"Magic Number" of beers.

Flounder · 12-14-2011, 12:20 AM

I keep drinking, looking for that magic number to put me to sleep. But I cannot seem to find it

That would be considered a problem by some

.

I'm sure there has to be other ways to to put your body to sleep other than to inebriate yourself.

domestic beer?

Switch to tequila. It put one of my friends to sleep in a couple hours in August.

I have a rule when I drink no matter what it is...."thou shall not fall into slumber," things like that can happen, and sometimes worse!

Maybe try a book?

Seems to work for me ... or you could have kids, then you will always be tired. I would personally start with a book.

replicant_argent · 12-14-2011, 09:34 AM

I would suggest a sprint around the block or 4.

pektel · 12-14-2011, 09:43 AM

I have 2 kids. I have a harder time staying awake than falling asleep once 9:30pm rolls around.

Though I will say, there was a time before kids when I was going through a rough time, and routinely stayed up past 3am. Vodka always worked for me. 2 martinis. Or 2 strong screwdrivers.

Or you could walk to the driving range and pick up golf balls for hours.

This. Drinking is expensive, why waste the money just trying to fall asleep after you finally catch a buzz? Not only is exercise free, it's good for you on physical and mental levels, and once you push past the first half hour the natural opioids will make you feel great.

Beer is a tasty beverage, not a medication, and short of being so hammered you pass out, alcohol doesn't induce sleep in someone who isn't tired. Exercise, reducing caffeine intake during the day and not eating late at night all can help with insomnia. If you feel the need for a chemical remedy, 50mg of benedryl and or a valerian supplement will do far more for you then a couple of beers.
