Sleeping

Great stuff! I personally had a horrific sleeping cycle. Sometimes I would go to bed at 4 am, next day at 7am, a few days later at 12pm, pretty crazy. However, when I started volunteering at 9 am every day for about a month at a food bank, this was when I started to be able to reset my bio clock back to normal.

First few days was very tough, since I was sleepy/droggy. But after about a week, I was able to go to bed at around midnight and wake up at 7 am consistently. I was moving boxes of foods/cans around so I got good exercise, and I also didn't take any naps.

ice cream is not great food

No, but that's food that will make you sleep better I think. this is the kinda food you want!!

Nice read!

My sleep really sucks lately and I definately are doing a lot of things different from this list. I should fix some I guess Thnx!

Nice.

get laid before u sleep, always helps me

good post
I always had sleeping problems
I basically sleep at 7am everyday and wake up 2~3pm, and feel like shit the rest of the day
once I stayed awake for 52h trying to recover my sleeping schedule but didn't work

i feel much better after sleeping 10-12 hours in a night. 8 hours is ok, less than that is terrible!

Looks i'm like doing everything wrong lol, got to make some changes.

I think I read that more sleep is good for you if you're doing a lot of physical stuff. Train a lot, work absurd amounts so forth.

nice post

why is sleeping on your stomach shit?

Didn't know about milk before bed... oO But yeah, that pretty much sums it up. You can also eat "vegetarian" on evening to help the sleep and at the same time having a good diet.
It's never good to have our stomach working hard before sleeping, even worse when you're sleeping (Unless you're eating raclette after a very long snowboard session ! )

Thanks for the reminder !

Edit : oh and "* Avoid sleeping on your stomach, it's shit." >> What ? For real ? Can't sleep otherwise
Can sleep on side but the problem is my elbows. Can't position them right before hurting my belly... So it never last long.
I really can't sleep on my back unless i'm little or more drunk...

When i sleep on my back i have the worst nightmares , dont know why that is though

hugging my female ok?

me too! I often get sleep paralysis/hypnangogic hallucinations when I sleep on my back.. so I avoid it

- Keep the room dark

* Avoid any kind of light, pull curtains across the blinds, LED clocks, computer lights so forth. Also really hard to go back to sleep if exposed to bright light.



This im not sure about at all. I slept with dark blinds / dark room my whole life and i've become an extremely sensitive sleeper, any form or noise, light, or presense will instantly wake me up.
However, I have friends who have always slept in unfavorable conditions - and they become adapt at sleeping in all sorts of conditions and getting rest when otherwise the environment would keep them awake.
