Not always easy, I know, but it helps if you can 'train' your body into a schedule. I'd recommend you stop working on the computer at least an hour before retiring. The things tend to over-stimulate the brain which makes it hard to rest.

The experts counsel against computers since they seem to excite the brain so when I can resist the call of the Web I flip through uniform books, read or fiddle with my toys or even paint fir a while when my room is setup for it then head back to bed. Verrrrrry rarely I have put a favorite old movie on and drifted off to sleep on the couch. Nothing puts me to sleep like a favorite old movie.<br /><br />Enjoy your SaturdayRoss Mac rmacfa@gmail.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04053555991679802013noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4798056059089761235.post-46461273651316018382014-12-13T09:46:54.543+00:002014-12-13T09:46:54.543+00:00This sounds very familiar.

My solution is to get up, turn on my computer, and either surf the 'net or write. The lack of sleep is something that I have learned to cope with, but lying in bed unable to sleep just drives me up the wall!<br /><br />I hope that this phase passes as soon as possible. In the meantime, enjoy your weekend.<br /><br />All the best,<br /><br />BobRobert (Bob) Corderyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13109130990434792266noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4798056059089761235.post-72539769977261619452014-12-13T08:08:10.442+00:002014-12-13T08:08:10.442+00:00I have phases where I wake up at 3-4am, worrying a...I have phases where I wake up at 3-4am, worrying about things. I have taken to actually getting up - I much about on the internet for half an hour or so, but have in the past painted figures for a little bit. The one thing assured not to send me back to sleep, even if only for half an hour, is staying in bed until the alarm goes off.Kaptain Koboldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17082772546044655044noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4798056059089761235.post-31811223031868702272014-12-13T08:05:25.720+00:002014-12-13T08:05:25.720+00:00A good start.
