Does anyone have any suggestions on the best way of getting a good nights sleep?

2007-02-14 06:46:36 · 9 answers · asked by bigbaps 3

Let's say you sleep for the exactly same amount of time in hours and minutes on two consecutive nights. For example, we'll pick 8 hours.

On the first night, you sleep 8 hours all the way through -without waking up in the middle of the night. On the second night, you also sleep 8 hours - but you wake up once in the middle of the night and stay awake for 15 minutes. You fall back asleep after the 15 minutes and then sleep 15 minutes later in the morning to equal the same 8 hours as the night before.

The question is: Will you feel just as good with the 15 minute sleep interruption as you will with the continuous sleep - provided you sleep the same amount of hours and minutes? Or will you feel better with the continuous sleep?

I have experienced a bit of a personality clash with a few doctors when it concerns my children.
If a Dr. chooses the medical field as his/her profession, why does that make (some of) them feel being a Dr. makes the rest of us less intelligent?
As a parent, I (very often) accurately know the diagnosis of my child before I seek the legal authority of a prescription. Does that offend (most of) you?
I feel like you should listen to me tell you what is wrong with my child and then make a diagnoses, instead of bickering with me over the knowledge I have of my own flesh and blood.
If I have questions, and DON'T know what's wrong, I will clearly state that at the beginning of the consult, and interject when asked specific questions.
I know not all of you are this way, but what makes those of you who are so arrogant?
Respect the fact that I am the mother. Don't challenge my medical knowledge when you walk in the door, and I'll respect the fact that you are the Dr. by career choice.

Should living organ donors and family of deceased donors be paid and if so who should pay them, the recipient, recipient's medical insurance or the government? And finally how much should they be paid?

For the past three or four days, my stool has been a bright green color. I though this was cause of cake frosting at first, but it's been going on too long, since it's been two days since I last ate any. Could anything else be causing this?

I've been drinking apple cider vinegar the last three days, though I add baking soda to turn it from acidic into alkaline. This is an attempt to rid my body of candida yeast overgrowth. I'm also taking oil of wild oregano. Could either of these be the cause? Could it also be the dead candida that is causing the green color?

Most of the time I don't feel tired until 2 or 3 in the morning. Which is not good when I have an 8 o'clock biology class.

I'm going to buy a humidifier for my son's room, does anyone recommend a brand? There are so many types and I don't want to get one that is cheap and doesn't do anything but I don't want to spend a ton on money on one that is as good as a cheaper one! Help! Has anyone bought one from a drugstore? Target? Walmart? These are all place close by that I would be going to. Thanks in advance!

Yesterday I would feel dizzy when I was up moving around. Almost seemed like how you feel before passing out. The last night and today I have a pain in my right side. More of a pressure than a severe pain but can definately feel it.

I don't start feeling sleepy untill four in the morning, and I have class early so I have to be awake by seven. But when I FINALLY fall asleep at five, I don't even hear my alarm at seven. I can't sleep... i generally just stay awake all night and sleep between classes, but that's not really a good plan, so any advice would be welcome! And just to throw this out there, I exercise every day for at least an hour... so that wont help... i've actually upped my workout time ;-p

I have trouble sleeping at night. I have to be up during the day time for work and kids but I can't get to sleep before 3am most of the time. Is there something natrual I can do for this. The doctor aren't helping. And sometimes when I finally fall asleep and have nothing to do the next few days I will sleep for 12 to 24 hours but once I wake up it takes for ever to get back to sleep and I have a hard time stay on a schedule. Does anyone know of something I can do?
