There you go again.
Originally posted by KewpieHot chocolate or hot milk have never seemed to work for me although hot chocolate often has the desired effect on my older son.
The old pen and paper trick (write down what you need to think about the next day) also works, because then the mind will stop bothering itself about stuff which might be forgotten overnight.
Originally posted by KewpieTell that to FMF then. The things he said to GB are considered "fighting words" to many. Just like most of what he "passive-aggressively" spins out to those he doesn't like.

Originally posted by SuzianneTo have offered a "tip" that does not withstand even a moments' scrutiny and sounds very similar to swipes already used on previous occasions, suggests to me that the poster had a different agenda.

Trouble sleeping?
What are your top tips for beating the insomnia monster?
Originally posted by divegeesterSomething fatal for me ~ in terms of the threat that it poses to the hope of a good night's sleep ~ is where I let myself fall asleep a bit to early - say 9 pm or 10 pm - and then wake up or get woken up at something like midnight or 1 am. When this happens, I always find it difficult to get back to sleep, even if I am dog tired. I don't let it happen often though.
Do you never have trouble sleeping?

Originally posted by divegeesterI have found that eating cheese just before going to bed increases the chance of having nightmares - or at least disconcertingly vivid and turbulent dreams. Smoking cannabis ~ I read about this in a book once; it was a friend's book; it wasn't my book; I don't have ANY books that mention cannabis ~ often leads to really boring dreams. I also find that if I've spent too much of the day working on a spreadsheet, I have fantastically frustrating repetitive dreams about broken formulas and text in the wrong cells that disturb my sleep.
A perfectly clear conscience, perfect dreamy sleep every night and never have any nightmares. You truly are blessed.
