better.

* If  the floor of your bedroom is made of tiles with designs, study the lines and count how many squares, triangles, and other shapes.

* if it still not working, try hot drinks (milk/choco drinks).

* it all fails, try beer, tequila, or whatever.
