Christianity: The belief that a cosmic Jewish Zombie who was his own father can make you live forever if you symbolically eat his flesh and telepathically tell him you accept him as your master, so he can remove an evil force from your soul that is present in humanity because a rib-woman was convinced by a talking snake to eat from a magical tree...

Sleep naked. Seriously. I started and it's the best thing I have done for my sleep
Just lay down, and sit. Have a good pillow and don't think about anything if you can.
If it's cooler outside than it is inside, open a window and let the fresh air in (make sure there's a screen on the window you don't want creatures jumping in while you're naked and asleep.)
Other than what I've already said, try to minimize the noise. I don't know what specific type of spot you live in in Las Vegas so opening your window may permit too much noise to get to you...repetitive nighttime things like crickets aren't bad noise, though.
If this isn't enough, then before you sleep:
* jack off (clears your mind of everything that you're worried about, can make a good end routine for the day, spends a little extra energy)
* read a joke book that you've already read at least once (clears your mind, puts you to sleep in a good spirit, you can remember the jokes better for retellage to chicks if you sleep right after you read them.)
As a habit: Go to bed earlier and wake up later (ie get more sleep), and sleep in the nighttime. Once you're used to a regular sleeping hours then you'll be able to sleep easierly.
maybe a good laugh will help me sleep.

I think my main problem is I don't need an alarm clock anymore, since I purposely work a later shift (swing shift). It's so nice not being woken up by an alarm clock. but consequently I sleep later and later. And I'm up later an later in the morning. I blame computer games for this as well. I'm usually up to 6:00 AM in the morning. So when I try to go to sleep any time before 6:00 AM it's damn near impossible.

one more question. How long after you lay down before you actually fall asleep?
I understand this can only be an estimate. I estimate me between 30 minutes and 1 hour on average.
As for sleeping naked. Currently I only sleep in my boxers. My penis always seems to get in the way when I sleep naked. If it wasn't so damned big...

It takes me about a minute or two to fall asleep. Then again I can sleep anywhere, on buses, planes, ships, etc.(\__/) 07/07/1937 - Never forget

Unless I am dog tired, it takes a minimum of one hour to fall asleep. I need silence and darkness (no stimulation), but once asleep I stay asleep. And I only need six hours rest to feel good the next day.
I just work with it; I plan my time so that quiet contemplation is done before I sleep. There is always something to think about.
Counting is useless for people like us, Dis, unless we are talking four digit numbers. When desperate for sleep, I prefer to imagine a dark space. I then think of an even darker place in the center and let it grow to fill my mind. Then an even darker center, growing, repeat as necessary.
The swing shift you mentioned is very, very bad. For quick and regular sleeping you need a standard time every day.
P.S. Yes, you can masturbate at Apolyton but you cannot wa*nk.Long live the Dead Threads!!
