Samurshy 708 August 4, 2012 Share August 4, 2012 So, since i am tired right now, I thought that whilst on the subject of sleep I would ask you forumites, do you have any bedtime rituals,? If so post what they are... that is if they are SFW... Me, I can't get to sleep unless I have my radio on and tuned into a radio station, mostly the local rock station. But I have this weird deep seeded fear that one day everyone is just going to disapear off the face of the earth and I will be the only one left. So to constantly reassure myself, I have to have something on that is live and has some person talking. The host of the rock radio station, Dr. Nick, has a great voice and a great sense of humor, so that is why I tune into the local rock station.

Chigens and Kay 3,832 August 4, 2012 Share August 4, 2012 I usually get a cup of water, lay down, and tulpaforce for about 30 minutes before I go to bed every night. Then, bam, I pass out. It's so relaxing. My signature broke Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
null1 606 August 4, 2012 Share August 4, 2012 iTunes is always playing music at a low volume. Been doing it for years, I can easily memorize a song and play it in my head while awake. I love iTunes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Juggler 345 August 4, 2012 Share August 4, 2012 I often had a problem finding a good position to sleep in. But I developed a ritual which makes me (almost) every time fall asleep immediately. I start by lying on my belly and switching the position of the head a couple of times. I mostly do this because to "stretch out" or something like that, I really don't know, it just feels good. Then I switch to lie on my left side, after that I fall asleep. I don't know why it works, bu it does. It has become sort of a ritual for me Signature made by Midnightive Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zDashiez 496 August 4, 2012 Share August 4, 2012 tulpaforce for about 30 minutes before I go to bed every night.

I don't force into sleep, I do it before sleep. Oh, I forgot to say that I turn my fan on before sleeping as well. The background noise helps put me to rest.

Solar Wind 595 August 4, 2012 Share August 4, 2012 SFW WTF does that mean? Oh well I had better not post that anyway... What I do before bed is usually a dungeoun on Wow or a battleground after that I pull the matress over me and let the darkness corrupt my thoughts... See, I'm Greed.

Quill The Pony. 175 August 4, 2012 Share August 4, 2012 (edited) I do something SFW. I don't have a ritual. Every once in a while though. I fall asleep while watching television. Edited August 4, 2012 by Scootacool SFW :) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Error 21 August 4, 2012 Share August 4, 2012 I do random crap on the computer until 3 AM and then crash, that's for weekends and school holidays. Other times I just take a sleeping pill, then crash once more. Sometimes if I'm stupid enough, I'll get some pink lemonade and add two cups of sugar to it before bed... I have no regrets...

TheEngineer 188 August 4, 2012 Share August 4, 2012 I don't really have many rituals aside from cleaning myself up in general with hygiene, but let's just say that George Takei might have a certain something to say about one of them. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u2ALsvU50wQ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrooveBroove 680 August 4, 2012 Share August 4, 2012 For me I always go to sleep playing one of my reviews. So anyone like Nostalgia Critic, Spoony, AVGN, etc i'll leave on as I go to sleep. I think I just prefer to have a little noise to go to sleep rather than complete silence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rainbow Dash Loyalty 1,275 August 4, 2012 Share August 4, 2012 I fall asleep by watching a couple of videos or shows on youtube until I feel tired or until my eyes hurt (I don't recommend watching that long xP) A good movie also helps me sleep, nothing horror or scary, just something like a family movie or comedy. ~Signature created by Chaotic Discord~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless you were joking, then I'm sorry I am tired. I'm quite boring, all I do is read for a little bit then spend ages trying to sleep.

WildCard 1,037 August 4, 2012 Share August 4, 2012 I don't have any specific ritual. I usually stay up until I get really tired, then I crash on the bed, snuggle the pillow and sleep in.

Twiliscael 3,960 August 4, 2012 Share August 4, 2012 (edited) I masturbate. Uhhhhh I definitely DON'T do that either. It doesn't help tire me out or anything...lyingapplejack.jpg In all seriousness, I really don't. Sometimes I fall asleep while eating, sometimes while watching tv, sometimes all cuddled up in bed, sometimes heaped out on the floor. Some days I fall asleep at 10 pm, sometimes at 4 am. Some days my contacts are left in, some days their not. So no, I don't really have any rituals. Edited August 4, 2012 by Twilie'Zorah I tend to take the high road, get stoned, and fly low . . .

PlunderSteed 1,252 August 4, 2012 Share August 4, 2012 MLPforums...you crazy! Some pretty interesting stuff so far. My work schedule is beyond derped, often forcing me into a 30 or even 36 hour cycle, rather than 24. This means that I'm often awake for 24 hours, then (trying to) sleep for 12. I don't really have any rituals or habits that I follow to help get to sleep. However, I do have a list of things not to do before sleeping: - Play Eve (it makes me wake up often, and/or dream about security violations, accidentally breaking expensive shit, somebody shooting at me, cramming the latest procedural changes, training the dangerously optimistic/clueless rookies, etc.) - Study anything related to work (for same reasons as above) - Have caffeine within 4 hours of sleeping (seriously, even a little bit will disrupt my sleep, even though I drink it every morning) Regards, PlunderSteed Bassist, pianist, and backing vocalist for MLP-themed metal band Draconequus. Check out our latest music video, a metal cover of "Tricks up my Sleeve" here. Bassist, pianist, and vocalist for MLP-themed alt rock band Worst Princess.
