Insomnia has been part of my life longer than i can recall. Reading is one way. it pulls me from my active mind and stops the 'hamsters' is the easiest way to discribe it.

The warm drink is crap, never worked for me. A super hot bath will thou- with lavender.

The worst invention has to be smart phones or phones with internet- i wake up at 2 or 3 am.. grab the phone to browse.. hours later im still awake.

Swimming does help though. So does a good shoulder or back massage on the bed from my lover. Just enough to relax my mind to where I fall asleep. I do have other factors that affects my sleep such as GERD (Acid Reflux). It doesn't keep me awake but rather wake me up in the middle of the night. Whatever sleep I didn't get at night I often get it throughout the day on the couch. If I have time.

The reason I stay up at night is because I do my best thinking when I'm sleep deprived and it's just natural for me,night time is the best and day is just too much to take in so I sleep through most of it, though these days I get up at 10.

When I was young my insomnia was worse so I used to be up all night exercising to wear myself out before sleep but I'd end up going to bed at 4

I heard that Aqua's don't sleep well at night. Due to the constant thought processes. But I wonder what would it for for you to go to sleep?
Physically tiring myself out.

I can't watch a movie, read a book, or do anything. I get too involved so I literally have to get to the point where I'm almost exhausted. In saying that I'm pretty sure I've functioned on 10 hours sleep for the past week... I should be crashing soon 😛
