help getting to sleep when you aren't tired

seriously rubbing one out is the best remedy at least for me even when im home not gonna lie i sleep like a baby when the old lady doesnt wanna helkp out lmao

 

And here's a simple old remedy that doesn't need a 'script: soak your feet in warm water. The way it's been explained to me, the heat draws blood away from the brain making you sleepy. I use a large plastic tub that I keep under the bunk. I warm the water in the coffee pot and mix it with room temp water.

 

As previously mentioned, Melatonin is a good idea. Definitely helps with readjusting your sleep schedule. If you have an MP3 player or laptop and a means to download stuff, try downloading some audio books for next time. I usually try and go for light stuff, or humorous books. Just kick back, relax and most of the time you'll fall asleep no problem, I know I do.

 

Slip yourself a ruphie.
..or chloroform yourself.

 

You were right, I was out by 3pm, woke up at 12:30am wide awake!!!!!...Great ride with no yawns!!!!!!!...Drove 11hrs and I'm already parked for the night by 1pmPDT...

 

Now all you have to do is learn to do this at will repeatedly.

 

I don't like driving at night, nothing to look at but the endless white lines...

 

I find a nice warm glass of milk and a brisk walk put me over the edge.

I can relate on the night driving with you. I just can't do it anymore like I did when I was younger.

 

That's pretty much the schedule I try to run. So much less stress than trying to run during daylight hours. My day just seems to go downhill when the sun comes up and the rest of the world wakes up.

That's the whole point of running at night. Nothing to look at means nothing to be in your way and nothing to slow you down.
