It happens to me too. Its a bit of paranoia in a way, you are trying so hard to fall asleep that when you are right about to fall asleep you startle yourself out of it. Try to relax more. Also the best way to fall asleep is to try to stay awake. Keep that in mind next time you go to bed, if all else fails try to count your ventian blinds, very boring and it will make you tired rally quick since its all so blurry in the the dark you will continue to loose count before your halfway done and have to start over. PS dont sleep with your face in the pillow. Reduce your caffeine intake if you have one and the best way to fall asleep is smoke a nice fat blunt.

if you want to lay off the substances one by one, it is recomended to stay off each one for 4 days at a time to get it out of your system. or so i hear.

anyway, what you described is creepy.

and i agree fully with eyesofexstacy that you should smoke pot.

price for a 20 of weed = $20
price for a Vicodn = $ free from docter
sleeping the entire night = priceless


get some weed and muscle relaxers it helps i have the same problem

have sex every night before bed, that should fix the problem


or masturbate if all else fails, that usually fixes anything keeping me awake

You should take vicodin for sleep problems it a pain killer, a pretty strong one and taking them over a period of time will cause ulcers and stomache problems etc. I would recommend tylenol PM if you were to take anything or tell your doctor to prescribe ambien. If your doctor is cool he will probably call it in for you with out you having to go to his office and be charged for a visit. Ambien is a mild sleep aid, it comes in as little as 5mg, try smaller doses and see if they work before taking the 20mg ones. This lowers the risk of having stomache problems in the future. Yea sex is good too as others mentioned.

BTW Valerian root is a legal and herbal muscle relaxer and you can get it at a vitamin store. Aslo dont know if you have tried this but get some sleepy time chamomile tea, that helps relax you a bit as well if you are a tea drinker. Lavender also assists in sleep so try some aromatherapy candles or something for your room.

Good Luck and I hope this helps

ohhh.... yeah if you really cant solve it yourself i suppose that would be a good idea.

I sometimes experience what you've mentioned. It would usually happen if I'm trying to fall asleep on my back. It would only happen 2-3 times at most. Now I usually go to sleep on my side/stomach and the occurences have decreased (in fact, can't remember the last time I experienced it).

Right now I work full time and go to school 4 times a week at night, so being tired and falling asleep within seconds isn't a problem.

Maybe a textbook will make ya sleepy?
(I know I'd fall asleep within 5 pages of some of my books)

Yea I dont sleep on my back anymore, its just uncomfortable for me. I prefer sleeping on my stomache or side as well. Actually I also noticed that ever since my boyfriend moved in a lil over a year ago I sleep ALOT better althogether. I assume its confort knowing that someone is there with you. And snuggly too
