Pull an all nighter, wait until the next day around 9 to 11 PM, whenever you want to go to sleep and then opt to sleep. You'll probably fall asleep right away and be back to normal. It worked for me.

I get up around 10-11 AM. Rarely will I sleep past 12. I don't have any coffee or soda during the day and I only have an chocolate ice cream bar for sugar.Aurgelmir said:
Sadly I don't game before bed. Mostly idiots on around this time of night in the games I play.Tharwen said:
Been considering the doctor, but trying whatever I can before I end up there.Silentsmoke1990 said:Classic solution of white noise with that fan approach, however your suggestion of masturbation might not be so nail on the head, studies show that unlike climax from intercourse, masturbation produces very little in the way of a natural tiredness/sleep response.Aylaine said:Try to find your sleep niche. For me, it's doing something that relaxes me before bed, then sleeping with the fan on. Stillness in the air will prevent me from sleeping normally, but the humming sound of the fan soothes me and it actually puts me to sleep faster then anything else besides my girlfriend. Just little things like that could make all the difference. Try sleeping with a fan, and before that doing a relaxing activity.
Additionally, and this is meant to be a serious recommendation, you could try masturbation. Sexual climax is extremely relaxing, at least to the people I've talked to and been with, and aside from a fan that will put me in that relaxed mood to sleep in a jiffy. You could try this as well.
I hope this helps!
alternativly Ecky, you could should the issue really get to you, see a doctor, it depends for how long this has been going on. again be very sure that there's nothing bothering you at the moment that could be causing subconcious conflict wheter it be friendship issues, coming to terms with a death in the family (even if that death was awhile ago.) parental/sibling issues (you being aware of finnancial problems of someone close to you can induce sleep problems)
if the problem persists for more than a month continiously go to your GP, keep reporting back to him (it might take several attempts to get the right doseage) until you can sleep, continiously (without waking up, rolling over back to sleep.) through the night.
Good luck.
Yeah would be nice to sleep normally sometime haha.SnipErlite said:
Depressing things keep me up at night even more haha, thanks though for the suggestion.Kaleion said:
Tried already. Stayed up both nights and had a 2 hour nap during the day after.TonyCapa said:
But waking up at a normal time, feeling awake and refreshed....EcksTeaSea said:
I think I'd be scared. I've never experienced that :O
I'd say fix a waking up time.
Fixing a bedtime is really difficult, and can lead to you becoming anxious and frustrated at not getting to sleep - especially if you're trying to step your sleep pattern out too much from the norm.
Get a big fat alarm clock, put it on the other side of the room and set it for 8am. When it goes off get up and make yourself get showered, dressed and go and get the newspaper. Then come home and stay up, read the paper, play games, whatever. It'll be a pain in the arse for a couple of days, but it'll put you into a sensible routine.

I tried Rainy Mood. It made me sleepy but not fall asleep haha.Aylaine said:Did you try a fan? It works for me, and it may sound silly but it does work for some people!
Ok theres a few things you can do.
Tire yourself, go for a run and try and stay up for 24 hours, get to the point where if you close your eyes you dose off. You may need someone to help keep you awake for this one. Then, pick a time like 4pm and go to sleep. You should wake up at 2 - 5 am and you should be alright there.
Now hopefully this can be treated with maturity but I have heard that insomnia and other sleep issues can be helped with regular masturbation. I read it in a mens health magazine and ive heard it works from some friends. I personally have not tried it but who knows.
Reading in bed helps me go to sleep. Perhaps an audiobook could help here. Just put it on, lay there and let your mind relax.
Another tip, if you want to try and have a good sleep, dont do anything all day! Taking it easy and just sitting around relaxing and doing nothing can help you get some Z's later on.
Hope that helped

If you haven't already, try engaging in some relaxing activities around your ideal bed time. At the same time, you should avoid especially stimulating activities, such as playing video games and watching television. Personally, I enjoy reading.
Avoid trying to force yourself to go to sleep. If you can't seem to fall asleep, don't continue to lie in bed. Stay up and read, fix yourself some tea, etc.
If all else fails, see a sleep specialist. There is no substitute for professional help.

Check your activity level during the day increase it for a few days and try to get asleep at a set time and wake up at a set time. Don't stay awake all day to try and go to sleep the next day. It doesn't help and will make things worse. You might get one good night of sleep but sleeping over like 9 hours just becomes unhealthy and isn't a consistent fix.
