Are there any good sleeping techniques?!
Question: Are there any good sleeping techniques!?
I have a really hard to sleeping!. It's very embarrassing, but I'm afraid of being alone!. I sleep with my night light on, my door is always opened, and my parents are often in the living room across the hall!. I tried to help myself go to sleep by bringing my cat with me, but she runs away, stuffed animals don't work for me!. Pills or relaxing tea doesn't help me either!. I'm mainly scared because I think about all the horror movies, even the littlest and silliest part in a scary movie freak me out!. Please help me, it has been a major issue for me!. I'd really appreciate any advice, the most effective one will get rewarded!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Well, making sure that you don't eat too much, or too little, too greasy, and what not will make you fall asleep easier!. Try drinking decaffeinated calming teas such as chamomile or other herbal teas!. (I fall asleep easier with noise, so i have a radio that i turn on)!. You could have calming sounds such as water, rain, i don't know, whatever makes you feel safe and calm!. You could try meditating, or doing yoga before you head off to bed, and try to clear your mind of any stress before you sleep!. if this is really bothering you, go to a doctor for a check, might not be anything serious, but it might help, you'll never know!.

This is going to be obvious, but stop watching horror movies before you go to bed!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
There's plenty of things you can do!. Don't be embarrassed first off, because this isn't uncommon! I can name quite a few people that I know who have exactly the same issues falling asleep!.
so here's what you do:
-If sounds soothe you, try turning on your television and falling asleep to the sounds (most tv's have a setting on them too that turn them off at a set time!.!.!. check it out)!. If you don't want to use that, try to listen to some music on some headphones!.
-Don't watch any more horror movies if you can!. I was afraid to sleep for several years because of the movie poltergeist (lol I still hate clowns) If you stop watching them, you'll slowly begin to have more positive thoughts as you fall asleep!. I promise!.
- Try talking to someone about specific things that keep you up!. If you get particular fears out on the table, Just the prospect of discussing them is comforting!. you'll find it a lot easier to fall asleep once you've talked and joked about the things that keep you awake at night!.
-If nothing else works, try to talk to a therapist about your fears!. I know it seems like the last possible thing you would want to try, but they can actually be quite beneficial, mainly because they will get you to analyze what makes you scared and why!. After doing this for a little bit, you start to realize how dumb these things keeping you awake actually are!.
-The last possible solutions would be to take melatonin before you go to sleep ( a sleeping pill but get a doctors ok first!!!) or!.!.!. keep a baseball bat next to your bed so you can grab it if its needed!. but like I said!.!.!. these are the last possible solutions!.!.!. try only if everything else fails!.
hope I helped you somewhat!. Good luck sleeping!Www@Answer-Health@Com
