How can I get to sleep!
Question: How can I get to sleep
I have had a really hard time getting to sleep recently and I don't know why!. My legs are always too hot or too cold and it takes me hours after going to bed to get to sleep!. After getting to sleep I have many dreams and wake up frequently during the night!. I am always so tired!.!.!.I really just want a good night of sleep!. Anyone know any tricks!? I meditate to calm my mind some times (I have ADHD so this helps) but I still can't sleep!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
Answers:
I have a sleep disorder, and this is what i've been told by doctors!.
First, only use your bed for SLEEPING!. This means no lying in bed watching TV or movies!. Sex is ok in bed of course, but nothing but sex and sleep!.!.!.no eating, no homework, no nothing!.
Second, start a tradition before you go to bed!. For example, if you really enjoy pajamas, about 10 minutes before going to bed put on pajamas and your body will start to learn that the feel of pajamas means that it's time for bed!.
Also don't try to do anything that takes a lot of mental or physical power before sleep!. Do a wind down activity!. For example, don't try doing your homework then go to bed, or watch wrestling then go to bed!. Do something overly relaxing and then get some rest!.
When you try all of this, you need to stay in bed for a MAXIMUM of 40 min if you can't get to sleep!. Don't lay in bed for hours, you get 40 min to try to make it work, if you can't make it work, get up do something!
Good luck

I've tried this a few times and it helps:
Step 1: Have a big meal before you go to bed!. Make sure you also have some sugar with the meal!. Immediatley after, you should brush your teeth and take a shower and get ready for bed!.
Step 2: Watch a little TV or read a book in bed!.
Step 3: When you start feeling tired, close your eyes and you'll soon be falling a sleep!.
--
If this doesn't work, maybe you should talk to your doctor!. He/She might put you on a sleep medication (ex!. Abien, Lunesta, etc!.)!.
And the thing with your legs might me something called RLS or Restless Leg Syndrome!. There are medications for that also!.
Good Luck and Good Night!Www@Answer-Health@Com

Just relax!. I used to have the same thing, but what I did was I would just think about things that are going on and don't think that much about going to sleep and that will do the trick!. Good luck!!!Www@Answer-Health@Com
