Is this a real thing? It seems like it's an impossible task.

I went to bed so early I am up already. Need a nap though before I dive into coffee.

So apparently this is easy for alot of you. My Dad wasn't a drinker but would do a shot before bed to help him sleep. Others in my family can sleep sober easily.

Back when I was doing physical labor as a teen I could fall asleep sober no problem but I don't get how some of you office guys fall asleep sober no problem.

How do you turn off your brain?

Depends on your job: is it high-stress or involve a lot of brain power? Try working out before going to work; when you get home, you'll be exhausted. If that doesn't work, go see a doctor for some sleep aids.

Just the right amount of caffeine.

Or having worked my ass off all day but even then I wake up at 3am and often can’t turn it off. Pretty mundane bullshit usually too.

Just inhale a half dozen helium ballons. Sleep should come easy after that.

Shut up, Stairs.

So none of you keep yourself awake at night as you rest your head on the pillow thinking about deep shit like if there is any kind of afterlife or not to stupid shit like what your batting stance would be like if you were in the mlb?

Struggle through one night where you only sleep maybe two hours or so. The next night, you should be exhausted enough that you can fall asleep.

Or else it's called "insomnia" or you're just a sociopath.

A night cap will help you fall asleep, but alcohol prevents you from REMing. Your brain keeps track of how much REM sleep you've been lacking, so if its the first time in a long time that you've gone to bed without drinking your brain will try to make up the deficit and you'll have some crazy vivid dreams. This is also why late stage alcoholics see pink elephants, their brains eventually just say "fuck it" and try to dream while they're awake.

Opposite for me.

Last few times I drank a lot, I was awake earlier than I normally am.

That's anxiety, you have too much time on your hands. Smoke a joint or do 150 pushups n take a walk.

Board outing. If Gay can do 150 pushups, I'll give him an hour, I'll be a good guy buys drinks for whoever shows up.

Lol. 312 is some sort of savant.

When I’m not laughing at the thought of Peeps trying to murder me, I have begun meditating. You should try it, Gay. There are apps you can download that will lead you in guided meditation. Headspace is the one I use. Like you, my brain seems to always be in overdrive and won’t ever turn off, but meditation has been a great tool to help.

I don't think about death, shit puts me in an existential funk. I'd recommend some porno and a valium

It sounds like you drink too much. Cut down to 2 to 3 times a week.

Try looking into biofeedback. It's quite amazing. It's almost like self hypnosis but its quite real.
