Im 22 years old,Artist/ Bodybuilder,I have have Severe Insomnia, I have had it for 5 years, some times im up for 4-5 days streight, the longest ive been awake was 20 days streight.I went to a sleep clinic and here are some things I learned.
Things I have found usefull for sleeping:
Drink Ovalteen at night ,Eat salty foods at night,Plants in your room,Blow nose out at night,Comfortable sleeping clothes,Comfortable sleeping enviornment,Warm shower,Keep clean,Ballance salt and potassium,Pray to God, Ear-Plugs,Eye shades,No stimulation at nightime, No working out too late, Dont work out for 4 hours at a time- you get endorphins every time you work out so 4 hours worth of endorphins in you and you'll be up all night, Drink Milk at night- or any dairy products, *Dont take sleeping pills ive tried em all and you just become a zombie on them*,wake up at the same time every day,get plenty of sunlight, to increase natural mellatonin levels turn off lights towards the night, Open window at night, Meditation, Plenty of sex if your a guy- you tend not to sleep well when u dont have sex,*Dont stay in the house all day-some people need to be around other people and interact with people in order to sleep well, make a sleep log of how much u slept. (I use to sleep 2 days out of 7) (now I sleep 5 days out of 7)
