I’ve got a problem in the bedroom that I’d like to share with you. For years I have tried to find the right position, have tried all sorts of props and even resorted to using the living room sofa. I’ve talked things through with my girlfriend and together we’ve sometimes managed it, but alone? Never – I simply can’t sleep in any other position than with face down and my body positioned at the edge of the bed.
At various stages of my life I have given a good attempt to sleeping face up. I’ve tried counting sheep, yet after the first few hundred, I can’t help but wonder where these sheep are coming from and where they are going, I can’t help but think they could be put to better use. I’m also convinced certain sheep are having more than one go at jumping the fence, I can’t tell them apart and it frustrates me. I’m not even convinced that sheep can jump, yet I am certain they can bite – I’m yet to get feeling back in my left hand.
So what other methods are there to assist in the process of falling asleep and what were the results?
