I am not able to sleep and stay asleep so I have turned to tylenol pm. It kills the muscle pains and helps me sleep.

I listen to my iPod (which ends up keeping me awake!) or surf the internet on clothing & shoe sites until I feel like I'm going to fall asleep.
Opinion: 1) a view, judgment, or appraisal formed in the mind about a particular matter 2) belief stronger than impression and less strong than positive knowledge
This is the internet, learn to let people have opinions. And don't be so sensitive.  8)

try sleeping pills or natural teas. they seem to help people but some people get addicted to them so be careful.

I usually get on the computer when I can't fall back to sleep, but if I really want to go back to sleep I start reading a book and it works every time.

At 2AM EST, if I am still up I get off the computer and watch some (a few minutes) TV. Then a cup of Sleepy Time tea, makes me ready for bed. With or without the radio I am off to sleep in no time. Most days I just get in bed a fall fast asleep.

I grab my phone and cruise the internet or play Words w/Friends when I can't sleep. Or, I go pee  ;) Since being pregnant, it seems like I always need to pee, so if I'm awake I might as well get it out of the way lol.

I've been suffering from insomnia for as long as I can remember....even if I do fall asleep (which is usually a miracle), I wake up about an hour later...wide awake! I usually check my emails on the pc or get on with some art work, like painting or drawing. Most mornings I see the sun come up and the birds start to chirp. Unfortunately, by about 11am I am so dog-tired, I could drop down in a heap! I am going to try the Tylenol PM as a previous member suggested.

When I can't sleep I will usually get online, maybe play a game or watch a movie if there is anything that catches my eye on TV. I really like to read so usually I'll read some news articles and tire my eyeballs until I get tired enough to sleep :)

I will either watch tv or get on my laptop, or just listen to music until I can fall back to sleep. And if I can't do that I will get on up and start getting ready for the day (depends on what time it is in the morning).
