<div class="IPBDescription">help me fall asleep</div> i get like 4 hours of sleep a night, it kinda sucks,
u see my roommate(i live in the dorms) snores REALLY loud and i cant fall asleep, ive tried ear plugs and smothering my self with pillow, one is not safe and i the other hurts...It also sucks in class cuz im nearly falling asleep and cant concentrate................................................
so im asking what is the best thing to put one to sleep, the slightest noise wakes me up except music or the tv, which my roomate cant sleep with, is there any thing i can take besides sleeping pills that will put me to sleep.
im going dilerious!!!!

I can also safely safe that staring at your PC/Laptop screen won't
do your eyes any good if your lacking in sleep. Is there no-where else
you can sleep? A friends dorm/room?
Usually, if you yell at them and wake them up, that works to make them stop snoring for awhile, or if you make a loud noise and try to make them move around, that helps a little too.

when I want to sleep, I just listen to the soundtrack from The Pianist....I swear, listening to piano's are incredibly relaxing...so nice....mmmmmmm
"How do you get to sleep?"
I don't have trouble sleeping: 45%
Masturbation: 30%
Other: 15%
Soothing Music: 10%
So it looks like...THAT...is your best bet. I mean, it does make you pretty tired, right?
Then again, doing that with your roomie there is pretty sick...

lol....the funny thing, it is true.
I'd try lisening to music first though.
wich ever version you have handy.
kill him or get drunk, either one of em will will fix your problems (atleast temporarily).
So true. <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->
For me, I just try to pick up Ayn Rand and I'm out like a light. It's like chloroform.
Me<---Can't stop thinking of what happens, takes me about 2 hours to sleep, normal sleeping off counter aids didn't work, had to get prescription.
Try scaring him a bit untill he stops and you get good sleep
Headphones to the TV? Get the nice kind that hook onto your ear.
Industrail noise reducers, those HUGE ear muff thingy ma jig(sarcasm), they fit quite nicely, I use with my airsoft gun when I don't use the velocity reducer and silencer while having target pratice, it REALLY kills all the noise, barely hear it. Those are quite soft too
I would not suggest using anything with a cord while you're trying to sleep...unless you want a chance of not waking up at all (turning in your sleep + cord = bad). However, if you just set a pillow over your ear you shouldn't have a problem. Pillows are fairly porous and you shouldn't really be holding it over your face anyway.
Try ear-muffs...or a headband (for your ears, usually used against cold...not a headband headband). Or drugs...apparently drugs work...as does masturbation apparently.
I wouldn't be really quick for the last one though - your roommate probably wouldn't appreciate any side-effects. I also hear - if you're male - you probably want to urinate after doing it so you don't leave residue in your urethra. Not many women I know snore, so I'd assume you've got a male roommate.
I wish to kill you for trying to make it sound so easy >:o
obviously if you are wasted both will be hard, but if you pull it off you will fall asleep quickly at night in no time
alternative is actually switching to a multiple nap schedule - it's doable but not quite natural, who knows what the longterm effects are. Not to mention inconvenient, since most people are not this way
perhaps finding another place to sleep or changing rooms/roommates is your best bet
earplugs should not hurt. If they don't work that's another matter, but read the instructions, ask people, search, practice. Don't hurt your ears tho I don't recommend losing hearing permanently just cuz of a roommate - sleep deprivation can be serious but you can fix it in much better ways if you're gonna be drastic bout it.
