I can't fall asleep

 

Check these out, too...

  • Your 5-minute nighttime skincare routine
  • Fact or fiction: Sweet scents lead to sweet dreams
It takes me over an hour to fall asleep after my head hits the pillow. Is something wrong?

Relax. Literally. Most likely, you aren’t getting enough down time before hitting the sheets. Many teens expect to zoom through homework, IMs and MTV, then zonk right out at bedtime. That’s not how falling into a peaceful slumber works.

Before beddie-bye, settle down by having a light snack, listening to mellow music or reading a book. Dr. Judith Owens, author of Take Charge of Your Child’s Sleep, explains that a nightly routine triggers your bod and brain that it’s time to get some zzz’s. Avoid watching the tube—that keeps you wired.

If you can’t fall asleep within a half hour of crawling under the covers, get out of bed—you don’t want to associate lying in bed with being awake. Get up and read a boring book (give War and Peace a shot), and hop back into the sack when you feel pooped. Sweet dreams.

MOD MOD MOD MOD. its me again.the one with the bgf where im sleeping over his house....I AM SLEEPING IN THE SAME ROOM WITH HIM HELP!!

 

Hey girl, don't stress.  I'm sure your bgf's parents are going to keep a close eye on you, and just think of it as a sleepover with your best gal pal, don't act differently.

Hey girl! You might just need a stronger brand of deoderant. Check out some different kinds at your local drugstore. They have some heavy-duty brands. If no results happen with those, head to the doc for a prescribed deoderant! Good luck!

Hey Smile I keep having dreams based around the same guy. He's about 18 and goes to my school, i'm not really interested in him and i've only talked to him about once. In one of the dreams he pounced on me and kissed me, and in another i shouted stuff at him but then i walked over and kissed him, but left half way through, and then in the most recent one he started following me and grinning. Kinda confused right now, any guidance?
Thanks x




Hey girl, I wouldn't worry too much about analyzing your dreams. Most times they don't mean anything. Just ask yourself if you really like him or not. If not, then don't worry! =]
