    Default I'll just lay awake looking at the ceiling for a few hours then...

    Do you have trouble sleeping? I have a lot of trouble sleeping. About 4 days ago I went to bed at 1:30. I went to sleep at 3:15. This is not normal, but the only thing I can do about it is get up earlier.

    Yeah I remember once on a sunday during school, I had to go to bed at about 10:30. I got to sleep past 3:00 that night. I woke up and I felt like I just had the best sleep of my life

    Sometimes I fall asleep almost straight away and other times it can take hours

    Unless the weather is hot/humid, I'd never fall asleep.

    Comfort and association are good things to work on when sleeping. Make sure you are comfortable and relaxed before sleeping. I can never sleep when I have something on my mind, so I don't bother trying to sleep until those thoughts are cleared out.

    Right now it's uncomfortably hot for me, so I have been sneaking downstairs to the basement to sleep. Thankfully we have no tenants in the basement, and when said tenant moves in, it will be autumn/winter, and my heat problem should be gone.

    Try to avoid doing any activity on your bed except sleep (and um...that) -- that way your mind associates your bed with rest and will switch to rest mode when you get on your bed. Win.

    Some people like to drink something before sleeping. Some people need a bed time story. Some people need a stuffed animal. Find out what you like xD

    Sometimes I just fall asleep within the hour I get into bed. Not too long ago it took me hours to get to sleep, I was determined not to get out of bed, so I layed staring at the ceiling for about 5 hours.

    I haven't had trouble too much lately. I think it's because I've been doing more every day.

    Not really. I usually fall asleep within 15 minutes, but of course there have been times where I've lied awake for what felt like hours. To put it simply: It sucks. Hard.

    Nah, I'm good. When I go to bed, little can stop me from going to sleep. Maybe, because most of the time, I'm here by myself. Which is the best...

    A comfy bed really helps. Like, ridiculously so. Make it up so you feel all "aahhh relaxxx" lying in it even if you don't go to sleep. Also, use good quality bedthings, it's invaluble. It's not a miracle cure, but it helps to enjoy lying in your bed. I've had mild insomnia before, and it just sort of went on its own, although it still takes me an hour or so to drop off. It helps to think up fun stories and ADVENTURRRRES and stuff for me, also this increases the chances that I'll have a FABBY EPIC ADVENTURE DREAM :3

    Actually, comfy bed works on me a little too well, I think that's one of the reasons why I'm a pretty much anti-morning person.

    BH, you're such a slut. He'll get a restraining order soon if you're not careful.

    I dunno, scrumple, I slept pretty good on my bed in france and it was a mattress on a bunch of boards with a dumpy pillow i had to scrunch together to get my head elevated, and unless I slept with my legs spread apart, my heels touched the footboards xD I still slept pretty good on it though

    It also taught me to respect a thinner pillow. Mine felt so awesome when I got home.

    You and I are very different then: in a bed like that I'd be all "AARGH" *flail* *shift* *kick* *flail* xD
    I'd probably sleep on the sofa. I've actually done that staying in places where I don't like the beds, it's so much squishier. Maybe I'm just unaturally attracted to squishy beds. I think it's just important that you like your bed.
