But I always eat food like pizza, or ham sandwiches near to me bed time. I just ate a curry. I still sleep ok. Bad things to eat at night that I've been told about are peanuts or apples, they are hard to digest and its disturbing at night if you find it hard to sleep already. I usually smoke a fat spliff anyway so that helps too. The one about energy drinks is probably the most valid to me. But I always eat food like pizza, or ham sandwiches near to me bed time.

I usually wake up every two or three hours, depending on how long my dreams last. The one thing that actually puts me out for the night is fish. If I have broiled fish with a little lemon and seasoning on it, doesn't matter what side dish I have, I can truly sleep soundly! Wine seems to promote sleep deprivation for me. It helps me fall asleep fast, but a couple of hours later I can count on restless sleeping pattern the rest of the night. It's not just the alcohol that gives you the hangover.. Lack of sleep gives you almost the same affect. I wake up if I hear my dog snoring in another room. I usually wake up every two or three hours, depending on how long my dreams last.

If I drink coffee, it has to be early in the morning, before 9am. If I drink a diet soda with lunch at noon, I am sure to be up until after midnight, before sleep comes. I used to drink beer after 11pm, and it put me to sleep right away, but I had to keep getting up to go to the bathroom, and feeling like heck the next morning. But it did relax me after a long hard day in the factory. I can't sleep if I am hungry, so I get up and eat anything that is available, and sleep like a baby. All of this is true with me.
