I'm never tired at night. How can I sleep better?

There is no one answer to this question. It really depends on the reason you are not tired. If you are not tired due to insomnia or some form of sleeping disorder, you can try different techniques but ultimately you should attempt to seek a doctor's help so they can prescribe sleep aids. It could also be due to the things around you. If you sleep in an area with a lot of noise, natural light, or unnatural light, those could also be issues. One thing that I would do to start is if you use your phone in bed, stop. Putting your phone on silent and sometimes across the room can help you because if your brain is stimulated, you are far less likely to feel tired. Another thing that may help are breathing exercises. Sometimes, you just need to go into a state of relaxation in order to help you sleep and these tend to reduce heart rate and put people into an overall relaxed state. Either way, if it is a real problem, never rule out seeking medical advice as I am not a doctor and can only tell my own personal experiences.

Build the perfect sleepfort. Take a hot bath in lavender and pine. Perhaps drink some warm tea perhaps camomille (or lavender). Make sure you have a warm cosy blanket but a cool fresh room, maybe some nice plants that raises the oxygen level. Then lie the way you are the most comfortable and if you need someone talking, make sure you got that sound going on, if you need it to be dark, maek it so, if you need a nightlight, get the cousiest one, if you enjoy music, put on the best record.

Read before you go to be and avoid looking at any screens/technology at least 30 min before you go sleep

Wake at the same time most days, eat some protein and fat for breakfast, eggs are ideal, exercise 30 minutes, and remove all electronics from the bed room.

Try reading a comic book with music at the background. It releases good hormones and I can dozed off easier.

I start by creating a schedule for myself. I make sure I'm done doing anything that takes energy/concentration about an hour before I need to go to bed. Then, I actually go through a nighttime routine--shower, set clothes out for the next day, take the dog for one last potty break, and so forth. With time, my body learned that when I start on that routine, we're getting close to bedtime.

If the problem is not getting tired at night, then the simplest answer would be to wake up earlier in the morning and try to find some activities throughout the day, that would challenge you physically or mentally. So when you get home you'd feel tired and just want to relax.

It is important to remember that insomnia, defined as the “inability to sleep”, is – like any inability – a loss of freedom. Tossing and turning in bed, with a busy mind can be very difficult. The later into the night it becomes, the more anxious you feel, as you shout to your mind you need that sleep, but nothing works. Anxiety might build when the birds chirp at 5am, with the promise of having a painful day of school/work the next morning. There are ways you can alleviate the stress. Take some times to meditate during the day, look out a window and wind down. Write problems on a piece of paper , this one especially works, as it can stops problems from circling the mind. Don't consume caffeine before 2 pm. Seek help from sleep/anxiety guides here on 7 cups.

Hi, I know that feeling very well and although a few times it feels okay, once it turns into a daily thing, it needs attention. Here are a few things I do when I am not feeling sleepy before bed - 1) Start reading a book - I read every single day and it really puts you to sleep easily. You can even go through some of the books you liked as a child to feel cozier. 2) Drink chamomile tea - One of the best ways to get that sweet drowsiness and relaxation is to help yourself with a steaming cup of chamomile tea at least 30 mins before bedtime. I also make this detox tea by boiling an inch of grated ginger and lemon juice in water and then straining it. It works the best. 3) Try not to watch or do anything which may excite you - It is very important to just slow down at this time, perhaps keep the phone away and just get yourself in a calm and quiet atmosphere. 4) ASMR - I know many would be like whaa- after reading this but I rely upon ASMR a lot and it relaxes me very quickly. You can find amazing personal attention ASMR online. 5) Try not to worry about 'not getting the sleep' - I know it is not easy and one feels restless, but if we are able to think about other stuff instead of worrying about our sleep, it will help us sleep more easily. So those were my tips and all of them have come from my own experience. You can try out any of these and I would love to hear from you if you found them useful. If the problem persists, it is better to seek professional help :) Hope you get the sweet sleep you are seeking
