When it's 04.30 and you're having trouble sleeping, what do you usually do?

Masturbate, I get horny when freakishly tired but still awake.

I take the dogs for a walk, then I go to bed. I usually get home from work about 2–2:30 and need a couple hours to wind down, so that is normal for me.

I’ll either read or turn on the tv for a little bit.

Get up and watch TV. Those home-shopping ads are a great way to get back to sleep

I listen to soothing music on my iPod.

I’ve been having a problem lately with this and what I saw online to do was to read a book. I light a few candles and read about 10 pages or so. That helps.

Books on audible- on my computer or sandisk. It doesn’t take any time. It sometimes takes me a month to get through one. I listened to The Road for days- his voice was so soothing.

Watch t.v. or go on the computer. I might make myself something small to eat too.

By the time it gets that late I usually throw in the towel and just stay up.

I’ll watch some movies or try to write but now that I share a bed then I mostly try to lay still and wait for time to shut me down. It always happens sooner than later but I have to trust and put up for awhile with wide open dry eyes and racing thoughts.

Cosmo printed this thing about imagining a sexy fantasy and that it helps you get to sleep. It works.

Light up a spliff…

Watch TV/browsing and snacking.

@Ben_Dover pass it please

If I’m awake at 4:30 AM there is something wrong. It rarely happens.

@jonsblond hahaha! promise not to bogart?

I’m agreeing with @Ben_Dover. That usually puts me to sleep. I will also watch a movie or get online and make a snack. If I’m not sleep by 4:30am, I just stay up and don’t bother. The sunrise is beautiful at that time of the morning.

What I’m doing at 2:30 a.m. CT… Fluthering.

Most probably shag or if the wife’s response is a swift elbow in the ribs….call for a paramedic!! :¬(
