Can't Sleep!?!!??!

So what do you guys do when you are sooo stressed out...so wound up...that you can't go to sleep. You give yourself six hours to sleep and you end up staying up half of it and the other half is restless sleep.

So basically you are stressed because you have too much to do, but you can't do any of it because you are too stressed. Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh....:|

so how do you guys go about destressing and in particularly go to sleep when you are too stressed?

i listen to the radio, some crap show (most of it is) and it bores me enuf to forget about my worries/stress and makes me wanna sleep

turkey sandwich with a LARGE glass of milk

if that doesn't work, 3-4 Tylenol 3 (the ones with codiene) should help

this is pretty much how I feel... I don't know what I do really. I usually stay up late doing work so I'm tired when I fall asleep. When nothing else fails... just rub one out haha

Read boring textbooks. Works like a charm.

well...the problem is there is no time to sit and veg infront of the comp..and by night you are too burned out to actually study. And here I am on anandtech while I should be cramming useless information in my head about the gut so I can take the exam on monday and forget all about it. What is the point of all this I ask you. And we are suppose to be future doctors...dood...I scare myself.

edit: all I ever do is read boring textbooks. Go ahead ask me something about the body...I can tell you the freaking names of the layers of cells that make up the top of your skin...who could have thought you could take a thing and name it fifty different things in fifty different places of the body even though it is the same thing.

You have to figure out some way to lie down and get your mind off of whatever stresses the hell out of you. Just make yourself think of something non-stressfull and if your mind tries to wander back, force yourself back on track. Then you fall asleep.

I can't remember when was the last time I lied on my bed for more than 30mins and still couldn't sleep. wait till you are really tired, then go to bed and fall asleep in 1 min
