Yikes!!):<br />Possible bedtime snack: half a turkey sandwich, maybe with a glass of milk? <br />No screen time (TV, 'puter, e-reader, etc) for 30-40 min before bedtime. And the cell stays in another room.<br />Have the room a little cool.<br />Do some directed meditation if you can't get to sleep---get in a comfy position, close eyes, think about your favorite place...in detail...see the waves come on the beach, smell the smells, hear the birds singing, feel the sun on your face...you get the idea. Just keep expanding the picture. One of my favorites is to write a novel in my head, just keep adding more to the story until next thing I know the alarm is going off. Or the cat is crying, or I have to get up and pee...<br /><br />If all you can focus on is what you have to do tomorrow, get up, write it down and go back to bed. Now it is off your mind, you wont forget stuff. So you can relax.<br /><br />Might help ward off nightmares in the future.<br /><br />Hanging nurse's cap back up.Suzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07117433684554337583noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7684531976778247960.post-83128303804858536782018-04-04T11:52:12.630-07:002018-04-04T11:52:12.630-07:00I won't take meds to sleep, I have this preter...I won't take meds to sleep, I have this preternatural fear of sleeping through something dreadful if I am on medication of any kind.<br /><br />Unreasonable?

I never remember mine, at least not so vividly. Dreams aren't anything more than a vivid imagination while asleep however. Then again, I wouldn't want to analyze any dream, much less this one, but I will play armchair physician and recommend some Tylenol PM or similar. Might force some sleep that is a little more stable.
