Squeeze lemon juice into a cup and then rub the lemon juice on my gums - The citrus causes me to yawn so much I fall asleep.

Drink a cup of milk (normally chocolate milk for me). There’s an ingredient inside milk that’s supposed to help you fall asleep.

If I CAN sleep, I just do so. Maybe check the title of this thread again? :grin:

Don’t stress yourself with thoughts like “If I don’t fall asleep soon, I will be tired tomorrow.” and don’t look at the clock all the time. Try to get comfy and relaxed, think of nice things. If you still cannot sleep for more than an hour, get up and do something, if you stay in bed, your muscles will start to hurt. Just try again when you feel sleepy.

I literally write in my head😂 I had OCD and it was super hard for me to sleep because of it so I just sometimes imagined scenes in my head and it helped me stop the ocd thoughts. It’s really helpful

I usualy go to Spotify and pick some music list with calming music and just play it. It usually helps me. Sometimes it doesn’t, then I just roll around in bed
