How long does it take you to fall asleep?

[Doyle]

< 3 minutes.

You hear it all of the time but I think its because its true. Don't do anything in bed but sleep and fug. Get the TV out of the bedroom, don't listen to music, don't read, don't do anything that would get your mind & body acclimated to doing anything but sleeping when you lay down.

Also

No caffeine after 6pm

No exercise within an hour of going to bed

No video games within an hour of going to bed

Go easy on the booze

A couple of things that can help without drugs

A small bowl of ice cream can help lower your body temp and tell your body its sleepy time.

Yogi brand bedtime tea is as good as an Ambien for me

I agree with all of this but the alcohol part. Hit it heavy and sleep well.

[Kettle]

i wouldn't say hit it heavy. i have one or two beers each night though. finishing the last one about an hour before heading to bed.

Depends:

On Heron - immediately whether I want to or not

On Meth - Who needs sleep?

[The Saltman]

if i cant sleep I pull a jase and im out in a millisecond.

[Zcustom]

Also I can eat or drink just about anything for dinner and fall asleep fast.

I got a soda after the gig last night for caffeination purposes and was out like a light when I hit the bed.

So when you have sex with large wading birds it immediately puts you to sleep? Maybe I should look into that....

[Dpantherman]

I think I fell asleep typing that

[hepcat]

Alone - anywhere from 5-20 minutes depending on how tired I am

With someone - immediately to never

I actually have a really hard time getting restful sleep with someone else in the same bed as me...

[The Faceless]

I've been having an extremely rough going lately in regards to sleeping. I haven't been able to go to sleep till the crack of dawn the last couple weeks. Thank god it's my day off, because it's almost 3 in the afternoon and I just now woke up:(

[Wither]

Usually I will have my laptop at the end of the bed and read stuff on Wikipedia (lol) and I'll get sleepy within 30 minutes. If I'm actually tired (as opposed to just sleepy - I feel there is a difference) it will be in under 3 minutes, if not under a minute.

[DC Amp]

about 5-10 at the most if I'm alone 15-20 if the wife in there. I too sleep better alone.
