I couldn’t really sleep the night before, so I decided it’s best to do something productive with my time. At the same I was always doing something to fall asleep, as well. I began reading some of my book, that helped a bit, but it still wasn’t enough. I began writing in my journal, because I thought maybe I was feeling a bit too stressed out about things. I started thinking about some writing ideas. After I released my thoughts, I just laid there, trying not to think about anything for a couple of minutes.
That didn’t work, so I put on my favourite show, Grey’s Anatomy. That is my comfort show, I must have watched it a million times already. And that seemed to do the trick.
Whenever I can’t fall asleep, I will try to do something productive with my time, instead of just laying there, tossing and turning in my bed. If that doesn’t work, I will try to resort into watching a show, or a movie to help me fall asleep. Or vow to myself to make an evening routine.
Really when i feel asleep I also read book..

Yeah, I’m sometimes like that, but sometimes a good book can keep me up.

This is really helpful. When I can’t sleep it never helps to keep trying to force it. Doing a relaxing activity is a great idea.

I used to turn on the TV if I woke up in the middle of the night and couldn’t go back to sleep, but it made me want to stay up even more. I’m still trying to find a solution to this problem!

Yes, me, too. I remember when I was younger, my mom said if I couldn’t fall asleep I could watch some TV to help me. I would try to find a boring documentary to help me fall asleep. When I was seven, I didn’t really find documentaries fairly interesting like I do now.

Documentaries are cool, I especially enjoy music documentaries. What about you?

Music documentaries are fun. But I also like seeing athletes’ documentaries, sometime true crime documentaries, and nature.

Oh athlete documentaries are cool too. Oh the footage in nature documentaries are quite impressive. You get to see the animals more up and close.

I agree! Some athletes have a lot of interesting stories. Some of them experience a lot of loss, but they triumph pass those things to become miraculous athletes.
