I woke in the exact position I went to sleep in. I can't imaging tossing and turning, I'm there to sleep, not get exercise.. People have routines for so many things in life. Many have a morning routine that never varies. They do this and that and this every morning. But how many have a routine for sleep. Mine is rigid and it works so well I start to fall asleep before the light goes out. I've trained myself that it's sleep time, and my sleep routine works like a Pavlonian dog.. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

Consider yourself lucky, I have never slept well. Even as a kid. Even as a baby they once gave me beer in my bottle to get me to sleep. I knock pillows out of the bed. I need a very dark room. I keep looking for herbal nighttime aids. The President is a fink. |

Luck is absent here. I worked at it for years. I wear a nose strip, noise reduction muffs, watch mindless stuff on Youtube for the last 20 min, turn out the light at exactly the same time. All this routine tells my brain it's time to shut down and sleep. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

I think I looked but forget why I didn't. The President is a fink. |

Try eight alcoholic drinks and 20mg of Zolpidem. It works wonders for me. At my age a Life In Prison sentence is not much of a detrrent. |

There's a reason you don't sleep. For me it was about turning my mind off. My routine does that for me. I look forward to the routine, because I know it will work. The last thing I do is watch pictures from the past on sites like Yesterday Today. Stuff that takes no thinking. Then at exactly the same time I start getting ready to turn off the light and I'm already lucid dreaming sometimes. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

I once mixed a sleeping pill with some other kind of pill. I slept later than in years, maybe to 10. Was living with my parents and my mother asked me what on earth I took. Said she tried to wake me but no dice. When I woke up I knew I had really knocked myself out. Would have died in a fire. The President is a fink. |

AZDuffman Member since: Oct 24, 2012 Threads: 135 Posts: 18136 | Still in the first 100 nights, but I feel like I have had it forever. Some mornings as I wake I feel like a rock, totally sound in bed and relaxed. Cold enough that I do not use the cooling feature, and I have yet to use the warming one since a cool bed is a comfortable bed. Today I took the remote to the store to find out why it did not have control for the feet raise feature. The woman there remembered me. I brought the remote to be shown, not knowing that without the bed there the poor remote was confused and could not be used. Well, she takes a look and says, "They sent you the wrong remote!" Verified my name and banged on the computer a moment. Hands me a new remote, and wishes me a nice day. I was amazed. I thought she would have them send me one. It was the kind of transaction that when it was over you keep wondering the catch. Has to be a catch. No catch. I even got to keep the old remote. Only downside is I had to get my out of shape self down on the floor to unplug and replug the system to pair the remote. Too bad the footwarmer added too much to the cost to justify it.
