My mom asked me to post this question about my dad. He drinks a few beers at about 4 or 5 o’clock, eats dinner, then goes to bed because he has to wake up early in the morning for work. My mom gets barely any sleep because of his snoring. By the sounds of things, the doctor said its his drinking. Is there some kind of trick or homemade way to stop this? Please help, my mom gets no sleep and pretty soon she’s going to have to move to the couch!!

Solutions to Sleeping Problems, minus medication?




my boyfriend and father have one problem in common, both are kept awake at night by anxiety. They each have personal, financial, and other problems on their mind that either keep them awake, or cause them to wake up in the middle of the night.

I know that my dad takes sleeping pills occasionally, but my boyfriend does not want to, becuase he doesn’t like the idea of it, and I agree that I think there must be a better way to solve the problem.

These two men are the most important people in my lives, and I’m worried for both. If anyone has any suggestions on tips to help people fall asleep/ stay asleep, or anything that might help I would much appreciate it.
in response to Quigly, this might be a good solution I didnt think of for my boyfriend, but my father runs every single day, which doesn’t seem to help him.

Are sleep problems hereditary?




My sisters, grandmother and aunt sleep walk.. my mom as night terrors.. my cousin talks.. and my dad snores when they sleep. I don’t do any of that. Is that kind of stuff hereditary? Will I experience it later in life? Or is it just them?

I told my dad I needed to go to the eye doctor because things I used to be able to see are now blurry. He says its probably eye fatigue (Blurry eye sight caused by spending too much time in front of the TV or Computer) but I want to know what is the difference. How can you tell if you have eye fatigue or that you are losing some of your eyesight?

for many years, i had sleep problems
i sleep late and wake up late, and my sleep hours shift hours later then the day before
its not just a habit, i believe i hear its also little related to genetics, which i get from my dad
like i need at least 9 hours of sleep to not feel like crap throughout the day

but is there any methods that can be advised to me?
will sleeping LESS than my natural need of sleep be bad for my health?

7mm Remington Magnum=Ouch?




So I went to my first gun show to buy my first rifle. I found this one Winchester Model 70 with a black synthetic stock, 26" barrel, 3-9 power Simmons scope (I know, I know), and chambered in 7mm rem mag. At the time, I hadn’t known about the recoil at that point in time. My dad told me the 7mm is a very accurate round that shoots flat, and hits hard. I was sold on the idea of a Winchester because I’ve heard great things about the model 70. Plus my dad loves his old Teddy Roosevelt 94 lever action chambered in 30-30. So the first day out at the range I assumed I would be sitting there putting some rounds down range, sighting in the crappy Simmons. Unexpectedly the first shot was placed right in the bulls eye at 100yds. Even more unexpectedly I was hit by a massive wall of force, concentrated on my shoulder. OUCH. I had just realized what shootablity meant in an instant. Not only is the 7mm rem mag an expensive cartridge, but its got some a** to it. I then thought "maybe I shouldered it wrong." So I readjusted accordingly and cycled a fresh 150gr. into the chamber. The second round I may have been anticipating slightly, for the round hit just outside of the center. The recoil was, again, punishing. I put a grand total of 3 rounds down range that day with my new Winchester. I spent the rest of the time with my 1911, sulking, at the pistol range.

Now before you go saying GET A LIMBSAVER YOU P*SSY, I want to know if I shouldn’t have gotten the 7mm in the first place and found a .308 or even a little .223.
What are your opinions on my Winchester?

I just took 2 sleeping pills (they’re blue and gel filled) and now I can’t keep my eyes focused on anything, I fell like I’m in a dream and all of my body parts are tingling. should I have just taken one? 2 didn’t seem that bad but now I’m not sure.
I didn’t read the instruction but I’m pretty sure you only take one. My dad takes them & he only takes one. My eyes feel all heavy and my throat is warm and everything is blurry.

My dad has sleeping problems were in the middle of the night he feels like there is someone on him or something of alot of weight on top of him, and then he can’t breathe. He tries talking or screaming but he can’t as hard as he tries. He can’t move at all. He tries so hard to move around with much struggle and when he finally does, he wakes up and is sweating alot. This happens alot to him. Other than just a nightmare, he thinks it might be related to stress. Is there a name for this? Thanks.

Bipolar Disorder?




my mother doesn’t believe that i have BD or manic depression (basically the same thing). but anyways. i’m 14 and my dad has ADD and Bipolar Disease. i don’t have ADD, but i really think i have Bipolar Disease. i have frequent mood swings, at least three every day. from a very low, lagging feeling to a very high, hyper state. my mom only sees me about two hours a day, if that, so she doesnt know me that well, and wont take me to get help for Bipolar Disorder. do you think i have it? because i want to know if it’s just me that thinks i have it.
i dont want to have bipolar disorder, you know. who would WANT to have it? i’m just concerned because i’ve made several suicide attempts due to mood swings. and i dont want to end up dead because no one would listen

Dad having trouble sleeping with CPAP machine?




My dad has recently been diagnosed with Sleep apnea and is using a CPAP machine at night. He’s been having a hard time sleeping with it and so I wanted to get him something to help make it easier for him sleep. Does anyone have any suggestions on what may make it easier for him? I was thinking of getting a noise machine to help him relax and take his mind off of the mask on his face; would that help at all?

Is there something wrong with me?? (sleep problems)?




Last night and mostly every other night, i didn’t sleep, like at all! I went to bed at 11pm, then didn’t even fall asleep until 2am. I rolled back and forth, sat up and down, walked around my room (in the dark) lol I just couldn’t get to sleep!! Then, the next day, like after school, i fall asleep for 2-3 hours, when i’m asleep it’s like i’m IN A COMA! My dad told me that he triedto wake me up twice, i do not recall at all him being there! Like i seriously don’t remember him coming in to wake me up, but he said he did come in twice! I’m so scared! How do i not remember him coming in and moving me and practically yelling to get me up? What is up with this? How do i fix my sleeping problems? Thanks…
