Okay, I have a few test coming up..papers due and a career change coming very soon. Anyway, i'm a bit stressed.
Sometimes when I try to sleep I can't help but think about everything I need to do. I can't stop. ...it's a cycle, when I swim, i'm less stressed, but when it does creeps up on me I don't swim in he morning because i'm too tired in the morning to go, and I need to be rested for work which just makes me antsy the next day and so on. Well, I end up skipping days and days at the pool. Frustrating.
Swimming in the morning is usually the only time to go to be sure I can get a spot. How can I get myself to go in the morning, how can I sleep better at night? Have any of you come up with any strategies for this?
Cheers, :coffee:

Have any of you touting the benefits of melatonin ever had any significant side effects? I bought some for the next time I'm having a bad night but the label is scaring me off a bit. I'm in the 10% of people who have a stimulant effect when I take decongestants. Most people get drowsy. My heart races and I feel like I've taken speed or something. The label on my melatonin mentions one side effect being abnormal heart rhythms.
:confused: I thought decongestants were uppers and antihistamines were downers. Decongestants don't make me sleepy. Allergy meds do though ...
Melatonin does absolutely nothing for me. I must have a wretchedly guilty conscience ...
