Insomnia

Being a student and living alone gives you a lot of free choices. One of these is when to go to sleep and when to get up. Well this is no option for me right now. I suffer from freakin' INSOMNIA!!!
You know that that is your problem, when you lay in bed...wide awake....thoughts going through your head that won't let you fall asleep. That wouldn't be so bad if it weren't for the fact that I checked the time and it was 5:30 AM!!! Not so bad I thought...it was a Sunday morning. You will go to bed earlier the next night, right? WRONG!! How about going to bed early, just to lay awake until 4:30 AM and you have to get up in three hours! OH JOY! Then falling asleep in all your classes...EVEN BETTER!
But what is the cause of insomnia?
You know that feeling when something is bothering you and you don't know what? And then you get even more pissed, because you can't figure out what is bothering you? And then it gets worse. Impossible to sleep with that curse.
But what to do against it? I tried different things over the last few days and found some more effective:
1. Listen to some chilled DEEP HOUSE or music from DEER HOUSE MUSIC (the DEER is intended)! The music gets your thoughts away from what bothers you and the beat makes you sleepy. At least that is the effect it has on me.
2. Sure, not the most legit way, but probably one of the most effective ones: Drink a cup of tea and spike it with some RUM! Slept like a baby.
3. Figure out what is bothering you. How? Listen to different songs that cause different emotions. If there is a song that you listen to when you are into someone then try it. If your heart starts beating or you start crying: ET VOILA! You are falling for someone you poor bugger. My problem however was of different nature. I felt guilty for leaving my family and doing what was best for me. However the right songs got me over it. This must sound weird, but the song that did the trick for me was "The First Note is Silent" by High Contrast. And of course the support of my amazing family!
4. If nothing helps, choose a night in which you simply don't sleep. The next day you will be so TIRED, your brain won't have time to mess with you after you fell into your bed.


Hope I can give you guys a good night's worth of sleep!
