    Did any of you have a teddy bear or plushie you had when you were younger that helped with sleeplessness?

    I remember quite fondly I had quite a few teddy bears that I wish I could have kept except in this family of hand-me-downs my mom decided I had outgrown them and gave them to my niece...

    I only ever had one teddy bear and that was a Golliwog.

    These days i usually listen to mellow music or try let my thoughts drift me off to sleep.

    Well also I forgot to mention that I cannot sleep without coffee.

    Ironic, huh? Despite the caffiene content, I am restless without coffee.
    Life is best for those who enjoy it, difficult for those who analyze it and worst for those who criticize it.

    Does anyone have any (Non-Alcoholic) comfort foods/drinks that help them get to sleep, ala warm milk?

    I really like dried fruits or chocolate, and surprisingly a can of Pepsi or other carbonated soft drink (Despite any presence of caffeine) also helps.

    Warm milk with honey.

    Worked when my rabbit died, worked when I was sick.

    It's a long time since I've had it though. It has this comforting warmth about it.

    there is no easy way to fall asleep for me. usually i lie in bed for around 3 or 4 hours before i doze off, only to wake up a few hours later seemingly for no reason.

    it sucks.

    I cant sleep without a heavy duvet on top of me, even in the blistering summer, if i sleep with a thin sheet I feel too exposed, I like the feeling of safety you get from a big thick duvet.

    Same here

    If I can't get to sleep I just read and read until I have to read a paragraph a couple of times for me to understand it then I know I'm tired enough and just lay back and relax into sleep.

    I also find that if I'm lying in bed and cant get comfortable enough to relax, I just get up, go out into the kitchen, wait until I feel cold, then back into bed and everything's fine

    I have trouble sleeping alot, I usually go downstairs onto my couch, it's cooler downstairs, I have a wool type blanket which is relaxing in it's own and a movie usually sends me on my way. But this is usually a last resort at like 2-5am
