    I find that if I'm watching a bright screen(TV, Computer) for a while then go to bed right after it's hard to fall asleep. So I started getting off the computer early and getting in bed and pen spinning. I thought this would work because i would be lying down and it would be dark, so i would be in a sleeping environment.

    I did this a couple nights, but i noticed it had no effect...It might of even kept me up. I guess cause i was thinking about the tricks or something.

    I thought it would help like reading a book or something, because that helps me sleep.

    Do you do this and what do you think?

    i don't do that, but i do ps over my bed for like 20 minutes before i finally go to sleep. i would say, though, that Sleep helps you Penspin. and live.

    Sometimes if I have a hard time falling asleep I will pen spin for a bit and that sometimes work, it gets my mind off not falling asleep so I can try again.

    I usually don't have troubles falling asleep so I've only done this a few times.

    I don't think pen spinning helps you sleep at all. But, referring to your first sentence, it's actually been proven that bright screen lights actually stimulates you to stay awake...unless you're deathly tired. ><

    unless youre like power busting x300 with haituas and such, it shouldnt help you sleep.

    Ps had helped me sleep, no joke...i remember training up my continious extended T.As, and i gotta say, the amount of energy required to concentrate has made my eyes strain a bit at a time, until im so tired i just fall asleep without knowing if im still spinning xD

    I've had insomnia for as long as I can remember. Ps don't do jack. If you want to sleep, drugs. That always works for me.

    Spinning actually makes me stay awake, cause I wanna' practice more and it gets my blood flowing which doesn't help when you wanna' sleep

    Of course it doesn't you prick.

    The only things that make you sleep:

    Being tired
    Taking drugs that make you tired/fall asleep

    nvm, ugh. I didn't say it helped my sleep. I was just wondering if it helped anyone sleep. I guess not. Now i know that it helps no one sleep.
