I don't want to hear this.
white noise or drone ambient music
honestly i don't really have trouble sleeping though sorry everyone
In 5th grade, I left the radio on at night. Every night Donna Lewis came on the only station my radio received where we lived up near a lake. Every night the same song put me to sleep. I Love You Always Forever. Every night I fantasized that one day I would admit to my cousin my feelings for her. One day I did, but that's another story...
Obviously, music has long since stopped working. These days, I leave the window open so I can see the moon because it shines right into my room. I also have a fan on to make sure I don't overheat (it's summer). As for winter, I sleep with my blanket beside me because I don't usually need the warmth. Funny, I wake up with it covering me. And when I sleep on my side, I wake on my back.
The sound of a pindrop can wake me from my slumber, but the world crashing down around me has no such effect. WTF?
A bed.
That's weird? I'd be very interested in seeing where you normally sleep ;)Quote:

But under normal circumstances when I'm just trying to pass the time I tell myself a story. Not an established fairy tale or anything and I don't talk to myself but I just kind of make something up as I go along. I try to focus on one scene at a time and add more and more detail until it's complete and then I drift off.
The first time I slept on a bed, I thought it was weird as trout. Considering I had been sleeping in alleyways and such for as long as I could remember :pQuote:

Dude, I do this too.Quote:

She was weird but I tried it the other night and it felt pretty good!
When in bed, I take a mental walk. A few nights ago, I wandered through a cornfield at dusk. When you don't know where you're going, it's easier for instinct rather than intellect to take over and thus you more quickly enter a dream state. Granted this sometimes only works for a couple of minutes as the subtlest things can stir me. But I simply try again.
When nothing else works, I take a bendryl.
