    1. Well as you can see, I am also a posting procrastinator

      My experience with insomnia was that many nights, I would lay in bed and some kind of inner disturbance would keep my awake. That would lead to getting stuck in sleep paralysis while awake and moving around in bed.
      What helped me was to learn how to control my breathing before bed. Also, my insomnia was wrapped up in a lot of negative feelings and thoughts. If that is the case, taking some time before bed to use your guide your intention toward positive thoughts and feelings may help.
      The medication may effect your dreams but expectations can also effect dreams. If you expect the medication to effect them, they probably will.
      Above all, trust your intuition. As you lay there at night, your mind might jump here and there. Just let it go and allow it to run around with different ideas.
      Good luck!
    2. Hey Chimpertainment!
      I apologize on how long it has taken me to return this message. Well I didn't really know there were different kinds but, mainly I just can't ever fall asleep. And when I do it's only for a very short period of time. Couple hours, 3 at the most. Ophelia told me you have experienced it yourself. I was just curious on how you dealt with it. I chose the rout of sleeping medication and wanted to hear your thoughts on that. Could it effect my LDing?

      Thanks
    3. Hey sterling,
      The professor eh? lol
      ok, well what kind of insomnia are you experiencing? Maybe just give me a run down of what happens when you experience this and how often it happens? I would say the general principles and practice of LDing will help, definitely; however, there could be other things going on. A lot of insomnia is caused by stress which LDing can very much help with. So, get back to me on the specific experiences and we will go from there.
      thanks for asking!
