What helps you sleep?

[Yazou]

Does warm milk really work?

[amalgamate]

i'd avoid that... discolors your teeth


how bout a good cry?

[Felicity]

oooo a good cry works so well for me amalgamate, though a tip for the winter, make sure your hands and feet are warm, have a bath or simply run them under a hot tap, otherwise i think it is impossible to sleep! Or stick a dog in the bed and jam ur feet on them to try and warm up that way. (*ooo all my trade secrets*)

lol @ 'stick a dog in the bed'

I'd prefer a (*clean*) cat ... or my nephew

A book ? usually it does it for me . Sometimes i read a couple of pages , but reading really helps .
I even try (silly me ) to count sheep like some people do in stories , it did not help .

i haven't forced myself to sleep early in a long time... but back in the day when i used to... a nice book would knock me out... and oh yeah, i'd blast the space heater in my room

Thanks for the secrets Felcity. Crying won't work f me and I believe fr most men for that matter (please dn start a thread here). I tried hot showers; I will try a hot bath and see. The dog idea, I am not sure, but I have a rotten kitten who uses me to sleep rather than me using him.
