Not such a good idea in my ever so humble opinion. I am sure there are other things you could do . . .

I guess I'm lucky in that respect. I usually have little or no trouble falling asleep. But if I know I have to be up super early for some reason, sometimes I get so worried about sleeping through the alarm that I have trouble falling asleep. That's not very often though, thank God.

Hehehe, that happens to me, too, on occasion, Teri. Fortunately, it doesn't happen often

Sleep? This has been a mystery to me since I was a kid. Sometimes I have Insomnia for weeks on end, and then it seems all I want to do is sleep. It's weird. On average I get 4-5 hours of sleep cuz I can't fall asleep for awhile. One natural remedy that has worked is called "Valerian Root". I have GNC order it in pure liquid form and use about 100mg about an hour before I go to bed. So far, that's the only that helps me sleep without giving me that "hangover" feeling like sleeping pills do. Valerian Root os safe to mix with alcohol (within reason kids whocares

) and tastes better with tea and honey than it does straight.

My "other" natural remedy seems to help a lot too.

I took valerian root when before I took my state nursing boards, believe me it helped! I was a basket case, my father in law just died and I was moving to Virginia away from my family and friends, THEN taking boards....... Ugh..... I was a mess! It really helped me with anxiety!

I've found the older I get the less sleep I need

, In my younger days, I had a roommate that could survive on @ 6 hours of sleep, I thought she was crazy!! If I didn't get 8-9 hours of sleep a night I was worthless...Not so anymore...I usually go to bed anywhere btw 11pm and 12:30 am, most of the time it's @ 12, and I get up at 5:30!!! For some reason I don't seem to need the amount of sleep I used to, Go Figure!!

It's this damn computer I tell ya!!

Last night I think I got a whopping 3 hrs of sleep....another great day of zombie land.....tomorrow, weather permitting i get to go golfing in zombie land....

SCOTTSMYMAN · 08-16-2003, 11:38 AM

I get about 6-8 hours of sleep every night. Sometimes more depending if I fall asleep watching T.V. which I seem to do alot. Now that we have a puppy it's like having a baby all over again so for the last couple of nights I've only been getting about maybe 4 hours every night.

JenRN · 08-16-2003, 12:30 PM

Your puppy is SOOOOO cute!

hotforscott · 08-16-2003, 01:06 PM

Ahhh, I just saw him, too. What a cute little puppy. I just wanted to hug him.

GoodGodGirl23 · 08-16-2003, 04:28 PM

LMAO, that's what my mother keeps telling me, that I will need less sleep as I get older...Well, I'm getting older and that hasn't happened yet
