I do like reading erotica and masturbating at the same time so that works.

Lixy, reading on the computer never makes me tired. Now if you print off some of the stories, that's a different matter entirely!

Have you tried reading in Gregorian Chant or Arabic? You may not understand the words, but perhaps the melody would make you tired.

Maybe a three night sex fest would help? (This is my personal favorite)

Okay, I'll go back to my corner.

(((Lixy)))

I also suffer with sleep disorders. I haven't been able to sleep over 4-5 hours a night since my mother died a couple of years ago. It is not uncommon for me to sleep as little as 10 hours in a week.

My home remedies used to be nyquill (sp?) cold medacine or Crown Royal but in the past few months I have started trying meletonin. Which I am able to buy a Wal-Mart so it should be available at most any retail chain store. As I understand it your body makes melatonin and this allows you to slip into a deep REM type sleep. And as fate would have it as we get older our body produces less and less of this. Here is a link with a more info about it http://www.sleeping-tips.com/natura...dies_sleep.html

This has helped me some,maybe it will work for you also.

Try half of a Unisom (for some reason, half works just fine while a whole one keeps me awake), then take your pillow and blanket to the couch (oh god, don't you hate someone snoring when you're trying to sleep??) and turn on The Weather Channel with the volume low. Works for me almost all of the time. Of course, a good "cumathon" works real well.... not just one orgasm but lots of them... I've even fallen asleep before turning the vibrator off, lol.

Reading and masturbating is how most of us got to Pixies in the first place. Be careful Lixy. People always feel as if they have to ask you about all the little square imprints on your face the next day.

Have you tried soaking your pillow in ether before going to bed?

OMGGGGGGGGG! You guys are so funny that if peeing my pants helped me to sleep....I'd be zonked now!!!

And not to mention the wealth of information on sleep aids! I'm gonna try any and all of these suggestions (one at a time) if this continues for one more night. I can literally feel the bags forming under my eyes! Also.......it now feels like I have a vice grip on my head! Mamma Mia!

Oops....I'm not even Italian!!??? LOL!

I got...on and off....about 4 hours of sleep last night and I'm a person who treasures all the sleep I can grab! Like......10 hours would be a wonderful night to me! My poor cat thinks I've left his daddy. Hubby told me Rocky gets in bed with him and circles my side as he does when I'm there.....but for a longer period of time till he finally lays down for a few minutes and then gets up and comes downstairs to find me. This is driving hubby nuts!

TY, TY, TY so much everyone! All I can think of to say here is.....this too shall pass!

I got an hour or so of sleep last night...in my actual bed......then I came down to the sofa and turned on the weather channel and kept the sound real low as suggested...and was in and out till about 4am. I think it's getting a bit better but I gotta tell ya.....now that I'm "up" for the day, I feel like I could go to bed and sleep all day. But then, I feel like that every evening till I actually lay down to do the deed......and then my eyelids won't stay shut and my brain won't shut up!

Oh well.....the weekend is here and I'll get a sleep aid if I still can't R.E.M. sleep tonight! Couldn't do it during the week cause I'm such a puss with the sleep aid hang-overs......even on half or quarter the dosage! And....after I do get a good amount of zzzzzzz's.....I'm going to get some of the suggested homeopathic remedies to take as an assisted assurance of more natural sleep!

Wanna come over tonight and do some Nytol with me (((Bardog)))??

TY for all the advice and laughs folks! I love ya!
