Thread: Could not sleep last night

I'm 15 and last night I was unable to fall asleep.

I watched the time fly by on my clock.

Im not even tired!


Is there something wrong with me? And what should i tell my parents?(They will notice how grumpy I am in the morning.)

Hello fellow insomniac. Don't be afraid for I suffer the same fate as you, hohoho.
Mind telling me your daily activities, your schedule in a week, so it'll be easier for us to help you?

If you took a nap during the day, even a short one, it may have contributed to the lack of sleep you got. You might also have eaten something with lots of carbohydrates or caffeine.

Sometimes people just have sleepless nights and there's nothing they can do about it. If you have just one every once in a while, I don't think it's a big deal.

If you find that you can't sleep, DON'T keep checking your clock! It just makes you anxious because you know time is passing, and makes it even harder to fall asleep. It's definitely hard to not check the time (I know from experience) but if you don't, and just relax, you'll fall asleep.

Wow, I kept checking the time! That may have contributed, It made me worried thinking "Crap I have to fall asleep NOW"

Sometimes I feel it difficult to sleep but not usual. I guess nothing is much serious cuz you just can not sleep one night. If this situation keeps in long time, you should tell your parents and visit a doctor...
However, you now should keep yourself healthy. You should follow a healthy habit of sleeping and eating as well. Do not take short naps during the day...
Do not worry too much

Turned out to be my mattress, got a noveform topper. Problem solved.


Thanks for all your help guys.
