salam, does anybody here knows how to fix a messed up sleeping pattern? i simply couldnt sleep at night and end up on a deep one after subuh prayerimsad its very frustating....
 
salamualikum
well baisically it's best if you actually recite Qura'an before you go to bed && then do extra Nafl that will definately make you fall asleep.
Ma'assalama
 
One of my friends had the same problem. She would stay awake all night and then sleep during the day. She overcame it by setting her alarm in the morning and trying to stay awake during the day. By 8pm she would be knocked out. Alhamdulillah now she goes to bed at 10pm and sleept all nite :smile:

Try to do as much dhikr and inshaAllah you'll be ok.
 
salamualikum.
try taking red bull *am always knoced out* if not the sleeping tabz :D
Ma'assalama

thats excactly what i did when i had problem with my sleeping pattern trust it works and it feels so refreshing when you wake in the morning for the first time in a while:D
 
go visit your doc, ask for a 7 day prescription sleep aid like ambien provided you do the following to a T
1- once you committ yourself to sleep you can't do anything else but sleep
2- don't use your bed for reading or watching tv or lounging or snacking but just for the act of sleeping
3-if you find that you aren't sleeping and shifting to left or right, get up and do something else, elsewhere and come back to bed only when tired
4-wake up and sleep at the same time every day.. I mean even if you try for one night and end up sleeping only 3 hours then so be it, so long as you wake up at the time you assigned yourself.
5-don't eat anything after 8 in the evening
6-do some light exercise
7-seriously don't neglect tasbee7 (using sibha) reciting suras or listening to Quran.
stick to this plan with no interruptions and let us know if it worked for you
fi aman illah

MashaAllah thats really good. Its just about breaking a habit. You have to persevere inshaAllah. The first few days can be tiring. Alhamdulillah Ive never had a problem with my sleeping pattern but I remember trying to do an all-nighter in my uni days and I just couldnt stay awake after 2am :muddlehea red bull and pro plus didnt work :rolleyes:

This is from a previous post of mine on a similar thread.

aamirsaab said:
As promised, here are my findings. I appologise for the length, but it's as short as I can make it seeing as I have pages on the topic.

I mentioned earlier seratonin levels. I found out that it is infact melatonin. The more melatonin you have in your body, the easier it is to sleep. In your case, you could very well have a melatoning imbalance, however since as you stated it occurs at certain times of the day I will discuss another theory: exogenous zeitgebers - in plain english: an internal biological clocks that controls your sleep pattern.

The temperature is an example of a zeitgeber, the warmer it is the quicker you'll get to sleep. In other words, when you're about to read your namaz/salaat is the temperature generally warmer? Do you yourself feel warmer? If so, turn down the heating.

Another possible reason/ theory is that the light could be affecting your biological clock. In which case you'll have to experiment with exposure to light, again this should reset the biological clock to its norm.


That's pretty much all I can give on this topic. I would recommend seeking advice from a doctor though, especially if this sleep problem has been going on for some time (several months)
 
wen i had holidays frm uni i wud do this n stay up all nite like a gypsy :p

the best tin to do is make sure you wake up round like 8-9 am, den dont sleep for the whole day and go about ur normal activities and when its round 11-`2 u will automatically fall sleep and then the cycle will continue :D genius eh:p yesh i no :shade:

or u can jus take sleepin pills :D

yh if you wana go ahead, but am saying to the other dudette to have a pint of 'red bull' to make her go asleep inshallah.
Ma'assalama
 
salam, lol am happy for the replies. thanks!! i'll try some inshaAllah but certainly not sleeping pills lol. and i dont know how true this is but i heard that red-bull is being banned in thailand for some health reason. oh and caffein keeps me awake:D
 
:salamext:

thats an interesting thread.....as regard the replies.

an internal biological clocks that controls your sleep pattern.
can somebody provide some more info regarding this? Like bro aamirsaab mentioned regarding how to help oneself to sleep. Ofcourse the opposite advice would follow for keeping oneself awake.
What i would like to know is how to control your internal biological clock?

jazakAllah khair in advance.
:wasalamex
 
:sl:
I'll check through my notes at home, if not tonight, then tomorrow inshallah, and post any relavant I can find.
