Usually stay in bed trying to sleep .. sometimes I'll get up and pet the dogs for a bit or pop on SW for a bit, then go back.
Melatonin has been helping some in getting to sleep better and wakingbup less, as long as nothing sets the dogs off in the middle of the night.

Magnesium helps me. Sometimes sleep sounds too. I try not to use anything stimulating a hour or so before bed. Other times no matter what you do it doesnt work though.

I light a candle and read. Maybe take a bong hit and diddle. Sometimes I write or draw. I don't hate it because I love night time, it's so peaceful.

@ScreamingFox I love the night too but I'll hit that point of exhaustion where I feel like I'm dying for sleep but it just won't come. Don't always do so well at that point when it comes to the self-calming tactics.

@SpectralMourning yeah like when you have to be to work in four hours and you still don't feel tired... Then you get 45 minutes and wake up like a psycho...
At that point I just let the mania take over.

I usually just get up and play games on the computer until my brain gets tired enough to stop running in circles. 🤔 Been playing Hades II recently and it's so good. 😌

@thepeculiarpanda I need to do something like this....laying there with my thoughts just doesn't do me any favors.
thepeculiarpanda · 36-40, M
@SpectralMourning I usually give it an hour or so. If I don't feel my brain slowing down at all, I just get back up. 😂

That's when I start thinking about things too hard. Will feel self doubt creep in, so I'll uh. Relieve tension so can fall asleep

@Bexsy ...I guess doing something like breaking out the dominos and setting up cool design chains? The overthinking gets to me too. And I'll feel this weird obligation that I have to keep trying....only makes it worse of course.
@SpectralMourning yeah, dominoes. Exactly that

I toss and turn and if I know I won't fall back asleep, I get on the phone and go to SW.
